the MavTV debacle.
the drone.
the 2 riders being injured due to track posts.

seems like in year's past, he's been pretty active on here and always addressed things as they happened.

but this year, it's crickets from him. Anybody know why? Seems like there have been a few issues where his comment would have been appropriate.

I get you and I kind of agree on the face of it, but with the changes / issues you've mentioned you have to imagine he has his hands full sorting that stuff out and running the series and whatnot?

Not making excuses, and it's not like he needs anyone to talk for him, let alone some totally random clown from England, but this is certain to be the busiest part of a busy year for the guy.

I think it's great he pops in here from time to time, but there shouldn't be an expectation that he is always at our disposal.

Personally, I take it as a sign he is getting things fixed. I don't know him at all, but he's always seemed to be the person in here to own up to any issues/mistakes and fix them. The fact you haven't seen anything tells me he is very much doing all he can to fix the Mav issues, and keep the nationals on track.
I do always appreciate that he posts in here, but don't expect it. The guy has got to be unbelievably busy.

Probably working on fixing it in real life.

For the record, I'm pretty salty about how MavTV has been handled/described beforehand, but I don't blame him for not coming on here to walk the gauntlet and get berated by hundreds of random people that won't actually help anything.

We’re going into round 3 of the outdoors and most of us can barely watch the shit. Would be nice to hear why this happened.

DC is probably locked in and focused on his training. To practice Thursday at red Bud race the pro track Friday. Then race on the night track Friday and Saturday night. Work Saturday for the national. Then race Sunday on the pro track.

I get that. I'm simply saying that if we use history as a guide, he TYPICALLY responds to "major" happenings regarding the Nationals, and the 3 events I listed seem like things he would respond to in the past.

I get he's busy (we all are) - was just curious if others have noticed his silence. Carry on!

In most cases actions speak louder then words.

For MavTV, putting out apologies and updates is nice, but actually working hard to fix the apps, servers, and overall service is critical.

For the banners/metal steak, working with all the track owners, setup crews to make sure this doesn't happen again is critical.

Updating vital is nice, but not critical. I am hoping DC is doing/pushing for the critical things, and will come update us clowns once those are taken care of first.

Sounds like he might have bit off a bit too much, maybe this is where some of the issues are coming from.

I heard he meant some hot, horney executive woman that talked him into taking a trip to cancun on spur of the moment.

He will be on here soon telling us all about it

just to be clear - I wasn't implying a criticism of him. I understand the guy has a lot going on. I just find it a little odd that he's taken this year away from the sporadic responses/updates we've had in year's past. That's all.

DC has more fans on here than not, so usually you get piled on if you critique him or his series. As far as the stakes I’m sure his lawyer told him not to comment, could imagine anything he says on that could open up MX Sports to ambulance chasers

Well the trolls on here have gotten worse and have tore into just about every insider that has posted in here so eventually they just stop....

Wouldn’t you rather he use his time to work on actually fixing the obvious issues instead of coming on here to just have people pissed off at him regardless of what he says? It’s a shitshow right now and no doubt DC knows it.

Nobody mentioned or implied anything about expectation.
Simply that when typical activity and/or habits change, it’s reasonable, or even human nature to wonder why.

The funny thing is if DC was in here replying to everyone's complaints they would then complain that he was wasting too much time on the forum instead of fixing the issues. Can't please everyone.

Apparently he's been unsuccessfully chasing droners off the circuit (i'm sure this was said earlier)

Keefer said last he saw DC, DC was in his man-cave counting massive stacks of cash.
