    I'm still around, but have seen less and less interest in the community as Chris points out. The escort and bel forums are no better.

    After SS passed that's when I saw change. I don't think it was just coincidentally when this site took an "instant on hit"

    News to me about Roy, good for him from one cop to another It also explains a lot of why this site is where it is. With that said, my loyalty to this site now has changed. This site back in the day was about more then just information, hell for me sometimes it was therapy.
    .
    With the new innovations in electronics as they call it over the last couple of years.... Seems like all the new stuff now is nothing short of gimmicky. All this crap that hooks up to your phone...wtf seriously?

    As far as others controlling this site....totally agree....Just like and escort that's job is collect money for a sexual act....Anyone getting my point???

    Nothing better then a good radar unit set of jammers and a group getting together for testing. Now I don't get why people spend money for the crap that they make now.

    I think of Stealth Stalker and his family often. I lost my partner to the same awful disease.
    May God bless him and his family.

    Wow! Life!!!

    Mass bannings, very restrictive rules, no leadership/mods present and a HUGE hole in security took its toll here. Some products out there you could not talk about without your post being edited to say what you weren't saying . The forum was left to die. Even Stealth Stalker is still a mod as there is no active admin left to breath life back into things. So much has changed. So many new guns and a new jammer on the block that I dare not mention.

    CLICK "RATE THIS THREAD" AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE, it deserves an EXCELLENT 5-STAR rating.

    Hopefully the current "big shots" running the show will pay some attention to the unbiased "critique" expressed in this thread.

    Obviously would be nice one/some of them to post a response asking us what we would like to see NEW/CHANGED in the forum.

    Let's see how (and when) they will finally address our humble concerns.

    Not sure who is running it anymore. I mainly just read now days. My setup is complete for now. But check most post, 200 lookers and no replies. Hell no one even says hello to the new guys.

    Wow! So depressing to hear what the forums were like before I joined.

    Perhaps a little humor is in order? If so, my guess is instead of all that global warming crap, we are in the start of a mini ice age like some "experts" say and perhaps this chilling effect has effected the forums? Hummm...time for a hot cup of something

    I rarely post anymore, mostly read. But even that has been reduce. The guys with the deep technical understanding are not posting anymore, so the information flow is not what it use to be. Also, I've noticed a lot of hateful, disrespectful behavior towards newbies. This site was never like that back in the day. It was all about getting together sharing, testing, and collaborating with true subject matter experts. Or trying to learn and becoming more of an expert. It's lost that and has a much more "corporate" feel. Sorry just being honest!

    Pretty good times before Roy sold the website, new owners have imposed a zero-tolerance on everything that would offend pretty much everybody, penguins included

    You missed our own funny guys, SmartAssSaabr and JDS and many others.

    We've learned a lot from the pros of GOL, they were the best in RD business.

    Also we didn't have any YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, Twitter, other narcissistic social media hysteria, this forum was like a 2nd job for lots of us. But also lots of political fights especially before and after the 2008 Election.

    Let's try to revive this forum, nothing it's impossible, ObamaCare excluded...

    x2

    Absolutely their were some funny people on this site.

    I miss the little spats that would erupt.

    Not sure how or if this new "owner" can fix this broke a$$ site.

    First like anything they need to admit they have a problem. When someone new registers and 100 people view and no one post's that's a big Efing hint.

    In the event you are reading this.... Sucks to Suck this bad!
