CB Radio Club

CopperElectronics has an ok forum. But I've heard that they will kick you off if you critique them or their service poorly.

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.
 
Ok, so I'm new to this site but not to radio. I went to the CBRT site and it's a joke! I have registered three times and I get the welcome message, get to post to the new member group, then it kicks me out and the Mods/admins/hicks never respond to their emails or phone calls. Worldwidedx is much better.
 
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.

They've had issues in the past with hackers. So once you get ten post in to show you're a real person you're good to go... They do moderate the first few post before they show it in the topic list to be on the safe side. once you get over that hump I think you'll like the site. Just my opinion.
 
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.
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.
