Phix, Cyclone, Green73ta, Pinecone, etc. Several folks quit posting on DS and wanted a more "enthusiast-oriented" forum or something like that (because you know we spend a lot of time on minivans and hybrids here at DS...but that's for another discussion entirely).
Anyway, out of curiosity, I checked by and CS appears to be just about dead. Last post on the main page was January 9th. Last post in the showroom (like DS's car garage) was January 26th. Last post in good car/bad car was January 10th. As for the racing subforums, Feb 24th for Formula 1, January 4th for rallying, and December 5th for miscellaneous. So have all the folks who left DS to go to CS now given up car forums entirely, or what? |

They can always come back with their tails between their legs.

Phix is never coming back, and Cyclone jumps in here every now and again. Dunno about the others, though.

He has genuinely fallen off the face of the planet at this point. I think he's gone for good.

Green73ta always had some pretty good input into the forums, so I'll miss him.
Pinecone was kind of a nut, but in a good way. The other too I won't miss as much honestly. But I wouldn't exactly hate it if they came back. |

I lurk here from time to time. Phix is MIA, I pissed him off disappeared.
CS is slow but not dead, I'm just lazy. |
