I wish I had a bit more time and resources to work on it, maybe in the next few weeks it'll look a lot nicer with some nifty graphics and stuff.
Been working for a while now...
No matter...looks damn good. Will look it over some more.
It's not sending me the activation link[:(!] hope I didn't mistype my email.[B)]
I'm in.
I'm not.
No activation email.
Oddly enough, the website might be a bit late. There appears to be a marked loss of interest in the C.A.s. There doesn't seem to be enough of them interested enough to even vote on a new member...or discuss changes in procedures that might be needed.
It may well have run its' course here. Was never intended as anything except a joke, at the beginning...and the joke might be getting old, in some members minds.
There are several reasons that spring to mind over the lack of interest...but there is no feedback to ascertain those reasons, so speculation is pointless, I guess.
I never got the e-mail, either...he entered me somehow, also. Seems my e-mail lags quite a bit, sometimes. Gives somebody time to read 'em over, I guess.

I hope it hasn't "run its course" as an educational tool and site. You have a great opportunity to educate and attract like minded individuals. My only suggestion is, while never compromising your beliefs, engage in discussion with the uninformed and convince with your logic and evidence. I know that there are those who truly can be brought around and those who are arguing for the sake of the fight. Discern, teach, but don't cast your pearls before swine.
Here's hoping you have success.
Max,.......I added rtkba to the meta search string.
Hope that was ok![;)]
I signed up, but 2 hours later no confirmation e-mail or anything.....
Scott,.......sign in now.
I registered you.
Don #3 should be enabled now also.
Whether the Canary * joke has ran it's course, and remains or not, I don't think it will change the beliefs of the members. Once the eyes have been opened, shutting them again, is out of the question. (the blue pill, or the red pill) You can't go back.
One thing is has done, which will not change, is show that there are others who believe in that which this country was founded on. Those that are not afraid to stand up to the criticism of the sheeple. It is heartening to know, either as a group, or individually, you are not alone.
Disbanded or not, the job remains. We are teachers, we will continue to try to educate. Sometimes our words fall on deaf ears, sometimes they do not. Even if only a small percentage open their minds to the possibility of a different reality, it makes it all worthwhile.

Awesome, I am in!
I do have a bit of experience with the YAF (Yet Another Forum) software. It should not be too hard to spruce the appearance up. I am looking forward to this.
Let freedom ring!![8D]
And let me not forget to add a BIG thanks to Max for getting this together, I know I would never be able to do something like this. I am such the technical bozo (how was it that Jeff put it? a technical moron or something like that?). very cool imho.........
Never got the email, but I can log in now. Hmmmmm.......

We need to stop the negativity IMHO,.......give it some more time.
Some are simply busy trying to maintain their livelihood, and others are worried about it.
If I am wrong, I do believe what Pick said to be the truth, and good was done.
ok....where's "admin"?
You have mail.
I cant wait to see it take shape. T/Y Max
FAQ is a bit confusing, I agree, but, feel free to make it less so [:D]
Forum is functional over there, but it's not finished yet, I am still working on properly displaying it.
In short, if you have a new idea, offer it in the marketplace of ideas and see if you have any buyers.
Now maybe the trash can be taken out to the curb where it belongs.
Good tr maybe you can pick up a john or two while you're out there ![:0][:D]
Yeah. Maybe. But doubtful as I try my best to avoid dealing with trash.
Except the NRA...huh?[:0][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D][:D]
So you can't get there from the home page? How did you find it?
Jeff,.....I just came back from a 50 mile round trip.
I found the info in the Joomla documents that I have been reading a bit of.
Did I hear a cricket chirping a post or so above?[:0]
Thank God for your new website. Now maybe the trash can be taken out to the curb where it belongs. I predict you ignorant * will be overwhelm with the lack of response you will receive. This is how putting your crazy ideas and offering it in the community of citizens will give you a true opinion of how much ( or how little) your ideas are worth.
In short, if you have a new idea, offer it in the marketplace of ideas and see if you have any buyers.
See, tr, that's just it; the ideas we have are nothing new. We can trace their origins back a little over two centuries.

Just a cockroach scurrying away from the light ![:D]

You don't know the difference between a cricket and a sheep?
Baaaaaaaaaaaaa baaaaaaaaaaaaaa baaaaaaaaa
Don't turn your back on her. She's a classic example of turncoat, and will be the first to turn folks in for a pat on the head.
She will point every single one of us out, first chance she gets.
