I was on the old FF forums and i went of holidays and came back and the place was dead quiet. It took me about 2 weeks to work out that the new independant .au forum was made and most people had jumped ship.

When the old XR Club website disappeared an email went out amongst members telling us to head here...
(mind you some were already members apparently So I guess it is a recommendation.. Not one regret either, have met some brilliant people. Have had help to quit smoking after reading so many great stories from others that had quit... But does it matter that I have replaced one addiction with another... IMHO no, no it does not.. The forum is an awesome addiction to have!!! e

Same as above, came from the old forums with everyone else, thanks to a handy PM from Casper very late in 2004. Certainly no regrets although Id like to be able to see some of the old threads from the other place as some of them have sentimental value for me since I met my partner (Cobra) on those forums.

The most popular method of finding this place (coming from FF.com) is the one not on the poll!

I left FF.com so I didn't even know this one existed until Carratt mentioned it to me in an email. Joined up and here I am.

I got an email from them (FF.com.au) and then signed up shortly thereafter. Yes, the old FF.com is completely dead now!

I was looking for some sort of XR or Falcon owners club in the NT when I got my BA. Google turned this up.
