Can't handle the heat, get out of the kitchen.
 
Been talking to Bog about it, we're thinking of starting up a new board within a day or two, one Andy can't control. PM me with your thougts.
 
How does Andy control it now? Who owns it?
 
ALPA true believers trying to quiet the masses - Never!

the MEC chairman of TSA
Ah, so there is no biased opinion on who controls the board.

Starting a forum takes about $60-$70 per year. The vBulletin software that the lounges are running is the expensive part, something like $150+/year for a license. But there are other, FREE PHP bulletin boards out there.

The hardest part about starting up the board would be giving the other mesanites a heads up...

I'm sure you could find $250 between 2k pilots! HOPEFULLY!!!

(I'm in for 10 bucks)
 
Donations won't be necessary, if all goes well we should be live this week, just ironing out the name.

Stay tuned, we're trying to build one that ALPA won't run and JO won't either, a place where everyone will feel free to post what's on thier mind be it Union, workplace, overnights whatever will be fair game.
 
If you want help setting up a forum I can recommend OnSiteHosting. Billy hosts my forum for AWAC.

You can email him at [email protected]

You can configure the forum however you want to be full open access to anyone or you can have a confirmation control of who is coming in. It's your choice. Just tell him "DiverDriver" recommended him.
 
www.noduesforhughes.com appears to be open.

seriously, i wouldn't limit it to mesa pilots. TSA lounge is down. is eagle next?

or better yet, just buy the lounges from the TSA chair. what would he want?
 
I've got a vbulletin forum already up and running at www.airlineempires.net and I'd be more than willing to provide private forums for Mesa (or any airline for that matter). I'd need a moderator, and he'd be able to set up the password, and all requests for that password would have to go through him. This way only Mesa pilots would be able to read it, and it would be outside the control of ALPA.

PM me if you're interested.
 
Dont forget all the attourney fees to fend off the requests for user IP's and information. Plus the company letters we recieve demanding us to "shut it down immediately". You will have to add that into your budget.

You never know. AH is probably fighting off the semi-quarterly MEC chair recall attempt.

HEY, IT'S WHAT HE DOES BEST!

i would call it an educated guess.

eaglelounge is up and running.

mesalounge had an active dialogue going between two candidates running for mec chair, plus angelo's opinions and suddenly it is closed. now one of the moderators is starting his own forum to "avoid" AH interference. hmm. good guess i would say.

tsalounge has a similar screen and it is suggested in another forum that this was the cause. http://forums.flightinfo.com/showthread.php?t=71327

as far as mgmt requests, etc. ignore these ludicrous requests. if you get more than 2, then a kind word from my attorney suggesting a harassment lawsuit is in the works if they persist.

if you use www.ezboard.com here is a sample of JetBlue http://p102.ezboard.com/bjetblueairways

once you get the board set up you can reserve an domain from Yahoo! for like $4 a year and make it whatever you want. www.noduesforhughes.com etc etc.

Ugh. Great site, if you like having lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of pop-ups. And the yahoo.com boards are even worse. I noticed the JetBlue site only has 22 members.

Thanks anyway. :(

For like 20 or 30 bucks a year you can lose all the pop ups
 
Sounds like the truth is being posted on Mesalounge and AH doesnt like you guys to read or know about it.
You guys are a good group of guys. You just need to get that fat turd out of office.
 
The new board is up and running. The learning curve is steep, but it should be ready very soon.
