• 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.....

    =====================


    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....

Negative karma reinstated?

I don't even look at mine... I rarely rarely use it... I didn't even know it was gone lol
 
Rich had the site down for a little while to poke around and figure out what was going on with the attachments. It's possible some default settings got reset during that time. That'd be my guess, anyhow. If so, the ability to leave negative karma may be temporary.
 
Gary, I would be very hard pressed to give someone negative feedback, moreso than positive. It would have to be REALLY bad for me to do it as I dont wish anything negative on anyone just yet. Give me time though, I might be giving up that passive thought process soon enough... LoL
 
I've used it in the past here and there.. and probably will again... I like the feature and glad it was brought back.
 
Well, I decided that rather than punish everyone for people abusing one of the toys or tools of this site, the more effective approach may be to actively deal with the PEOPLE who are doing the abusing. Quite frankly, I don't expect my mods to spend a whole lot of time trying to figure out who is actually at fault, meaning who STARTED the crap. And I know I certainly am not. So the simplest solution is to simply ban BOTH persons engaging in a pissing match.

There now, see how easy that policy makes it for us? :yesnod:
