Jim and Marc,
Speaking as a new boater, I've found both sites to be the best sources for info. If it was not for your sites, I wouldn't have entered the sport. There is nothing that can't be researched and found between the two sites. The posts, at least most, are very helpful and informative. The reviews, pictures, and "How To" sections are great. The build and for sale forums are outstanding since I use these to get very good pictures for my projects and even some great deals. Yes, a lot of info can be furnished by your local club and friends, but these sites are GREAT!!! Jim, please reconsider reopening the site for the mass major of boaters that use the site daily for positive purposes. Being 63 years old, I've learned over the years to just ignore the negative and there will always be a small percentage of negativity, and focus on the positive of which is normally about 99% of the info is a plus. If you decide not to reopen, I would still like to thank you for the dock, it has been a big part of my boating life.

Can anyone answer as to why like many other people above me have said,
they dont just ban or suspend these peoples accounts?
Why does the thousands or Majority have to suffer?

Could have been handled a little better imo.

Happy boating :dance2:

WOOOO HOOOOO first post at MGB :beach:

Give Jim a break guys...he has other things to do than to have to police what goes on on there all the time.

good post marc:)

Once again, thanks to Jim for having his site. It was nice to be able to exchange ideas and thoughts with fellow boaters. But it seems that all of a sudden alot of the comments got more personal and rude. After all these are just toy boats!!! Thank you, HMH

After being out of model boats for over ten years and starting to get back into it this fall I found Modelgasgasboats.com and JRCBD online. Our level of access to information has never been greater.I registered for both and was impressed by the help of others when I had questions.I hope JRCBD comes back. These sites are so much better than getting a magazine once a month with limited space and no ability to get real time information from the people who make and use there products. We should respect these sites and boot those who don't.

WHAT HAPPENED TO SHUT IT DOWN?

Marc I appreciate you keeping the politics out of your site.

Jim's will hopefully come back up after things have cooled down.

Both sites are very insiteful and helpful to the hobby. I am in hopes that Jim's does come back. It is a good site and not one to be taken advantage of.

Marc is right ... grown up men fighting over nothing ... at Christmas yet.

As usual thanks Marc for the site ... maybe others we see how great this site and Jim's are ... and appreciate the work that you guys put into this sites

Maybe we should have a apology thread dirested to Jim started


Randy ...

.. Smile it's Christmas

I loved that site and thought Jim did a great job but after eeing the agressive personal attacks and truly bad nature of many on it, I could not continue to be a part of that community. I wish that site could be purged of the guilty individuals. The sad part is that most of the repeat offenders don't realize that they are ruining it for good people. I came on the site a couple years back but because of the discussions in the forums, I changed my mind and now have no intentions on competing as a racer at any level. I just never wanted to run across the miserable people on that site at a meet.
