Yep he got me and a few on his site too. I still wouldn't put it past him. I know he charges his vendors for banners, or he use too.

Hey JR, posting on here about the other guy's forum that you have a disagreement with is pretty lame. I like them both. But if you want to continue to bring your personal grievance with the owner of the other forum I'll soon forget about yours. I don't know you or the other guy. So keep it internal or grow up. Or I just might pay the other guy $3 an hour. The other one seems to have more traffic.

The other one seems to have more traffic. I've nothing against SD.net, but your comment made me curious. I had gravitated to here because it seemed more active. But you think the other is more active. So I checked some stats. SD.net has close to 13,000 posts. Ride has just under 66,000 posts. Threads count--1547 vs 57++. Sorry, but I'm staying with the Ride as being more active. Again, nothing against SD.net, and if I could handle more than one forum, possibly two at a time then I would maybe hang there too. But I can't, and here is busier, and it just has always felt to me like the same as the old original SD. >'Kat  |

My only point is its very unbecoming of the owner of the forum to come on here and bash or dissuade people from using the other forum. As far as traffic... I hadn't checked stats. It only seems that as of late the 'other one' is more active. |

It only seems that as of late the 'other one' is more active. I guess with all that I've got going on I'm late to the party on answering this one. First of all I don't know where I bashed anyone, nor did I dissuade anyone from going there, I voiced a opinion on what the owner posted which ended up being a April's Fool and a good one at that. My opinion was based upon what the owner said and last time I checked I have a right to my opinion.
I said that IMO if he charged he would drive the nails in the forum's coffin and that opinion still holds.
You might need to start checking stats instead of making statements based upon no facts and since the "other one" was formed and this one later behind it we have more posts, threads and just lately hitting 2000 members speaks for itself and that is not based on what "seems to me" anything, but facts.
So when you're choosing such words as unbecoming you need to take a look at what was really said and get off that high horse. I can think of a lot of words that goes with your statement and unbecoming isn't one of them.

I didn't see anywhere in the post where JR bashed anyone. Also from my memory, he hasn't bashed SD.net before, but he has stated facts and a lot of us have done that at one time or another. I will say there is a lot of history concerning SD.net, most of which numerous long time forum users are not happy about, including ProBoards. The owner of SD.net has personally said things to and about me as well as others that were down right degrading and untrue. He has a history of banning people that do not agree with him or his point of view. This is evident by the participation numbers posted on his site. Once again facts.
Everyone is free to visit and participate in whatever forums they want to and have the right to voice their opinions. Last time I checked this is still a free society. I also give JR a lot of credit for what he has done to make this forum and others work and give a place for people to visit and find the information they need. He has even added a Friends button at the top of the page for more forums to find more information and create a sense of unity.

Personally I don't know where you get off on passing judgement on others for what they say in their opinions about anything and frankly could I care less what you have said about my statements on the "other guys", don't like what I have to say then don't bother to post or answer, at least here you have the right to voice your opinion no matter if it isn't appreciated, that's more than Jim and I have there because of being banned for expressing our opinions. Don't join the same crowd here. What you might do since you seem so excited about the "other guys" is mention to them that everyone has an opinion like people on the Ride do and see if they want to listen like we do here. Until then keep the statements of the "other guys" to yourself. They can come here and speak for themselves.
