Rumor that ClubCobra is going bye-bye.

I have been coming here since purchasing my roadster in 2004. I'd hate to lose the support and info this site provides not to mention the entertainment. Facebook has limited value with me. If I don't hear from or see any of you guys again best of luck!!

As a person working on a new build, the site is great for info but has it's issues. Would love to see the thing fixed up and working like one would want. I use FB and you can keep it in terms of trying to find past posts and all the spam you get from them. If a plausible game plan can be done and put into production to better the site, why not pass the hat after to say.... see it is fixed can you donate to the cause (like other sites do). Nothing mandatory, just those willing to toss in some coin to assist in expenses.

I am all for that. I would really hate to see this site go away.

That was tried for the current forum. The results are what you have today.

Forums with a membership fee simply fail. Half of the car forums I used to belong to had some kind of membership/fee structure (pay to post, member benefits that open up hidden areas, etc). Today, not a single one is so. Half disappeared altogether, the rest went with no membership and voluntary remittance that does not cover costs. The only one I belong to that retains some kind of fee structure is the Ford GT forum (which allows one to post ads, but whose benefits have significantly dwindled.)

I'm just alerting anyone thinking of "buying" this that it is a pretty high burden to bear.

Good luck whatever you do.
