I did witness a poor guy ask a question on the ham side of this forum and it was like the wolves chewed him apart. Left sorry for the guy.
op:
Been there done that and moved on to the next topic!

CopperElectronics has an ok forum. But I've heard that they will kick you off if you critique them or their service poorly.
Yep, it's still there. You may want to try: http://www.eHam.net Their forums are excellent, although it's a Ham radio website.Is that forum still active? I mean do people actually still post there?
I never critiqued their company and I was still kicked off their forum without even an explanation as to why.

So I have to backtrack a little. The webmaster actually called me (I missed it, beer break) and then emailed me. May be a site issue, webmaster will run it down and let me know.
So they do respond. Good for them.
Yep, give mauldroppers a try if you get your feelings hurt by moderators fairly easy. No moderators over there.
Very good description of cbradiotalk.com. the censorship there is waaaay out if control. My posts and others were always deleted because the moderator did not agree with what was said. You can only talk about their "sponsored" advertisers and products or post deleted. No posting links permitted , no reviews permitted if its not a "sponsored" company product etc. Its totally lame. Some people like it, i thought it was a joke. Anyway needless to say i got banned hahaha because i called them out on it. Thats why this forum is where i reside.I don't want to defame any site. But the circus you speak of is quite stuffy. Very ridged, mod trigger finger happy, and not for any malicious violations really. Just, it's kind of like being in a library where the librarian takes his or her job quite serious. Half of the posts in this topic would have been deleted already and or the topic closed, for not pertaing to the subject matter of the topic title. That kinna stuff. The information there is vast, and the people willing. But it can be a very unfriendly territory at times. Which is why I have sought out another forum, and found myself here.
And the original poster hasnt logged in since 2018...You 2 do realize this post is 6 yes 6 years old?
Meh, sites go down often. Mauldroppers was down for a week or two last month but its back.
