for the record. I'm not trying to compete with any other stations. i'm doing my own things. I'm just doing different thing on my station. Never have i said i'm better than everyone else. I have no disrespect for the people that run internet stations here. i just am promoting it. I have no where else to promote it. I don't know html and i'm search for a good hosting company. I'm sorry if people think i'm trying to compete, i'm not. thank you! austin.

Can you please cast your mind back to the topic that you posted some time ago on geeks are us regarding a website? Most of those posts on there had some usefull advice there, including 3 people that offered to help or build you a site.
I don't mean to brag, and i'm not the god of scripting, but i could have done you a site by now with out you having to do anything. Heck, it wouldn't even be that big, so i probly would have hosted your SITE anyway, aslong as you didn't use gigs and gigs of bandwidth a month.
But na, go your root, use some wysiwyg editer, which might get you a few plain pages, or maybe even something like phpnuke that might have done it better.
Once you've done that, find a host that is run by a kid (not hard) that puts lodes of adds on your page and makes you use a domain with your hosting.
Sorry, but thats probly whats going to happen.
Please don't get me wrong though, it is hard to get anything started on the internet, based on the amount of other sites that are well istablished that do what you do for example acb. However if you do cary on, i'm sure it will get bigger, just look at the guy that did the million $ homepage! But for the record, i have listened to your station whilst it was on automation and found it ok.
Keep it up, BEN.

o and to add to this, if you don't try to compete, you won't get anyware, period.

Yo just started listening. Sounds good so far.

Out of all of the stations in your corner of internet radio, i believe it's the blade that might actually do something of substance. I also, however, believe that you guys need to merge all of your stations into one large station, and again I call the blade the best banner to broadcast under of such things as Jammin hits, Brandon's station, Kev's station, etc.

## Post 12 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Sunday, 19-Nov-2006 12:57:54

well the blade and jammin hits have merged. also, the dan and mo show has a new home.

ok austin...let's pretend for a second that 12 of the 16 p revious posts weren't from you.
Now let's pretend that your station is worth the bullshit you say about it.
I listened without a thought in my head. I was disappointed right away. The fact that when you were on, and I sent messages saying how horrible your station was. You were flustered, something that you should've controled at the very least.
Finally, please, get some decent programming if you really expect to listen. In case you haven't noticed, you're practically the only one posting on this board.
I don't do online radio. It's never been an interest of mine. I do know a good show, or anything like that when I hear it though. That's why I've stayed with the same opinion throughout.

Austin, a few words of advice:
No one wants to hear:
on-air silence, mid-song audio adjustments, repetitive rambling...

## Post 21 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Saturday, 02-Dec-2006 18:49:18

jim! you need to listen again, dude. you get none of that with the blade. you get transitions that are clear, we id the songs, we bring people on the air and are open to sugestions. I appriciate the advice jim. advice is allways welcome. I'm working on being a better dj for all to hear. How can you enjoy a radio station that doesn't sound good? I'm not saying im the best but i'm working on being the best dj that i can be.

## Post 22 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Saturday, 02-Dec-2006 18:52:38

good garret. whatever. don't listen just know that the blade is great and we do a lot more shows then we used to. more shows are in the works. We just started less than 2 months ago. so give it time. but it's cool, i'm not flustered by the way. I don't care what you say. You can hate it all you want. i don't give a flying fuck. thank you.

## Post 23 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Monday, 04-Dec-2006 14:52:35

im done with this bored. i'm not posting here anymore. If you care about the blade or whatever ask me in qns. To all admins and cls, remove this topic. I'm sorry for posting here. The blade is having trouble now and i don't want ot post it here. so there you go.

## Post 24 by yankee g wolverine (Account disabled) on Monday, 04-Dec-2006 15:51:04

hahahahahahahahahaahahahahahah! just as I suspected would happen. You give up on your station after not even 2 months. Fuck, even celeb marriges have lasted longer.

## Post 25 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Friday, 08-Dec-2006 17:43:07

the blade is revived. listen tonight to hear it. we'll have a few good friends on with us!

## Post 26 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Friday, 08-Dec-2006 17:45:26

as much as you hate garret, it's back and in your face. tonight we'll have my buddies doug and justin on and we'll be spinning some music for you. get those requests in. someone said we can't play music, but fuck them we'll do what ever we want.
oh yeah when you call our listener line hit pound instead of star. sorry about that, that was my bad.
star is admin mode.

## Post 27 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Friday, 08-Dec-2006 17:49:46

we have no website no more. it's done. we just have the msn, skype name, aim name and that's it. so, the blade si back and better than ever. we're proud to say that. i love doing the blade and there are sooo many people who dis us but that's to be expected. and garret, we're back, so think before you speak. So shows that you thought wrong, you thought the blade was gone, but to the conntraire, it's not. so there you go.

## Post 28 by yankee g wolverine (Account disabled) on Friday, 08-Dec-2006 21:07:51

well, the blade is still not good. I listened for a shott period, to prove my very point.
It's the same shit, different spin on it. You'd be better off shutting it down. it's really horrible

## Post 29 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Saturday, 09-Dec-2006 8:45:06

hey all. man, last night i felt like shit. Sorry about that. i had a head ache from hell. I really wanted to broadcast but i couldn't. but tonight, for sure, we are throwing down. I don't know when but we are. if you have me on msn then you'll know or just add thebladeradio@gmail.com to find out.

## Post 30 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Friday, 15-Dec-2006 0:39:20

I'm restarting the blade. from the ground up. I've taken off, to rethink my broadcasting style. The first thing i noticed is the reason i had no listeners was no schedule. How are you supposed to have no listeners without a schedule? You can't. And second, to be more consistant. I realized the blade was not on as much as i'd liked to have been. I also wasted 10 dollars to have an add run on the zone witch the blade was down half the time witch resulted in multiple complaints. Last, my delivery. I listened to old archives and i found my delivery wasn't up to par. I'm gonna run test shows. But, for 2007, i want the blade off the ground. I'm not looking to license myself out now. I just want to get good shows going and a good fanbase going. I appoligize for all the trouble i've had with the blade. I really hope 07 marks a good year for the blade. I hope, you, the zoners give me another chance. I'm not here to compete. I'm just here to do radio and give the people something to listen to. If anyone wants to help me or something, please do so. Thank you so much!
austin

## Post 33 by Austin (the magic fan!) on Thursday, 28-Dec-2006 15:16:49
