ok... so... we start another revolution! Only, now, we have all the time in the world to make a wicked plan.... so what would be the best way to start a new revolution?? Hmmm... I wonder... !

[LibertyEagle]

You're sounding a bit like George now, DJ. ;)

[Mahkato]

This involves the Ron Paul Rocket (http://www.ronpaulrocket.com/), doesn't it.

idk.. George is a cool guy, I got to know him a little bit... he really wanted RP to win just like all of us..

idk... freedom? That's what I was hooked on like 6 months ago... 6-9 months ago ;)

[idiom]

Actually the emergence of a private space industry might be one of the most liberating things that could happen to the world.

I think that is a bit to profound for DJ's taste though.

[mdh]

1> The Libertarian Party
2> Classical Conservative Coalitions in every state and a friendly takeover of the GOP
3> Operation Cat Herder
4> Advocacy for the NI4D
5> All of the above

We are working on congress now. So get going, we're still here! =) The two most popular candidates here are Murray Sabrin and William Lawson. There's also Vern McKinely and Amit Singh... and A LOT more.

It took the Goldwater revolution 15 years to bring the party back to conservatism. I'm sure we can do it in less time, but I will do it until I die if I really have to. =)

Dj.....Is your dog sick?

[MelissaWV]

How about you join the rEVOLution still going on? It's not past September yet. While you "took a break" the rest of us kept going and got things done as best we could. How is it you've shown up to "lead" a new rEVOLution, but you're the same person who drops everything as soon as things get rough? Can the members of that new group expect the same flippancy with their money, time, and effort?

Perhaps the story about what went down with rpr would brighten this place up a bit. ;)

[MelissaWV]

I am still precisely the same brand of crazy I've always been, in the same room I've always been in. mdh is still the same Just, Energetic, Rambunctious Knowitall, and in that same room as well!

Everyone else is all over the place.

And yes, I've noticed an incredible lean towards insanity amongst the RPR alums... I attribute mdh and myself surviving it unchanged to the fact that since we're already crazy, that's like a little layer of immunity to the ghemmy-crazy that's been sweeping people away.

Torchbearer: If you REALLY wanna hear what happened, you'll need an hour and an air-sickness bag. I'm not going to post every little transaction on here, though, because it'd just take waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long. And besides... I don't want the drama llama to show up :(

Wait I insulted myself, too :eek: or is that a typical minimalist response? I'm free to insult myself, but once my insulting spills over to others... *ponders*

Noted, however. I shall edit :D

please... no.

let's not make petty shit public.


it started good, got bad, went from bad to worse...


mdh and melissa are still the shit though.


i haven't chatted it up w/ loti in a while, but he seems to be doing well.


what i wonder about is the fate of the original splinter group.


where are they now?

[MelissaWV]

1st Splinter Group was technically RPRR, which is undergoing a "reformat" and is not currently around in the recognizable way it had been before.

1A was DjLoTi leaving

2nd was the group that went to videos, and they are still around.

3rd split contributed to Revolution Broadcasting, also obviously still around.

[DjLoTi]

look at what happened to this thread.. melissa what are you going on about...?? What's all this about RPR dude I owned that station back in like may and I made it happen, i worked really hard to expand the scene and make it bigger...

I mean Ron Paul didn't win so after like 9 months jeez like take a break is exactly what I did .. .

I'm always gonna be a Ron Paul supporter, he is by far the best candidate that ran in 2008. I just wanna do something new.. but not now.. maybe in like....... a week or two ( ??? ) who knows

[DjLoTi]

oh and shouts out to all my homies who posted up on the thread :D

[DjLoTi]

Is it too early to start hyping up some massive new thing?? LoLz.. Please, I'm DjLoTi. I make it work and I make it happen.. I make it pop and RP ain't exactly been poppin as of late 4 me neway but what you must always remember... between me and you.. is that we live in different worlds, and that's the way it's always going to be, so I can't do what you can do, and neither for you can me, I'm Island, comeon.. Liveontheisland .. djloti ... i'm exactly what i was and what i'll probably always be... freggin me!!!! so comeon someone give me a hug

[sophocles07]

go tell it to the ocean pothead

[DjLoTi]

Wow, quick suggestion for you to be nicer to people in general since politics is such a people-thing... you're probably just jealous cuz u ain't seen the same beaches I had hahahah :D :)

[CurtisLow]

I think DJ's been hittin' the pipe, yo.

That was my first thought too.... :D

[DjLoTi]

Dude ppl say that in real life too idk what it is .. maybe it's just cuz i act like a beach bum lol ...

And in those months you owned the station, you did not establish a corporate bank account, you did not pay obligations to people who paid out of their pockets to provide coverage for events, you asked for then didn't pay for apparel to be made, all in all leaving over $1000 in bills on top of the regular monthly costs. Unpaid.

You still have not told anyone what your fabulous new idea is, however I can rest assured that once you find people to do the actual *work* you will go AWOL, with or without the money, only to appear months later claiming that the people who carried on your work should just go to a beach and chillax.

"A New Revolution" OK... what's the goal? Who's the target audience? Who's going to do the work? How's it funded? Does it have anything to do with Ron Paul? If not why's it on here :(

[DjLoTi]

omg melissa... you really bring the omg to the omg grassroots revolution thread...

Is that what happened to the station? I liked RPR, it should still be kicking..

[DjLoTi]

Torchbearer, you can think what you want, but I sold the radio station and hopefully it's being run by someone who can commit full-time to the project since I could not, and because of that RPR lost it's identity for awhile, but hopefully Rayzer42 makes it come back.. he's done a good job, I'd recommend adding the Ron Paul radio myspace to your friends list so you can catch the bulletins he puts out... he's had some good guests on

I don't know what happened. that why I asked.

Well, I can tell you that everything that happened with Ron Paul radio couldn't be explained in less then half a paragraph and certainly not by MelissaWV

Rayzer is now part of RevolutionBroadcasting.com

The domain name, RonPaulRadio.com, has been sold to Ray Powell by Nick (DjLoTi). The contract was signed, and payment has been made as agreed, but the domain name has not yet been transferred. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. <- from ronpaulradio.com (the website, which was all that was sold)

Requests from me to purchase or otherwise acquire the actual station itself as a brand or entity were unanswered. Btw you still own "LOTI,LLC" ... I hope you filed your taxes.

I'd like to know. Thought you could give me a reader's digest of why its not online.
it was the perfect domain name.
Why isn't rayzor using the name?

Hey melissa, I gave him the website, he hasn't updated RPR.com yet... stay the fuck out of my business that you have no reason going into, since you literally know nothing about what was done or what I have done!! A nice example of how you just need to learn not to talk about things you don't know about, figure something out with matt or something since that's all you talk about anyway !!! Why don't you ask Matt what happened with all that shit back then?

*nods* milly posted this the other day and I've been helping when I can... I'm not just idling around ;) It's a worthy effort, though; I love that guy. Trying to get calls made before the weekend.

Loti's a crook. I donated $30 to RPR only to find out he took it and ran, along with thousands in other donations to the station.

Thanks for nothing.

[Cowlesy]

I gave a $100 or $150 to this venture back in the day.

I learned my lesson.

That's probably why some people get very angry on here when I am a huge pain about transparency about those requesting donations for projects.

Legitimacy isn't the question, it's transparency when soliciting donations from strangers on the internet.

[amy31416]

Is it just me, or is anything that is Ron Paul + Radio kind of a big mess?

Yes, that is why we should support more worthwhile causes such as the ron paul rocket. ;)

Man, you remember when I broadcasted live from Orlando, FL, for the debates? And we had that big afterparty/rally. Dude, you may think that money went to nothing but everything RPR was about was the movement, I don't know you, and you don't know me, but I don't respect your assertions nor do I respect many others.

Sorry but if it wasn't for the donations there would have been no Ron Paul radio, we did a lot of things on the donations, many people broadcasted live from debates and rallies and contrairy to popular belief, it was a lot of hard work and news flash, the campaign *crumbled*, if anybody knows this it's me for sure... It was just hard to make it happen, we tried to make people work and make everything perfect... and we *we're* successful because Ron Paul radio was all about the movement, and because of us I'd say it's a fair assessment that we improved major donation days for Ron Paul, and because of us we increased the revenue amounds for him. We were also the only on-scene reporting from the Iowa caucus. We had the official numbers first before *anybody* !!! It was a lot of work and I tried to make a good radio environment but the fact of the matter is it was an open donation policy, and I tried to keep things fair for everybody and make everything happen the best I could, it was all about the movement, so we had people broadcast that's what it was about....

The Ron Paul blimp got at least 150,000$$ for sure and for 30,000$ I could have had a real live radio station for 4 months in Iowa before the caucuses but that was back when nobody cared... I'm sorry if it wasn't everything you wanted but it wasn't exactly everything I wanted either, it wasn't perfect but we made the revoluton better and we really pushed the limit for Ron Paul. We did the best we could but it was really difficult, that's why I just couldn't do it, I hope everybody is happy with the things I did do because I really did work hard and did the best I could to make the best thing I could for Ron Paul and the movement.. And I am still very useful. Maybe I just don't understand why everybody's so upset but I am too, after all, I gave like $600+ to Ron Paul and he still didn't win, I sacrificed my dime, and I also did put money into RPR, so lets be easy here ppl...=/

[acroso]

How many "McCain Troll Points" do you guys have?

[LibertyEagle]

I have no knowledge of the claims of missing money at the end, but I do know that DJLoti worked his backside off to get that radio station going. He did it on a wing and a prayer and had little help from anyone else for quite awhile. I personally thought it was amazing he pulled it off on the scale that he did.

[Conza88]

RPR kicked some serious ass back in the day.
But I was really disappointed about the faction shit.. I thought people, and above all, OUR kind of people - could get over childish shit like personality clashes etc.. I think management could have been a lot better..

As terms of production, was pretty ace. Thanks for the good times, miss the packed irc chat.. :D
