Welcome to November!
October was another great month for SatelliteGuys, thank you for all your support of SatelliteGuys in October!
We begin November with a few changes and introduce another SatelliteGuys feature!
First a change in staff, I am proud to announce that Professor Mike (or as you know him Rockymtnhigh) has been promoted to a full site administrator. Since coming on staff Mike's white glove care for SatelliteGuys has been showing. His dedication and devotion to help make SatelliteGuys a better place for all have been impressive. Please help me welcome him to the admin staff!
Second I screwed up. Last month I made a new rule here of NO LINKS in your signature. After putting this rule into place I had regrets about making it as some folks who had valid non commercial links were affected. To me this violated the spirit of SatelliteGuys, a place where people can be a lot more "free" then other sites.
Because of this the rule about not having links in your signature is now no longer in effect. You can have ONE link in your signature, but it can't be to a site in commercial nature. The reason for no commercial links is because we have sponsors here, and its not fair to them if Joe from Joe Satellite starts putting links to his specials on his site for free while they are paying to help keep SatelliteGuys Online.
So if you had a link and it was to a non commercial site, feel free to add it again. My apologies for breaking the spirit of SatelliteGuys.
I am excited to announce that once again this year we will be holding a SatelliteGuys Holiday Party for our members and our staff.
In the past few years my wife Eva and I have literally spent thousands buying prizes to give away to our members. In the past years we have given away some of the most sought after holiday gifts and this year we will do the same. We have already started buying this years prizes!
This year however we are going to change the way we do things, as in the past few years a number of folks who won joined SatelliteGuys just for the chance of winning a prize and some of them won and were never seen here again. Because we want our true members to win we will be putting in a rule that you must have been a member of SatelliteGuys since a certain date (this date has not been established yet, but it may be November 15th) in addition the winner must have more then 5 posts to SatelliteGuys to qualify.
These prizes are to say THANK YOU to our active members for helping us remain the internet's largest and most popular satellite information site!
In addition we are buying extra prizes this year, and these extras will be given to our staff in a random drawing. All of these staff members here volunteer their time and besides the thank you gift card I send them all every year they get nothing for their hard work they don't get paid. I will be honored to be able to give them a chance to win some goodies as well.
Plus in addition we will be doing some exclusive giveaways for our pub members and supporting founders. As without our supporting pub members we would not be here today.
So stay tuned for more information about our Holiday Party!
Finally I would like to announce an exciting new feature to SatelliteGuys, its the radio and television feature, which allows you to watch and listen to LIVE Television and Radio Stations from around the world!
To access this new feature click on the new Radio & TV Tab. (You must be using the New SatelliteGuys Look style to see it)
Supporting Founders & Pub Members can even add new stations to others to enjoy!
We hope you enjoy you enjoy this new feature and the changes we have made! We continue to work hard to make SatelliteGuys better for YOU!
Thanks for being a member!
