RA has gone through a similar upheavel two years ago when Active botched the Cool Running integration. A large group of users came to RA and called it home ever since.

And I am one of those who migrated over here two years ago and would never consider going back.
Thanks Eric!
It's quite amusing for me as i've been actually been using this site for a couple of years now... I don't participate in the threads much, but use the log and yearly mileage bunny groups... somehow just because i'm part of a group that migrates here, i'm an invader / outsider???
I think we will integrate fine... as you say it's the impact of a large group seen as newbies (even when some are not) making a lot of request to help us feel at home I do think this is a great site, and I will continue to use it in some form for years to come regardless of what our half marathon thread does!

Hi, Joe and everybody -- as others have said, I'm here for the group, not the site. I'll go wherever the group goes. I didn't have much trouble at Active and I do like them for race registrations...but otherwise I have no great allegiance.
Just leave a breadcrumb trail wherever you go so I can follow

Okay, before I hit the road to Boston this morning, I've got a question to ask that has been bugging me all week.
Where is all of this negativeness coming from that some of the current members aren't playing nice in the sand box?
Maybe it's occuring in other groups or something, but I haven't seen (not that I've read every post) anyone in this group do anything but welcome you here and in some cases say hello to old CR friends.

Larry - I've sent you (and Eric) an email explaining the reason why we have decided to move back. It really didn't have to do with any of the people here. The "negativeness" as you suspected was from another Forum. It stemmed from a "feature request" I had made.
For The Thunder!
Thanks for clearing that up for me. I just kow on this thread, there is a Really "GREAT" bunch of people and I wasn't getting a negative vibe from it.
Any way, good luck going back to Active. When and if you and anyone else changes their mind, they know where to find us.
For me, I have no interest in going back to Active
Hi guys,
I also wasn't part of the original group, but I did start over at CR with my running log. Running Ahead made me feel welcome and I really love Erics log especially the GPS feature. I've been posting here for over a couple years and have no intention of moving my log again.
I see you guys have decided to move back to Active, so good luck to all of you. I'm sorry but I won't be following.
Will anyone be staying in this group here? I'd really like to keep it going, but if not, that's okay too.
Lu
Us regulars will be staying here, it'll be interesting to see if any of Joe's Army goes AWOL and stays here or now that they've joined and been here, will stop in once in awhile.
I'll still be here! I checked out Active's site for grins, and was not impressed with how long the pages take to load! That would get annoying after awhile.
I made it 5 miles with my friend this morning, but it wasn't pretty. Geez, slack off for a few weeks, and look what happens!! Ack.
Mrs. Larry Sugarman
Sorry that some people reacted badly, I can only say I never received that sort of response at any time since I have been here. It was nice to meet you all and good luck with your running!
