• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Well, I had a pre planned speech prepared. Screw that. This is a good site. I would hate to see it fall under the bus due to crappy management.

Your implications are unclear. The management is good now, so it isn't clear what sort of speculations you've had. Are you wondering about future changes?

What I'm saying, is that this place is going down the tube, and that's a damn shame.

You know Bill, that seems to be your M.O. Pop in every once in a while, say something retarded and then pop back out.

I you were simply to eliminate step one, think how much less you would have to worry about.
 
guessing Bill doesn't want to be here so why does he keep coming back to complain about not wanting to be here because things are soooo bad ????

Whatever, John. You are an amusing character, but my patience is seriously limited when it comes to you .

I looked back in your recent posts and saw that a couple days ago you got a profanity infraction and were unhappy with that.

I am thinking that may have instigated this thread.

I've gotten infractions. If you think the site is good just pause,look at your infraction, change a little and don't get any more. They are given to help the site, try to see them that way.
 
Not exactly sure what you are using for a yardstick or comparison. Traffic is actually increasing here. Paid memberships aren't so hot lately, but I figure everyone is pinching their pennies harder.

So if you want things to be better here, chip in and help in that department.

Signed,

The Management

Well , yes, Lucille, I was a little pissed about that. Not so much because I was being kicked out, but for the lame reason I was being kicked.
 
Hmmm...I tend to agree. Without having to take on a full time job.

The Wolf Pack is very proficient at what they do, I view alot, but don't often contribute, I also don't have the time, by "chip in" I meant $. Bill, I didn't mean for this to sound like I'm directing the chip in to just you, but everyone that uses it.

Yes. I agree completely. Before I chip in my hard earned dollars, it would be nice to know how they were spent.
