Unfortunately this board is kinda an afterthought in the pdf hobby so the quality info that you offer is missed by the masses.


Their is no quality of anything on thier any more..alls people do now is bitch and fight with each other and the good post get buried.. You cant help any one over thier any more without some one being offended.. They don't want to take advise they want you to tell them what they want to here...I don't feel this is the mods fault thier just to much BS going around to control...

It's the policy choices actually. You hit the nail on the head when you said they want to hear what they want to hear. The problem is that certain people in charge over there do not see it as a decent number of experienced froggers being very disgruntled , they see it as lots of people loving the status quo. I can't believe the number of times I have read that " other popular forums run such and such this way and the forum is really popular and does well". I read that as "we need tons of people, not necessarily quality people just tons of people" . I defy anybody to name ten very experienced, very successful froggers who post with any regularity on Dendro. Ten out of over 5000 members. The new comers are coddled to the point where if you suggest a "search" you will undoubtedly be spattered with the dreaded red "no-nos" faster than a newbie can type "can I mix?"
The simple bottom line is you will continue to see more and more advertisements that have absolutely nothing to do with darts ( Ebay, dating services , backne relief products, drug rehab, ect. ect.) which I , and most should, consider spam. Pure spam. But to one person is income. You will continue to see the topics "dumbed down". And you will continue to see what is considered (by at least one person over there) to be the flashiest, newest , latest greatest , gimmicks, when what we all should be looking for and digesting is real , pertinent , scientific topics where the extremely experienced "pros" can actually say "well, that's not correct, or true" without the fear of having an "infraction" or a raging case of the red no-nos. Substance , not junk food. The epitome of the couch potato. Fat , lazy, uneducated and not willing to change for the better.

So, I'm perusing "Another Forum" , when I notice that the owner decided to leave all my posts, but remove my signature !

He wants to use my posts, but does not want to advertise my website. And has something against my parasite/mixed viv stance! WTF!?!

Once again you hit the nail squarely on the head! Income is the sole force behind Dendro and many of it's misguided members. God forbid you try to bring responsibility and sound advice to that bunch of idiots.

I'm by no means calling anybody an idiot or purely in it for the money. I think it is simple to grasp what I am saying. It would seem that many feel the same way. Frustrated, rightly so.

"Idiot" may be a little too strong of a word, frustrated with the bickering and lack of good advice is probably a better way to say it. Either way, not worth trying to help anyone, good advice just gets diluted in the bullshit anyway.
