Never been booted off a forum until now

**TERBObob** · 06-08-2008, 10:03 AM

When I posted over there on PLANET CHRISTMAS , about how identical the "maestro" is , to VIXEN , and then Brian posted , then myself again ... seems Chuckie boy did not like what I said , so .... in turn , he booted me . Can't log in and can't register .

Here is what comes up and am WAITING for approval ? LOL ... ( even though I was already registered last year . )

"Thank you for registering, TERBObob. Your account has been submitted for moderation by an administrator and will be activated shortly. You will be notified by email when this happens. To return to the forums, click here"

( I went there to post WHY my threads "disappeared" about the "maestro")

Not only gave you the boot, but did a search on Maestro, No sign of any posts from you at all. Interesting little kingdom Chuck has going there. I'm not sure I understand why he has to run such a controlled environment unless he really has something to hide. :confused:

You know, there is nothing new about what has happened to you. This same behavior has been going on over at PC for as long as I have been into computer controlled lights. This is the reason it has been over a year since I visited that site. Remember last year when Chuck had a hissy fit and shut down the site because too many people were questioning him and his ways. I can see banning someone for being a trouble maker, and being rude to people. But I do not agree with someone being banned for their opinion. Face it, some people can not handle the truth, what ever it may be. And even worse, there are those who can not handle people disagreeing with them.

That forum is useless. I don't doubt there is usefull information on that site, but anything usefull on that site is completly cancled out by the all around bad attitude and Nazi rule set put in place. Thank you so much Brian for a peacefull, informative and very powerfull forum.

Hey maybe we should start up a sub forum for commercial grade equipment, and then all of the good people would bail out on PC and come here.............................NAHHHHHHH, we don't want that kind of rif raf around here.

I went there to check out the posts and it is amazing how fast Chuck back pedaled with Brian's comment. It was almost comical in a certain aspect.

When I started this hobbie I used to hang out at both sites, but I honestly have to say that DIYC is much better and I don't get negativity like I have gotten over at PC. So now I spend 99% of my time here :-)

What i don't get is that from the short video they have posted on the Maestro site, the software looks exactly the same as vixen. The people over at Planet Christmas are having to pay for software that we are able to get for free.

Do we know if there is anything extra in Maestro that we don't get in Vixen, apart from the added cost?
