View Full Version : SOTAR Website gone Members Only?
I used to go there every once in awhile and check out his newly uploaded videos. Tried today and its asking for username and password. No dice. And the Create an Account feature is disabled. Did SOTAR go Secret Squirrel? Actually have a BCG I need to send him for a new gas key (I have no staking tool) too.

I tried to get in without success. Must just be under construction.
I believe they went behind a paywall or something. They were getting quite a bit of crap from the internet. Some of it deserved, most of it not.
Chad is one of the nicest and smartest people I've talked to. Everything he said comes from experience and he has a reason for each procedure and detail he does. I don't often see now such detail oriented and engineering-minded people. I would happily sign up if he has a paid website.
Most of the critics came from "my ar shoots fine" crowd.
I really wish that Chad and/or Jim Fuller would have the something similar for AK as well.
Yes, there is a membership fee to keep the riff raff out and the noise level down. It is actually quite refreshing.

*raises hand* What is... "SOTAR"?

Any idea how one would go about doing this? I figured there was something set up under the Create an Account feature but that just redirects back to the login page. I agree, I would happily pay some money to get access. I like his insights and reasoning behind what it is he does. I have incorporated more than a few of his tips into my building process.
EDIT - Never mind. Found it. Got stuck in a redirect loop the last time I tried it.

In my world it's a white water raft manufacturer.

He's really nice when you question anything he does, or mention the name "Trajectory" in his presence.
I guess its cool hes found a weird cult following, even though hes just building a bird house per the manual.
Response to the notification I just got, in the clear:
The immediate above is not say again NOT a "...baseless attack..."
I'm not alone in having seen SOTAR and its followers treat some upright people with reasonable questions like dogshit on no other basis but a form of "*splutter* Do you know who I am...!!??!" before retreating behind the paywall.
Given that I demonstrably like to play with my food when it comes to handling people dorking about with group rules, here and elsewhere: Somebody who describes their for-reasons opinion on how an organization handles P2P interactions is NOT "attacking" said organization, nor its founder. Don't try to out-brig a brig-lawyer.

Whaaaaa? Did I read that correctly in that this seemingly innocuous thread generated a formal complaint and threat of legal action????

Struck a nerve, huh?

I hope I read that wrong. Because if anything said in this thread touched off a threat of legal action then some people need to stay off the interwebs.

JSantoro,
My message wasn't a demand. Nothing in my message was a legal threat. I'm not here to argue or fight with people, so instead of arguing with members I took a different approach.
If I did something to you, I would like to offer my sincere apologies.
I wish you all the very best.

Not throwing shade at JSantoro, but credit to SOTAR for taking it offline. We don't always have to air our disagreements in the thread for the whole world to see.
