Take heed and read!

I just read a disturbing ad. http://www.astromart.com/classifieds/details.asp?classified_id=390445 It was from Herb, concerning certain persons that are hassling him and his crew. These people are here on Astromart. This is not ATWB, but Astromart people that are creating this problem.
Herb can not get a break, his staff can not get a break and they are all at the breaking point.
Something has got to be done here or else the repercussions may be tragic to all of us here.
This giving Herb and staff a hard time over Astromart difficulties or what ever they are has just got to cease! >
For those that do not understand, it is a privilage to be able to come here and not a right. This is not a money making proposition, it is a big drain on the economy of Herb and all the others that pay the bills here.
No one has any right to get on Herbs nerves to this point. I for one would be guite willing to kick out anyone that continues to cause problems that could lead to the end of Astromart as we know it.

Herb, If there is ANYTHING that the 99% of us who appreciate Astromart can do to eliminate the 1% who are a pain in your patootie... just let us know. Practically everyone I have had dealings with here are a complete pleasure. This a WAY too valuable and enjoyable site for us to lose.

I agree with the thought of an annual fee. What this site offers is considerable and well worth $25 per year. God knows we have all paid more for less valuable things in our life.

Herb,
I agree with what has already been said in this thread:
1) Thank you for what you have done for us with Astromart. I have learned more from this site than from any other resource I can think of...the information content here is staggering!
2)Again, thank you...the ability to buy and sell great equipment from great peoople at great prices has been a major blessing to me. And this from a guy whose occupation it is to sell at RETAIL!
3) And again, I agree...do whatever you have to in order to make the best life you can for yourself and your family and employees...God bless everyone of them for working with you to help you with the vision you had for Astromart.
4) If there is any way to keep it going in it's present form, without too many major changes--TELL US WHAT WE CAN DO! I will get in line behind all the other Astromarters to help you make this thing work for all of us.
Just let us know, Herb, we're with you.

Herb, let us know what it is WE can do to help you, and we certainly will...
I'm sorry you and your crew have to go through this, it is just not fair.

Thank you for everything,

Is that true? I always assumed that the ad fees and sponsor fees and increased business to ATWB produced a net profit, or this wouldn't be here. I mean, lots of people here buy from ATWB who would theoretically not have done so absent AM. Herb's certainly a smart businessman and I have trouble believing he'd dump money into this continually if it was a huge loss.
