How and why does any of this negative crap belong in a DXing forum?

I'm glad to say that I've have been friends with N2RJ for years. She's a member of the North Jersey DX Association, an organization of which I am a past President and a long-time member. We have helped each other with antenna work in the past, she's operated my station in contests and Field Day, and until her old MonstIR antenna failed for the last time a few years back, she was an active DXer with somewhere around 320 confirmed, IIRC. She still kicks my ass on 6m and 160. She doesn't tolerate fools or idiocy, and that's a good thing for the most part, although I can see how it might rub some folks the wrong way. Hell, my own opinions on certain things do that on a daily basis.

As for her work on the Board, as you can imagine I supported her going up against the former director and I think she had some excellent ideas, but as is the case in a lot of things, sometimes no good deed goes unpunished.

As for the video, HOLY CRAP you do realize that was published on April Fools Day, right? Right??

As someone with personal experience regarding her nastiness and intolerance, I say good riddance. She sucks as a human being.
Judgmental much?

She's a terrible person and I don't have a problem saying it. I also don't have a problem with you judging me over an opinion. Maybe look in the mirror?
Walk the talk.
By my count, you have two strikes:
1. Being very impolite, and
2. Not knowing what the concept of libel entails.

Anything else you’d like to add?

You're a riot. I bet you're real fun at parties.
So now it’s at least 2 people you don’t know but unhesitant to  make uninformed judgments about. Perfect record!

Nah, nobody's perfect. I am damn good, though. See ya, pal.

I am an active member on about 10 different forums and it is only on eHam that a person can post another persons funny April Fools Joke and it somehow turns into a nasty argument about the person who made the Video.
Jesus Christ did the Prune juice in rural America run out!

This is why this forum only has about 10 active members.
