RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

RCU is run by tower hobbies i believe

Well at least I went out with a bang maybe more effective at getting guys to think about this site how good it is and no one deletes your post. Spent ages looking for one of mine then realised it had been deleted for puting a link to panzerketten where I got the idea,just wanted the guys at panzerketten to know I wasnt stealing there work,but just modifing it slightly .The way RCU handled it was stuff it nobody will find out how to do it, how does this help the guys on the forum. If a guy had started doing the mod and it was deleted before he was halfway though how is he going to find the info to finish it.The only way to have that happen here is a server crash but the write up would be returned and then the guy could ask for the photos .Hope you guys understand my point of view now I put posts on to help others if I find out something I think you guys will want to see I will put links in so you can look for yourself and if I modifie something I will tell you the original place I got the idea .This should not lead to the post being deleted its credit where credit is due.

HOW ELSE IS THE HOBBY GOING TO MAKE PROGRESS  

I don't think Tower has anything to do with RCU other than being one of the main sponsers for the forum(just a guess).I'm sure RCU has major concerns on the opinion on things when it comes to tower hobby.I got to say I left RCU being very bitter about what was allowed to continue on there with personel bashing of some of the members,and a lot of that blame I also put on the members them selves for allowing it to continue and not condem those actions.I seemed to be a favorite pissing post for a few guys on there and yet was suppose to look the other way when this took place.Well if you start doing that everyone thinks they can do the same and get away with it.This is not good for a forum,and what is even worse is what does the new guy who wonders in just looking to have fun and do their own thing with others in the same part of the hobby and tastes.If I could I would delete every post that I have ever posted on that forum.I did look up RCU to find out where the site was located and how to contact them.(biggest supprise ever the domain and registrar
is in Vancouver Washington-----20 miles from my house).It says they will only accept registered mail and will remove your name off RCU if you send them a registered letter requesting the removel,and I will be doing that.I hope to get them to totally remove my user name BIGMIG also.Enough said I came here to have some fun,-------------                       BIGMIG 

so are we all still friends.

boys can i just say welcome back from Fleshy,and now that we are back can we
just get on where we left off.

I don't believe what I'm looking at!!!!!
I honestly believed that this forum was history.
I can only apologise for being so pessimistic.
Also, what the hell is going on over at RCU?
Don't they realise how much UK tankers contribute to their forum?
Anyway, we are back, so lets get some builds, mods, upgrades posted and show them how it's done.

Cheers
John
