On November 1, 2014, C3VR turns 13!

Thank you to all the C3VR members that are active in our forums. Thank you to all the C3VR members that talk about and promote C3VR to other C3 owners. And thank you especially to those C3VR members that have a paid level of membership!

Without your support C3VR would not be of any use to anyone, and would simply not exist.  Without the financial support of paying members C3VR would not be able to stay afloat in "The Cloud."

We truly have something special here, like a close-knit family. Something that I think is hard to find on other sites. Those that "get it", really enjoy it. 

Thank you!

Oh man C3VR............a TEENAGER...........?

We can really thank a couple of heavy (tech) guys of late (and long before).......as in Joel and Sarge, but really everyone who contributes in our prized group can be thanked (even... Ebo).

Long live C3VR!

Hey, who says we're not juveniles anymore?! I can remember what I was like at 13 and if C3VR is anything like it, we're in for some serious trouble for the next 3-5 years! Seriously though, I am VERY happy to have found this group (hard to believe I've been here six years!). I think my signature line says it all... Happy Birthday!!

Ever wonder why this forum was started the day after Halloween?
Ever wonder why it has been so successful?
Ever wonder why there are so many great people on this site?

Me neither, but I "get it".

Congratulations and THANKS to Adam!!!

HAPPY 13TH BIRTHDAY TO C3VR.  Beer

HAPPY 13 YEARS!
Thanks for keeping C3VR up and running Adam. And thanks to all the brains around here for all the help over the years so I could tackle repairs and upkeep myself rather than sitting there scratching my head wondering what the heck is wrong.Thumbs Up  Made a lot of friends here that we really enjoy getting together with whenever we can.
