Apparently the CR folks felt the site needed to change for some valid reasons. It is their right and I don't think anyone can deny them that. However, it is also the right of the user to choose that which best fits their needs.
Change for the sake of change is equal to to staying for the sake of staying. The CR site is gone, the people who created CR have choosen not to continue the log they created.
If you like Active...stay. If you do not...play the field and see what else is out there. But don't stay for the sake of staying. |

| For whatever reason, Active has been unable to fix the "system error" that keeps me from even using the old Coolrunning stuff. More frustrating has been the fact that I receive an email of every post to a forum that I once posted in (there were several) and I can't change the settings. If anyone's in the same boat, my workaround is that I was able to modify my "primary email" and I just changed it to the active support email ("support@active.com"). I don't know yet if this will work, but it was worth a shot. I would not have done this but for the fact that every effort I make to deal with active support ends up with them ignoring me. |

Save if you can get into the threads then we can fix this. Any thread where you are getting reply's from - you go there and look on the left hand column at the top it will give you the option to stop receiving emails.
I just can't get in so I've given up. Am quite happy here though. |

| I was perfectly willing to give CR some time. Then I started getting emails every time someone responded to a thread. I received over 200 in one day. So, I signed up with a bogus email address and logged in to an empty house. The place is dead. Hardly any threads. Right now there isn't any reason to go to CR. |

All good things must end. It was CR's time. If RA gets as big as CR did they may be faced with the same problems. 99% of the reason I'm a member of any of these sites is for the running log. RA's is better than active's, therefore I am here. But I will, just like I did at CR, be exporting my log down to my computer on a monthly basis.

I switched to RA because I was not impressed with Active's log. I spent some time trying to find a replacement website for my running log and found RA to be the best for my needs. I basically found Active's log too cumbersome.
Just my $0.02. |
