Anyone check out Downonthedeck's website? It just closed, what a shame, that was one of my favorite sites.

This is F'ed up!!!!! DOD was my main 3D site to go to!!!! Somthing bad happened....there is a statement where the site should be saying his family was threatened. Pretty bad when the competition has to do this.

I believe the last 2 lines might indicate what happened. Although it would be hard to believe. You never know though.

I recently got banned from DOD even though I had never posted. Seems as though my name (real name = screen name) did not set well with Joe. So I asked ***, he replied with a phone number, which I called. I got the banning worked out and heard the short version of a bizzare story. Don't bother asking me to repeat it here, in email, or PM. I won't. Just that something is weird going on. I wouldn't be surprised to see it back up after the details have been worked out.

Were you asked not to tell? I just read in the other (of many to come I imagine) DOD thread what Joe posted. Forum competition aside, aren't we all a family of hobbyists who should support each other? Can't wait to hear what the whole story is.

i hope youre right Chuck. DOD was an inspirational site to many of us. not sure of the %^&* that is going on, but if you know of any way i can help, let me know. who are the parasites that are causing this?(probobly need to know basis) anyway, if there is anything that i, or anyone else, can do to bring back what we find informational, let us know. thanks

I know Joe has had "forum issues" in the past, however, I thought he had gotten past all that. Its a good site, albeit biased to his latest sponsers, but still a good site. I am sure he'll have it up and running again.

No, as far as I know it's an ongoing issue, but I'm not gonna spread any rumors. From what I understand, it's a story that has been circulating but I don't know how to or care to verify or refute the story either way, it's not that important to me.

This is nuts! I'm definitely in the dark here. Death threats over RC planes? DOD was my home away from home. Now some wacko has ruined it. Seems like there's always one (or more) in every crowd. Some people just can't stand seeing other people enjoying themselves. I'd love to help, too, but I don't even understand what's happening here.[]

He didnt even tell the mods on the place???

now tell me if im wrong, but from what ive read so far(from a few sites) that this is corporate strong arming. please tell me im wrong. if this is true, im gonna have to list their names with another that i wont buy from. i agree with MHawker that we need to support our hobby brothers.

DOD made my first 1/4 Scale what it is today. I would have been lost without Joe's site. Its a shame when politics(MONEY) can control a hobby and it enthusiasts to this sort of extent. I dont know what I will do without DOD, but IT and JOE will ALWAYS have my support. I appreciate the fact that noone is spreading any rumors, that is not what we need right now. Mr. Joe Hunt has touched many lives and made the hobby a much better experience for many, my heart is with him.

all i wanted to do is play a video to put me to sleep so i could dream about flying.

This is insane. Joe makes some pretty damaging claims without backing anything up on that little 'exit' message. Considering I've dealt VERY closely with Carden Aircraft over the past 10 years, I find his claims highly suspect.

Joe really seems to me to be a stand up guy... I don't think he would make unfounded claims. I hope that site comes back to life.. it was my favorite site for 3d info. He had a BIG audience on that site. Maybe Carden thought he was making too many people lean towards other brands of planes. I know I will keep an eye on this, and if Carden had anything to do with it they will never get a dollar of my money. There is no place for this sort of thing in a freaking hobby. I do agree with you though, that he should have offered something other than a parting shot about these companies, to help back up his claim.

Flyfalcons

That's just it, people should not believe unfounded claims. At this point I would be very suspect of anything posted on his site.

I agree Ryan, but this situation bears watching I think.. I hope the truth does come out, one way or the other.
