Personally, I would like to see the bickering among PC and other local sites stop, and each site be free to do what they do best without interference, and even with encouragement, from the others.
However, I have wanted to see that since 2002, so I don't have a lot of hope for it.
But, I am a firm believer in the value of communications, and I think that the open communications opportunity provided here on 285bound, if utilized, is the best chance of accomplishing this that I have seen, and I applaud the attempt.
I would like to see this thread expanded into an explanation of each site, so that users would have a better idea of why each exists and what it offers.
IMO, there is a need for each of the several sites here, and no reason to disparage any of them. If they aren't your 'cup of tea', leave them alone and move on.
I agree, but how do let things pass that are just false, we were dragged in and then expected to let let things go. At least there can be a dialogue here, anyone that wants to know about this site can ask and receive an honest straight forward answer.
Damned if we do and damned if we don't.
Board wars are laughably stupid. PC filles one niche 285Bound another. Post where you want- at one or both and feel lucky that you have a community board. They're not common.
JMC- put the facts out there. People that truly care enough to be informed will find them. A quality product that fills a consumers need will succeed.

Understand, DSV had the same problem years ago, and found that just letting it go did not work. We did not find a good solution, as discussing it on our site did not work either (our audience was too limited). I hope that with the much greater audience 285bound has, many more will have access to the facts, and be able to make informed decisions.
Damned if we do and damned if we don't.
Very true, unfortunately.
IMO, all you can do is keep trying (and I don't think anyone will deny that I am very trying! )
Hang in there, 285bound is the best thing that has happened in the 285 corridor for many years!

Ditto on that. Hang in there JMC, you did nothing wrong but clear up the BS. Don't let it get you down, its a good site developing here. Stay positive.
If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2
Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

We will continue to be an open book here.
Thanks all.
Amazing.... I guess maybe not so amazing just business as usual :bash :bash
