That's exactly why.

He is just pissed at the people dogging him on there.

People also kept posting a lot disturbing stuff on there.

 

[KidViciou$]

there were a hell of a lot of closet racists there

 

[HappyPuppy]

Howard Stern is a douchebag, a very, very rich douchebag.

 

[Babbles]

I used to like Stern a little bit, however he started to get more and more full of himself. Typical of many media people he thinks he knows more than what he really does and can't handle people talking crap about him.

IIRC, it was only a matter of days after it first opened that they closed new registrations and totally shut the board down to guests, because things weren't going according to plan. I guess it never changed

Speaking of badmouthing him, alt.fan.howard-stern on usenet morphed into a hate group a few years ago when the show started going downhill, and the bitterness and rants there range from hilarious to disturbing

uhhhh...no.

It's because people on the board can't act in a civilized manner and it became too big of a pain in the ass for him to moderate it.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

Because it was degrading to the point that it started to look too much like ATOT?

[Holycrap]

The main reason is that in became unmanageable. Beyond all the racist threads and harassment that was a daily part of the boards, Howard was not happy with people sharing information such as (i) where to get mp3s of his radio show (ii) how people could d/l the uncensored E shows that he was charging a $4.95 rental fee for and (iii) when he cut his Sirius deal his contract provided a cut of revenues he generated, which were to be tracked by use of a signup code Howard provided, but people on the board found better codes and rebates and this means real money to Howard and his agent.

 

[Liviathan]

wow..weird.

If you hold people to your standards of rationality, you will eventually die of a heart attack.

 

[imported_digitalelegance]

Grr. I finally get an account on that board, and it closes less than a week later. Oh well.

edit: O&A are on XM, which never promotes them for some reason...

 

[Liviathan]

Did he give a reason today why the shut down the BBS? Couldn't listen to the show.
