Hi CAMers,

This is Rod, aka dcducati. I decided to get a little more witty with my screen name. Am I going to have to monitor two boards now, or is the idea to get everyone to switch over to here? Statler, is there any risk that the new owners of the DML will try to shut this down?

Maybe I'll try to get DUCNCVR as my vanity plate. Do we get 7 characters in MD?

for a short period...you may want to monitor 2 different boards...

the hopefully general idea is to get everyone we choose to engage in and around CAM things and Monsters or other Ducati things over from the DML to here because this is a board run "by enthusiasts for enthusiasts" as apposed to the DML which is now owned by and run by a Canadien advertising space selling company for profit through click counter methods...

the risk isn't that they'de try and shut it down...the risk is that they'll see the board grow and potentially try and aquire this forum as well to ad to their portfolio of boards they own for selling ad space....

I'm not trying to 'steal' members, so we don't mind how many places people surf on the net.   VS may care that the core of what made the DML cool on the big boards has left.   There may not be a big difference in CAM except for layout and ads.   I'll be here and not there, but I'm not exactly tech savy so my contributions won't make much difference.

They have no recourse in terms of shutting this down.  Their unpaid moderators have moved to a different unpaid moderator gig.  The people with the technical and riding knowledge are free to post wherever they want.

Basically, make the beast with two backs VS.  If the DML had been bought by someone who actually rides a motorcycle things would be different.

OK...I'm rambling.   Click the 'why we're here' button in red at the top and read through the mission statement.   It sums it up nicely.  On the local level, we just wanted people who don't like the VS ownership a place to organize if they choose to.

Sounds like there was some behind the scenes drama going on. How exciting! Maybe we could make some shitty mini-series on Lifetime about it?

So only 6 characters...maybe just DUCCVR? or CVDUCR; becasue the "DUC" is inside the "CVR" so it's like "Duc in Cover", which sounds like "Duc 'n Cover"? Or does that make it too obvious that I am a cryptic crossword dork?
