i'm trying my best to preserve the original thought for this site which was just a unsanctioned add-on for dtv. but they are going out of their way to make that harder and harder to achieve.
i'm trying to save members from getting banned............dtv is making it harder and harder for me to convince myself that i should do so.
i don't see it as this site vs dtv.............its more like thank god we have a alternate site as a backup.
the thing that bothers me more than anything else at dtv is how they discourage personal interactions. they provide nothing to give the members a sense of community.........thats a big no no.............you can't do that........it breeds contempt. it breeds fighting between members. there are people here that didn't get along or just didn't care for certain members privately........but when you get to know the person behind the comments it becomes easier to accept their input and because they have a sense of being part of the same machine they find they actually like one another.
i was involved in one of the biggest site wars to have ever rocked the internet that brought down a million member mega site.......i have no desire to be part of another............but i assure you this..........if they do get out of hand.........well lets not think like that right now.......dtv still has many great qualities so there is always hope.

Slith, my electricity went out last night right during the heat of it all at dtv, It was out in the whole neighborhood, pitch dark for three hours.......then at midnight......straight up it came back on......I logged in and then got blacked out once again..........I guess it wasn't meant for me to post.......
I hope you are feeling better about things now. We have all been there Slith......You know that......
Like I was told by folks here......don't go.......You are needed and wanted..........

Thanks guys. I let some personal issues get the best of me yesterday and needed to vent somewhere. This just happened to trigger it. My biggest problem out of all of this is it doesn't matter what the subject is, if it goes on for more than 2 or 3 pages it almost always turns into a bashing thread. I posted something in the related subject section on top of the thread, which was already a bashing thread and found something funny in it. No#1, it should have been deleted long before I commented #2 Why was it even in the related subject section #3 Why did they not send me a warning before locking it right away. #4 It really pissed me off having my freedom of speech taken away when there were and have been much worse threads on there.
