pringles 0 #27 July 27, 2004 I just checked my link and your right. It doesn't work right. I copied and pasted it from post 22 from this thread. Oh well, I will just have to try a couple more times and then pick a new screen name. Matt Davies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sangiro 24 #29 July 27, 2004 QuoteAnother thread speaks of standing behind your mates. Well, I for one appreciate Micks persistence and therefore, Im signing off of DZ.com and the BASE Zone permanentlyIt's obvious from his hard work that he cares about giving us a home of our own. Thanks to the DZ.com staff for an awesome site but I'm outa here. I'm not boycotting dz.com, or encouraging others to, I'm just making a personal decision. Hey, Good for you. I can appreciate a man who makes a decision and stands by it. Not taking this personally at all. I would not think twice about recommending Blinc it to BASE jumpers first. I thought I would point out however that after this post you logged in on the 15th, 19, 20, 23 and as recently as yesterday on the 26th...

As said before tech stuff belongs at Blinc and us newbies whith Q´s bélongs here(well the Q´s at least). Boths places are great in their own way,if you really want to learn you should read from both places(plus all other places aswell).dont tie you self up.And using all boards wont hurt one board.. I like the new look at Blinc Stay safe Stefan Faber Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although BLiNC is better suited to BASE discussion than DZ - (just look at the replies to threads - alot are from skydivers who dont even BASE), there is still posts from people respected in BASE here so its still worth logging on to read them............ I get your point he may have been a little unsure of his true intentions at the time of posting, but I have to admit his point makes sense............... why discuss things here that dont suit the forum focus (skydivers wanting to BASE) when there is a prime suited forum else where to do so? - do you want a bigger crowd to read what your saying?? (not you sangrio) - or do you want the relevant crowd to read what your saying? again, too much time on my hands!! Dont take BASE to the skydivers, let the skydivers come to BASE...................

mickknutson 0 #34 July 28, 2004 QuoteAs said before tech stuff belongs at Blinc and us newbies whith Q´s bélongs here(well the Q´s at least). I just really disagree. I create a newbie forum over a year ago just to create a seperate area where new jumpers could ask questions from a les harsh crowd. I have made special effort to HEAVILY moderate that forum for just that reason: http://www.blincmagazine.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=58Mick Knutson * BLiNC Magazine "Everything you ever wanted to know about Parachuting, but didn't know whom to ask."

base428 1 #35 July 29, 2004 Personally, I find it easier to post over here at dropzone.com and I don't even go over to Blinc anymore. Blinc is unstable with many browsers, it changes too often, and the layout is inferior. I also think it's a bit tacky to see advertisements for Blinc over here. Things change I guess.(c)2010 Vertical Visions. No unauthorized duplication permitted. <==For the media only Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

obi 0 #37 July 29, 2004 Hey Mick, I have used Blinc for years and so I immediately went over to try it after your post. I asked for a new password and got the screen saying it was send to me. Nothing came. I did it a couple times more, nothing happened. I tried different mail-adresses but they weren't recognized. I then tried your contact-form on Blinc to ask for help but never got an answer. I then emailed you directly using all your mail-adresses I could find (quite a few) and again never got an answer. Honestly, I really don't like it when I get zero reaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
