I go to the C3 Forum as well and there are some arrogant people there.  They seem to take delight in putting others down who have a different opinion...not wrong mind you...just different.

I've seen real flame wars there begin with simple discussions of who likes what wax best!  They get really insulted and insulting when you don't take their opinion as the word of God.

This place is mucho better...it's like everyone here is more of a family looking out for one another.

Hmmmm...there are "other" forums out there??? Whoda thunk it?
I also have membership in a couple of "other" places, such as CAC, C6VR, NCRS Tech Board, and the Chevy Forum. I found CAC to be little too stiff for my tastes, and the responses I got from my posts were less than encouraging.
I am also a member of a couple of transmission/trade forums, but they also suffer from the "My idea/info is better than yours" syndrome, at times, but...if I post a theory, or a request for help, I'll have 100 responses by the end of the day.

There just ain't no place like home(C3VR)...there's no place like home...there's no place like home... there's no place like home...

Big%20smileIf you have a C3 this is by far the best site! I am new to owning a C3 and the people on this site make you feel like family. The replies to forums are so quick and filled with info from people that care. I know I am at the right site with people that share the same love for the C3!Thumbs%20Up

I spend time on all the C3 Forums, I believe they all have something to offer from time to time. C3VR is by far the most pro-active, followed closely by CF. Luckily, there is an Arizona froum as well, not all C3, but still some local fun!

Sounds like I should check out the Corvette Forum, 'cause I'm getting nothing out of the C5 Registry so far. I see a total of only about 40 posts in the last three months!!! My WIFE talks more about C5s than these guys do!LOL

I've given up on all the sites except for this one. There's nothing better!

I too belong to some other corvette forums but I agree with Joel, There is no place like home! and C3VR is Home.  There is just a different attitude and maturity level here it seems.
