If there had been any such study re said long term effect of ca, the mud slinging may have been avoided. Enough, is enough, is too much.

Have to agree with you on this, Sharpie01 and MikeCam. This guy needs to stop throwing muck around like breadcrumbs at a schnitzel festival.

Speaking of HK, this guy will probably pick up one of those pulsejets, actually get it working and injure and deafen himself, then sue MAAC, RCC and everyone else because he didn't read all the safety warnings and threads about how to safely use them.

Did like Morrison's comment on the "3000 a month" -- shows that this guy doesn't know how credit cards work, or he's hoping that no one else does.

….. sheesh, talked to one of my buddies from Sask the other day and he just received another letter of nonsense about this topic demanding the removal of the board (Except the 3 directors that apparently agree with this dude)

Re: Have there been any studies into the long term effects of CA exposure?

While this isn't a MAAC site, and while censorship is generally a bad thing, I think the fact that some people are presenting misleading, at best, information from behind clear pseudonyms is something of a problem.

As an example: In several of the critical posts I have seen similar language that refers to the credit card as being '$3,000 per month.'
I find this odd since most credit cards have a limit that is based on the current balance, not a renewed limit every month. As best as I can tell, the wording is there to suggest the card is a $36,000 slush fund for the president - which is definitely not the case. (The President has an expense line of $12,000 in the 2013 budget)

The final bit of worry about people posting like this is the fact that the site owners, and possibly moderators, would be considered liable in the event of any defamation/libel actions. The fact this is an open forum doesn't protect the forum owner from legal action from the contents published on it!

If you don't mind, Karl, I am going to hold off for now, and here's why:

Unlike the WAAC website fiasco that only allowed a one-sided view of the MAAC issue, these forums are open to BOTH SIDES for a real-time discussion.

The way I see it, there are a lot of intelligent people here on RCC that have brains and think for themselves. In all the threads discussing MAAC, the MAAC Board or problems in particular zones, the discussion was lively from both sides.

Both sides have an opportunity to make their points in an open forum free of censorship as long as it doesn't degrade into derogatory comments and insults. I have learned a lot from these discussions, from both sides, and based on that and using my own brain, I was able to formulate my own opinion on what is right and what is wrong, regardless of what some people want me to believe.

If people want to make accusations, let them. I learn more from the rebuttals and counter-rebuttals than I can from whispers in the shadows. Based on that, I am a more informed MAAC member and because of this, I know how I want to be represented and by whom. I think many MAAC members feel the same way.

Or they are being handcuffed by legal matters.
Or how many times have we seen people on TV saying that "under the advice of their lawyers", they cant make any statements because "the matter is still being dealt with", or "its still before the courts". I'll bet there is still some BS plaguing the current MAAC board from the hanger's on that want to drag MAAC down. A shame, really. The dust still hasn't settled. I'll bet that's why we still haven't heard the whole story from the MAAC board.

Re: Have there been any studies into the long term effects of CA exposure?

"NO HARM DONE TO MAAC". Not quite. We did lose all our points we gained on the new credit card when Maac was forced to cancel it and go back to the card with no points.

Another 1 post gutless wonder and only a year too late. I'm not the brightest guy around, just ask Sharpy01, but it would seem to me the only reason to continually bring up this old news is for a political one. I'm wondering if all this commotion from the very beginning was not at all about a credit card but all about political agendas and serving one's self over another. Hmmm....

One question, does Maac at least now have a credit card with points????


One thing that still bothers me...

This statement from Max,

I LEARNED ALL THIS BY READING THE FORUMS HERE. FROM PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF AND THE RESPONSES MADE BY PEOPLE LIKE RICHARD. YOU SHOULD DO THE SAME BEFORE MAKING ACCUSATIONS OF THIS NATURE

I also had to learn the TRUTH about the credit card and the Dodd resignation letter from this forum. We were all told in the beginning that it would come out in the end. To give the Maac board a chance to deal with the issue. That there was confidentiality reasons that kept Maac from explaining what was going on. It's been how long now and as far as I can tell it never did fully get explained from Maac in an open letter to all members.

I think that if Maac had come out with a proper statement about the events and facts of this whole situation we would not still be discussing it now.

Mac, you seem to be a pound shy and a day late with your question. You should have asked this question when Richard was in office, now is irrelevant.

You seem to know what the cards are, with which banks and for how much. Your question is rhetorical... you'r being a troll IMO.
