Clifford, I'm banned for life from the site so I wouldn't know if it's working or not but I do understand freds thoughts on the economy being tanked and I'm glad bob's surgury went well, but hey, what do I know, I'm banned lol. I also feel that that camper on the truck is over priced at 165K but like I said, I'm banned for life so I really don't know lol.  I prefer Danica in the Go Daddy ad's over mikie.

I'm not entirely sure why it happened, I'm not sure if it was because when mike S sent me a rule packet and demanded I sign each page and return them to him, maybe it was the timing cause I was low on toilet paper at the time but I did return the pages for the most part. Or it might have been because of some information in regards to money that I found out, I'm sure it was something other than my sweet, shy and innocent disposition lol.  I felt horrible and am permanently damaged and destroyed emotionally over the whole incident, luckily I have a good grasp of DOS, I guess I may be the only one ever required to sign a rule packet, but anyway it's amazing what a person can do with dos lol. Even Mike K couldn't override MIke S's verdict, oh wait a minute Mike S was removed at that time, secretly, I think it was an attempt to sabatoge my bid for sainthood.

This a direct quote from the BCM rules, it was ruled contradictory to copywrite law, it even contradicts itself, the first paragraph states the author owns any copywrite material, the second paragraph says BCM own it if BCM owns any material published then it also owns any ad's submitted for advertising purposes also,, do you really think Ford would allow BCM to steal their work? I didn't.

With all the boards available, one less doesn't affect me greatly, I really have no bad feelings against Mike S, however, I do feel badly for all the members that lost money, money just doesn't go poof, it goes into somebodies pocket, I would think the bigger question would be what happened to the money not what happened to me.

I'm just glad I never actually signed up for the mag.. Bought a few issues here and there. Seems a lot of people have paid and they aren't producing .


Have fun !

I have my doubts anyone at BCM is sitting on a pile of subscription money.  A typical magazine gets less than half their revenue from subscribers.  The rest comes from advertisers who only pay when their ad actually runs.  BCM is/was probably like a lot of small hobby magazines and was probably losing money on every issue.

If anyone believes Mike K. he has claimed the magazine was losing money since well before the economy started to tank.
