What would be the point? The people who have wrecked this newsgroup,
would soon overrun any new one.

not true dave. there was a yahoo group dedicated to cb but it went to sleep
i guess due to lack of posters.


Ah, but that is another problem. Activity on any particular group is
directly proportional to how well know it is and how easy it is to
access. The Yahoo group's lack of activity may simply be due to a lack
of visibility.

Of course, the downside to popularity is that it attracts the "seedy"
element as well as the good people. You have to draw the line. Do you
want a semi-private group, who's existand reaches only a small grup of
people, and where it is easier to regulate content? Or do you want an
open door public forum, which has no problem with the quantity of
participants, but you have to take the good along with the bad?

it didn't put up with the nonsense here.
this board lives on mostly to the tune of homosexual themes and rebutal.


It has degenerated into the lowest common denominator. Not too much
different from what can be heard over the CB channels in any given Metro
area.

you are part of it with the twisty posts and responses.


I have decided to limit my posts to subjects which deal with CB radio.
Equipment, trivia, nostaligia etc. When someone makes an erroneous
statement, I will set them straight. Twisty is an attention seeking
sociopath. It is pointless to engage him any further, and I will do so
no longer than to correct factual inaccuracies.
