Posted over 1 year ago UPDATE: Go to Page #2. ++++++++++++++++++++ 12-21-11 Well folks, we have endured some definitely difficult times on our site. Allow me to update you as what is in our future. As of now, the last management contact I had is moving forward on a new opportunity and will no longer be with us. So, the only person left is an overworked employee who it trying to hold the building together with kite string. What will this mean? It is playing out to be this: Because of the highly complex technical issues we're up against and no one available to help out, we are on our own. I can assure you that I will be here as well as most of the current Moderator team. Verification stars will not be issued. Some things will not be removed due to being outside our permission level. And the HTML issues will remain. After being a cop for bunches of years, I had learned to make due with what I had. Rarely did I get anything for free and cool gear was always out of reach. Same here. I will help with your issues as much as possible as well as the Moderator team. But, for all of our enthusiasm in early 2011, we will not be seeing any of the innovations we compiled for a l-o-n-g time. Don't look for 2012 to be a banner year of improvement. Since we are not a money generator, we sit at the bottom of pile for technical help. Still, you are a sturdy crew that continues to exude a 'git-r-done' mentality. That's kinda what we need around here. We may not have all the stuff we need on the site to make life easy, but LEO work has never been easy. Keep at it folks. Don't let the broken things get ya down. And most of all, stay safe out there.

| Posted over 1 year ago Thanks Sarge. I know you're doing your best with what little they give you. I will continue to help out with whatever I can to keep this site together and I'm sure the other die-hards out there feel the same way I do. Is it possible to come up with our own way to show verified LEOs? I know this is an issue for some and if we can show verification in a different form it might help with some of those fears.

| Posted over 1 year ago BUMP!!! Thanks for the update, Sarge!! This situation reminds me of a saying that we had when I was Active Duty Army: "We the willing, led by the unknowing are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing." |

Agreed. When I came on board with the initial group there was a personal verification process where I was contacted by a moderator as well as my agency to verify true LEOs. Ideas? "Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry." - Mark Twain MODERATOR #9 |

| Posted over 1 year ago Golly Willikers, I gotta get me a job at Monster! Those folks get promoted quicker than a greased squirrel shot outa a potato cannon! Only the STRONG survive, and guess what......we are STILL HERE! Let's rally around the Sarge and make this site the place we all know and love once again!

| Posted over 1 year ago Well Sarge, at least we know what we are up against ! I like the idea of finding a way to verify our own. If they could give you that capability of issuing the star, we could promise to leave the overworked employee alone and deal with out stuff ourselves ! Let me know if I can help with anything.

| Posted over 1 year ago Thanks for the info Sarge! The main thing is that we can communicate and this site serves as a vehicle for that. It is my experience that those who weather the storms are usually rewarded. I will stay on the ship with my Policelink family instead of jumping overboard into the rough seas to battle the waves alone. Of course, not many of the friends I have made on here are the types to depend on the safety of standing on shore, and neither am I. God bless and stay safe!

| Posted over 1 year ago Thanks Sarge for the update. Actually except for a few minor things I don't see it so much as a problem as something good. Look at it this way, WE finally get to run the show! This way we do not have some weenie running around demanding that we be so PC that we call a dirtbag just someone who for lack of a warm upbringing with not enough toys and butt kissing by his parents they would not be 'acting out' and murdering others and how that is our fault, not his. <LOL> I'm there for you Brother and while I have refused to get really involved deeply in the past, I am now offering to do whatever you wish of me. Unfortunately some of my disabilities prevent me from remembering how to do intricate computer actions just let me know what I can do for you. |

Maybe We are better off on our own here at PoliceLink ! Happy New Year and Best Wishes to Our Sarge .................

Thanks for the update and thing Cat_D and BigNTS are right, we need to be able to verify, sometimes the restricted areas are a refuge from the trolls and a place to have discussions that everyone shold not see.. |
