Goodbye, Daily Deals

Clearing the clutter from CCF.

Daily Deals, the near-daily blog post featuring a half broken list of Facebook Marketplace cars you've been getting spammed to your inbox for months, is coming to an end.

If you're a daily reader of Daily Deals, don't worry too much. I'm making a new page that will update daily with good deals found on ccf.com/cars. I'll post about it when it's live.

So why pull Daily Deals? Because it severely clutters the news feed. We have actual content we've created going up multiple times per week, and I want the feed to be nice and clean, a showcase for all of our work. Unfortunately, DD gets less views than our features, and really just looks bad in its current state. We're trying to at least look half professional, here, after all. This is also to improve our mailing list. I only want to deliver you a morning email if there's actually something on the site to read.

In other site news, Ebay listings are returning, and I'm going to start sunsetting the forum in favor of /cars inside the next month. If you've bookmarked any of the forum pages, they'll start redirecting to /cars but filtered to your chosen make/model/generation. The forum has been a spam magnet from jump and is made obsolete by /cars, so it's time to stop supporting it.

I know for most of you, this doesn't really affect you in any way. If you have any concerns about DD or the forum, let me know. /cars is, for the most part, much more user friendly than the forum, but if I've missed or broken something, just shoot me an email and let me know.
