Should I exit the board?

yamcha didn't leave this board because we aren't going very fast. He left because he had ZERO respect for the rules. Your post was moved as we have rules here and we aren't going to take a dump on other people's threads. Period. NOWHERE offers you the opportunity to come in and post whatever you like provided that you respect other members. If you want to talk about something, but need a new thread, start one and you can refer to the post of another thread if you have to. But don't take a dump here. I absolutely will not tolerate it.

What I will do, from this point forward is make sure that if someone comes here and makes a scene and then leaves that they never come back. I've busted my ass to get people here. Yamcha turned EVERY thread into his own conspiracy theories and / or racial views. Then another poster began using every forum for a book review - and he may not even have read the book! Are you going to read a book just because someone left a link here? Are you entertained by that?

If you were entertained by yamcha's posts, you would have replied to more of them. I can't clean up what they do and make the threads entertaining AND recruit people to post here. yamcha didn't have to post here every day AND break the rules in the process. Maybe, in retrospect, I shouldn't have invited anyone here until the bugs were worked out of this board and we had spent the money on advertising. We have someone who has committed to record some videos and get them up on youtube. He is recovering from surgery, so instead of him promising to be back on the job in days, I should have held fast to making him spend time in bed. Trying to get up and get around is pushing him further and further back.

I don't pass a hat and ask you for money; nobody is writing you and asking what part YOU did to get new posters here. People with skills (ALL of them BTW) are promising me that they will teach me how to do it (podcasts, videos, editing, etc.) Well let me tell you: I have to build the websites and pay for them (that's a monthly charge.) I have to recruit. I have to come up with content. We don't have any talking heads, so I have to come up with content for this board. IF the guy comes through with the video end, we have an advertising budget (out of my pocket at no cost to you.) All that money comes from somewhere. That's me working extra hours to make this happen. So, where do you think I'm getting all this time?

Right now, most of my time is being spent trying to reason with stupid people that do stupid things. I can't do all I've told you and clean up their messes. And, again, if you thought yamcha were all of that and a bag of chips, you would have commented on more of his posts. He had some good stuff, but NOBODY is going to look in a strategy thread only to find silly stuff that don't have squat to do with the topic. That's not entertaining; it's not educational; it does NOTHING to benefit the board. If you want to be a daily poster, you have to come up with topics. A man can't spend his life being a one trick pony. Well, if you're making an impassioned plea that, after a month, we only have 11 posters and threatening me is going to result in more posters, and if I don't get 'em, your gone is helpful, I may not be your man. If our views had been welcome anywhere you would have been there and never wasted time with this. Do what you like. I spend my days in battles with my own people over posting crap NOBODY finds entertaining because you can only talk about race and complain about problems so many times. Eventually, you have to graduate. I spend my days in ENDLESS texts back and forth with people that said they would help, but have more excuses than politicians have lies. Know this: If you bail, then I didn't need you as a friend. I'm spending a good 40 hours a week on top of my own life to promote this effort and the Charter. I'm putting my own money into this and never asking anyone for anything. I'm offended that people are offering to help me learn podcasting when I don't even have enough time to go and see family and friends, watch a movie, or maybe go shopping outside of the town I live in.

Think about how much time I've spent to make you, individually, aware that I'm catching heat all day - every day. Besides this, I've already sent / received 26 texts from ONE person alone TODAY and what time have I had to post real content, recruit, etc.? Seems to me you gave yamcha a couple of years to find an audience. Everybody here needs to pull their weight if they have an expectation of me. What did YOU do today? Maybe it's something else...

With all due respect, what do you really expect from me? All my work was destroyed on that other board. That means that research time and content that I already had to make these podcasts has to be redone. I'm doing 40 hours or more every week rebuilding that and your questioning my desire? BTW, the Announcement page was updated only two weeks ago at usresisters.com The man I have that volunteered just went through major surgery a couple of weeks ago. I can't push him any harder than I already have. I go to gun shows, trade shows, etc. and pass out business cards to generate interest in the website and I went on more than a hundred websites. We got tons of "likes," but no interest in building a site. Isn't that why you really keep thing discussion going?

Yamcha kept his site going for at least two years. You stayed with him, but you don't give me a month. What's cooking NSP? One guy gets two years and doesn't have enough sense to try different things. I noticed that successful boards stay on topic in most forums. Sure, they change course in general discussion, but for the most part they have enough sense to keep on point and discuss an issue without trying to go around the world. You seem to be defending yamcha with an ulterior motive. I don't like my commitment being questioned just because I don't do what others want to do. I went along with yamcha and did it his way. Now, I've EARNED the Right for any supporters to actually support what I'm doing and do it my way. And if that isn't meeting your expectation, you have but one question to answer: What did YOU do to make THIS board a success? To coin a phrase I heard recently: You didn't give me a Chinaman's chance. What's really cooking? Since YOU know so much about podcasts, why don't we record some episodes and you edit and get them up on the Internet? Then you can legitimately criticize me. Nobody asks you for money. Do you expect ME to research the material, record myself, edit the podcasts, post them on the Internet, do the recruiting, advertising, and updating of the website, moderate the board (when the guy supposedly helping are doing all they can to run people off), AND get all that done in less than 30 days? Could YOU do it? I'm thinking you want to make a big dramatic scene about walking out the door, but your criticisms don't hold water. I don't think you believe they do either.

Have downloaded an Android application [*within the last couple of hours] which has greatly improved this smartphones perspective of the forum and am currently catching up on threads i'd overlooked.

Just posting on a subject mentioned in your post and i haven't yet checked if there is an option on this version of the forum, apologies if this is an annoying question,...is there still a donate option?
[*FYI;- i wish to donate and don't expect you to actually match it.]

Woah!,...just noticed, apparently i can upload photos 'n' files now too,...🤗

Sweet.

Oh ok, that's all goods mate.

The two other forums i've been involved with [*nzissues.com & TFSF.com] both had a means to donate, which i have utilized.

TFSF.com has a standard donation option within the forum and the nzissues.com forum simply has the owners bank details listed so anyone can do a direct bank transfer.

Oddly enough the TFSF forum also had a tech guru of sorts originally.

Apparently at some point he & the owner eventually weren't seeing eye to eye so he ditched and i've been told he's since been actively posting elsewhere in an attempt to diminish TFSF.[*It's also a fledgling forum.]

But anyways, i'll definitely be keen to donate in support of this[*Resisters] forum as soon as it is possible.

In the meantime i will be proactively promoting this forum, though only to those whom i consider might potentially benefit from—and to this fine platform.

Also just wanted to point out[*in case it's not been brought to attention] that the standard version of this forum[*found by direct Google search] is significantly different on an Android Smartphone compared to the version on this 'Tapatalk' application i downloaded yesterday.

It's like a whole different forum by comparison.

The reason i mention this, is coz i think most internet traffic is by those using Smartphones and the standard Google format of the forum is not exactly Smartphone friendly and may cause people to dismiss the forum.

Please note that i am only meaning to contribute constructively by bringing that up, coz i reckon it might be a crucial aspect to help build up this fine forum.

Sorry for excessively explaining myself here, i'm still a bit wary of accidental miscommunication since my recent error on the Hershel Walker thread.

Thanks mate
