You didn't have to name names. Anybody and everybody KNOWS that's a Roy Henderson owned station and has been since 2001. Some of us even remember YOU stating that YOU were operating Point Comfort's allocation at unlicensed parameters, completely outside of the designated and licensed coverage area. Want to try again, or should I go hunting for the threads that you yourself posted that specific information?
It's crap like THIS that makes people have a hard time believing and/or trusting you or your motives, Joe. Everybody would be talking about 94-1 KJAZ if it weren't taboo? Puh-leeze. In Houston? Where it has no signal? C'mon man, get serious.
I really wanted to believe in you, Joe, even though my natural instinct told me different. I sincerely hoped you could really make a difference in this market and clean up some of the rogue outfits operating around here, but that's not what it's all about, now is it?
It's time to take a real stand, friends and fellow radiogeeks. One that is firm and properly voices our displeasure with the unfortunate turn our forum has taken, this last year or so. I'm resting the fingers for awhile, in effect boycotting radiodiscussions, and I ask that you all do the same. Let the Houston forum go completely quiet for a month or two, with absolutely no contributions from any of us oldtimers whatsoever, and we'll just see how long before Frank MUST take permanent action. I shudder to think what the forum is going to look like in 60 days without our regular upstanding contributors. I'm already ashamed of what it's become without once regular contributors such as adguy, Chuck Tiller, jd, John Davis, and the like. Perhaps this is the effort needed to restore some of their faith in our little slice of the community.
No need for a PM, Joe. I haven't answered one from you yet, and I don't anticipate starting now. You're not the only one that has had a significant uptick in private conversations. There are likely more of us here about to pull up stakes and walk away, than there are of those sending you money and encouragement. I'm not scared to touch any subject whatsoever. I, too, was threatened with litigation several years back by one Roy Henderson. That's not the problem I have with how you conduct yourself. It's the chicken shit way you go about it, such as inquiring about a facility that you know pretty much everything there is to know about it, but pen a thread playing the whole "what's this station?" card, hoping to back door your way into another Roy Henderson thread, that YOU aren't supposed to be involved in at all. You're trying to play the rest of us for a fool, and some of these contributors I consider friends, so this is where the line is drawn.
Frank, the choice is yours. Do something about this, or sit back and watch your contributors fade to black. I'm holding #1, and my number just got called. If you're going to allow this to continue, please signify as such by closing my radiodiscussions profile and account, that way I'll know where you stand and so will others when they see that my account has been deleted.
Now, the story has ended.
