Has The Court Jester Been Executed?, Where's Maisky?

Just don't respond to the emails supposedly from them saying they had an internal server error & need your credit card number again.

really?

I guess I'm still somewhat of a newbie here - been here less than a year. But I'm not sure that I understand exactly what the older members are talking about. How is the site different now than it was in "the old days"? Sure some of the older faces are missing, and I assume that most of that was over the Peckery issue. But I'm not sure what you mean by comments like the above. Please understand that I am not trying to stir up trouble. I just feel like mushroom here... You say it is different... HOW is it different... please enlighten me...

I'd like to know how it is different too, so I am right with you Wizard!

Of course, you all didn't here of my plan to give everyone a smiley sticker that comes on to the site - - did you!!!!




time for a cold one everyone - rounds on me!

Macfive: WizardofOwls: We've got a different set of faces. Doesn't seem like we have as many musicians posting anymore like there used to be That's some of what I see as different


Mac's buying the booze? Set me up with a white russian and a couple rattlesnakes!

Burn any Mr. Smiley who worked for Wal-Mart though. If they didn't work for Wally world, he can stay the ones working for Wal Mart are infested with Evil. This comming from a state with a "Death to Smiley" campeign. Yes, a lot of us hate the current design of the Kentucky license plate. Looks like Wal-Mart funded it. I spent a little extra to make sure I didn't have it on the back of my Corolla. Got a horse instead

You know, I really love this place. It's the only real forum I've ever been involved with. The chat room here is still the only chat room I've ever been in. When I get on the internet, CR is the last place I visit - and that is a GOOD thing! I check my e-mail first, then I try to get through all of the other sites I check in on (maybe 2 or 3 at most) so that I can get all of that other junk out of the way. Then I can settle in on CR for the rest of the evening and chat with with all of you, my friends. I can share my friends' lives here... I laugh with you, I cry with you, I get angry with you, and I hope and dream for you. I really do love this place, and not for the music. You know before I got my new computer, I couldn't even listen to the music! My computer was so old, it couldn't support the music. I would lose my internet connection jsut about everytime I tried. so pretty much the ONLY reason that I came here was for the people. YOU guys. You make CR for me. Without you it'd be no better than any other site.

So when I read about all of the dissention and unrest here, it really disturbs me. It makes me wonder what I've missed. What has happened that so many of you feel differently about the place? Each and every time someone makes the decision not to come back, I feel like I've lost a friend. I know that's kinda simple and perhpas a little naive of me, but its the truth. Can't we just get along and lay all of the sore feelings to rest once and for all?

Kentucky put smilies on their lisence plates? How tacky is that?

Wiz: sometimes it is a good friend who leaves. I know I'm bad for not keeping in touch too. But more often than not, people leave on good terms. Whatever happens, life goes on Hope the best, remember, and if you can, keep in touch.

IS: I agree. The overall color scheme is nice, but smiley needs to go. If I recall correctly, between 8 vehicles owned by my parents, myself, my sister and her husband, and a couple of my friends, only 2 of them have the stock plate. Every one of the others has a different plate on it. No two the same.

PEACE FOR EVERYONE AT CR!

I just want us all to move on...This is a great site!!!

Oh my!

Not to offend anyone from Kentucky but is that ever tacky. Kindergartner stuff..?

There is no dissention and there is no unrest. I really feel like a handful of people are spreading this around and it simply is not true.

We have so many wonderful people here on the forum that sometimes an outspoken voice or two will overshadow all of the good. So sit back and enjoy the site. Members come and members - it really is a natural flow of people and it resembles real life....do we all go to the same exact store every weekend or see the same movie?

And as far as musicians coming on to the site, we have occasional musicians that pass by, but remember, musicians are very busy people. Heck, it sometimes takes me 3 months to get an email reply. We have had offers for musicians to engage in chat and such; but I just do not feel ready for that yet.

We also have not even started to promote this site. Up until now CelticRadio.net is pretty much word of mouth and search engine driven. Once I get some PR materials together on CR and the "STORY" of CR I am certain that I can get in some local newspapers like the Boston Globe or the Herald and thats just the start......but not yet, I am still developing the site!

I can't speak for BluegrassLady or Haldur, but you're not going to offend me with it unless you start thinking I designed it personally. I want to repeat myself in saying "Death to Smiley". But I think a large portion of this state would agree with you rather than be offended.

It's bad isn't it Whatever those folks in Frankfort were smoking a couple years ago, I don't wanna know. Just hope they can redeem themselves of this atrocity next time they change the plate.

I think I've said my peace and should duct tape my mouth shut to just reading this thread for a while, and stop posting in it long enough for Haldur and BluegrassLady to get a word in edgewise

Should I attempt to contact the Lexington paper? What with St. Patty's day right on us and all... They might like telling people about a Celtic Internet radio station. Who knows.

We may not see things eye to eye on certain issues, I do think we can agree that the music is great.

...and then there is the MODERATORS!!!!
this is a funplace for me, if I want stress I can watch the news, ...I refuse to get stressed here, it's not worth the energy.

Everybody belly up to the bar at The Pub, crack a few jokes, flirt a little, have fun...
