Arbo,
When only one person has a negative opinion of you, you can ignore it. When the majority of people with whom you come in contact has a negative opinion of you, you must might wish to pay attention.
The problem is that once you became the moderator of the AMA forum, you began to operate it to suit your own agenda. The AMA is far from perfect, but you would not allow anyone to cast any opinion that did not mirror yours. You caused that forum to fail simply because of your totalitarian methods. Had the AMA allowed the forum to grow and become a sounding board for the way that the membership wants the organization to proceed, then we might have actually been able to steer the AMA in the direction which we would like it to grow. As it is, there is still only the Good ol' Boy mentality running the show, and even worse, only the Leader Membership has a real voice in the operation thereof.
I don't have the club problem that most have to be able to fly. I can go out of my shop and set the model down and take off. I have been a member for many years, and I'll be damned if I'll allow people such as yourself to run me off.
In responding to my previous post, you tried to turn my comments as if I had been talking about someone else. Let me make one thing clear. You were the person to whom I was commenting. You are the sole reason for the demise of the AMA forum. Who's toadie will you become now?
Bill, Bottom Feeder #1
AMA 4720
Thank You Bill !
You have said it perfectly .
Now , before I leave this thread for good , I'd just like to say this ;
A few days ago , I read that the AMA forum was to close . No surprise , really , since hardly anyone ever posted there due to Arbo's bullying . I went there to see if it was still open , and yes , yes it was . So here I'm reading a Frank Muroc thread , and it appeared that either Frank was talking to himself , or that the thread was edited . I asked about the fractured thread , asked why it looked so odd , and promptly had my post deleted rather than answered . Ok , so , I ask again , this time maybe a bit peeved that what will probablly be the forum's last thread should show the kind of censorship that Arbo killed the forum with in the first place .
Now , Since I know all too well of Arbo's RC Truth meltdown , and his attempts to sign on there repeatedly after being banned (even went so LOW as to sign on using another RCer's already established internet ID) , I was a threat to Arbo's cred , which he doesn't seem to get that he threw in the dumpster when he supposedly "sold his soul to the AMA bigs" , and was promptly banned at the dying site . Of course , the "excuse" was that I had been banned before , and so even the slightest contention was reason to ban me now . Well ! Come to find out , I had NEVER been banned there before , and of course , this ban now is without merit . Did Paul , upon finding out that , reverse his mistaken action ? Of course not ! What good control freak would ever admit they made a mistake ?
I've now heard enough of Paul's blather about blaming the AMA's bigs for his censorship of opinions at the forum . He says that in a way of "it wasn't ME , they FORCED me to edit out everything that wasn't kissy kissy I love the AMA" . Sorry , I call BS here cause on the one hand he says they gave no support whatsoever , and yet on the other claims they SO micromanaged it that the decisions wern't his ?
The AMA didn't kill the forum . Arbo did . End of story
