Hey Listener, Rewind and anybody else. It's me Wolf from DRC. Maybe other users will migrate over here little by little.
Welcome, Wolfie! Sirius Backstage shut down. XMFan shut down. SiriusXM Fans shut down. The shutdown of Digital Radio Central appears to be imminent. I hope this site never shuts down. Now we need to persuade Charles to finally update the home page and remove all those ten-year-old stories!
I will join too. Since I now use the SXM app on my phone and deactivated my Edge radio, I will simply be Madison here.
Not to confuse with Madison on Alt Nation. Though I have no issues listening to her or that channel.
Quite a bummer about DRC.
Guess who this is?
Haha. But seriously, I don't know about this place. Channel98 umm, I mean Rewind is talking politics on about 20 different threads, all across the forum. So, how much are we going to have to avoid? And there are members on this forum, such as dm-4, who display a degree of childishness I haven't seen since the early days of the internet. It's like the kid who grew-up in the Bad Ronald room. I can't imagine discussing personal stuff with people like that lurking around.
ScotchandCigar has discovered capital letters. I'm impressed! On this site there is no "like" option – but you can click the six-pointed star icon beneath a post and then you have the option to say "I approve." Those approvals add to the poster's "reputation."
Oh, and the ads inserted into the threads are creepy and disturbing.
I imagine those ads bring in revenue that will prevent this site shutting down as three other Sirius, XM and SiriusXM sites have shut down – soon to be four.
I just shot Taylor an email. I can probably keep DRC running on my server if Taylor is OK with it.
If not, I'm happy to setup this place to cater to the DRC crowd. I'm not married to the structure or setup here. This site is basically an archive, but it doesn't have to be if people want to breathe new life into it.
My hero! Now can we get the home page updated?
Charles, I could write a brief history of Sirius and XM and their merger and you could replace those 10-year-old stories with it. I have experience. Since 1991 I have written a news column for a monthly radio fanzine. For three semesters I was news editor of the weekly Glendale College newspaper El Vaquero and for 13 years I wrote a daily column of radio history, music trivia and celebrity birthdays for the LARadio website.
HecticArt checking in as safe from danger! :p
I signed up a couple of months ago, but haven't posted here yet.
Thanks for starting this thread Wolf. I was going to start one called "The DRC Refuge Center" but this one still works.
