The vague nature of that post is entirely down to me not knowing what it is yet because we've not got the Wiki in place, I'm not trying to be obtuse.


Can I have a staff role?

Correct, that's part of the problem. And the one that will cause most hassles in the future.

On a serious note, great to see there are plans for the future of the Site.

Must be the only website that I have visted nearly every day since 2001 (with the exceptions of my breaks).

Its still one of the fastest and slickest... durable simplicity

Can I publicly say I'm not going to ban on will just because someone rolls in here and tells me to ban.

I'm of course acting in the best interests of the site as I see them in the first post. If that includes bans or tellings off then so be it, whatever it needs. I would prefer things nice all the time but you can't have everything. It's more of a journey than a destination, that. But yeah, still going on.

Yes I do miss this, but we also must be realistic in terms of having regular contributed content. Entirely part of the picture if there's a good supply of worthy vehicles, which is out there.

I think 1 a month would be a good thing,.

A decent write up about it, some pics, and a spec list.

I'd be interested in reading that sort of thing.

I'd love to see this feature return too, it was the first thing I seen when I first visited which made me sign up. Would be good to have a Q&A type thing where the owner would answer certain questions erc.

If it did come back and you needed help with organising a entry/voting thread etc on a monthly basis I'd volunteer myself to organise it

Nice one and good luck Ian.

Bringing Sam onboard with Corsagsi is a good idea. Sams a good man.

Yes very much, I'm still attempting to get him to a show but he's still involved in a technical capacity.

Been saying for years this site needs a general car chat and corsa chat. I dont really follow corsa's any more but its nice to come on here and see what people are up too!

Projects and builds should be a sub forum of each car chat and corsa chat so you can follow either and not have to see them all mixed up

Im using VXR online which does this, love it as im not going through pages to find astra vxr's

Its good this site is simple to use BUT it has to stay corsa focused to keep the new traffic

He initially came on board when he was working for a hosting company but he's now a developer for an investment bank and we co-locate the hosting.

Agree on the feature car possibly making a come back, seems a popular thing tbh. And i figure a lot of people would enjoy it from a thread i made a while back.

Fair play to you though Ian, seems like you've got some big plans coming. I look forward to the progress. Keeping any deadlines? haha
