I'll probably loose my nose for sticking it in here, but I don't care. The constant bickering back and forth is harshing my buzz, man.... I don't know anything more than anyone else; probably less than most. (I have my head up my ass 99.9% of the time.)
But, some of you all can talk and talk and talk about the same things, ad nauseum. A guy makes a 'hopeful' post about actually doing something positive about the situation, and nothing but negative comments occur in response. (And they are the SAME never-ending arguments!)
I don't know whether DJ Jorge is on the level, or whether he is on some quixotic, self-proclaimed mission as the savior of SIN; but I'd like to at least find out. If he is 'legitimately' involved in trying to get the brothels reopened, I'd like to find out how I (we) can help. [I'm betting it's not by continuing to repetitively type the same circle-jerk arguments on boards like this.]
Gonna have to agree with you, there. This has been a very depressing board to visit for the past several months (obviously, cause the hobby that brought us all together has been on indefinite hold since March).
I'll be honest, if it wasn't for the wealth of information and friendships I have made by becoming a member of these boards, I would probably still be a lurker. There's just WAY too much infighting and pessimism going on here (usually about things that have nothing to do with the brothels)...
We have the best news we've gotten in months and certain posters can't help but reply with negativity. Fact is, this entire situation is completely unprecedented. The brothels never faced anything like this since they were legalized in 1971. When they were silent, I had my doubts. But now, I feel like there's actual hope in a reopening. The line in the sand has finally been drawn. If Sisolak won't budge, his administration gets sued, which could cost him his emergency powers. And I'm sure he doesn't want that!
This may be a golden opportunity for all the rivaling brothels to finally come together and allow Hof's legacy to die with him, if at least temporarily. They are stronger together than apart, which is clearer now more than ever. Right now, the one thing they all share is that they're indefinitely shuttered. I think it's time for an armistice between all the houses!
Idk who DJ Jorge or the WMCA is. He made a similar post several months back on Varga's forum that he was able to schedule a meeting with Governor Sisolak. I never heard any follow-up regarding that. But if he's willing to help, he at least deserves a chance to have his case heard!
