Was thinking the same thing… Would gladly donate to make this site great!

Making this site great:
- Lure everybody from Jasons’ playground/sandbox
- Open a patreon
- Hope we don’t get DDoS by Jason personally
- Live and prosper until the flaccid penis gets erect(great power=viagra) @Brenternet

I’m changing my father’s gravestone to read exactly this.

Also when I read your raptor situation. They offered to change my unity by “warranty”. It didn’t happen. Pretty much a literal GTFO(regarding how EU warranties work and their literal inability to read how they work) took place and I didn’t dare to reply further to avoid a 1000 year ban. 
I bet all warranties go like that.
Very correct! There’s no such thing as “partially retarded”, but if there were, Jason would fall into in to that class.

Three people already.
We call him “Traction Control Carl”.

Maybe you can give Jason some advice on how to actually run a business? You seem to know how to treat customers well.
P.S.- This is a joke. Jason will never take good advice.

If there’s evidence that the forum admins have been reading private conversations at electric-skateboard.builders, that alone is a strong enough reason for me to move over. That’s just completely unacceptable. I suppose many will feel the same. How about the following:
-
Make a “why I’m moving over” thread here where the people affected by the privacy violation and censorship give a brief description of what happened. Keep the posts informative and the thread uncluttered (move discussions elsewhere) so that it’s easy to read through for anyone.
-
Give Jason an opportunity to explain himself and/or provide his version of the story. I think that’s fair. I’m happy to talk to him if nobody else wants to.
-
Once the thread has enough info (including Jason’s version if he doesn’t refuse to provide it), advertise the thread at the other forum. Maybe make “I’m leaving” avatar that people can use. IMO it will go viral quickly if there’s enough evidence that bad things happen at esk8-builders.

Trust me my friend, the evidence is 100% utterly clear. There’s zero room for interpretation.
He read our private chat, he entered it and threatened us, before anyone had done anything even remotely like “retaliation” or any silly crap like that. His forced entry to people’s private chat is what started the drama.

Before we move to this forum. We should populate this thread with the most important threads from builder forum.
Also this has to show up higher on Google when people search for “how to build an electric skateboard”. Without that this forum will never take off.

I have no reason not to trust you or Sean. You don’t need to convince me. However, if we want others to move over, having people’s experience written down at one place would definitely help.
Makes sense. Or we could just produce solid content here, not force the issue and let people decide.
I can tell you the core of the busy builders are here already, they just need an excuse to get active. This seems like a pretty solid motivator.

But that means we need to get them banned from the first forum or we get a 70/30% split of content share, etc.
Send a bag of dicks to enertion personal messages or something.
Electeic skateboarding has come a long way from when that fourm started. We just need a handfull of threads on how to set up bms, wiring etc. Rest will take care of itself as people naturally populate this fourm. A lot of the early threads on that forum are redundant imo.
