You are comparing corporate sites with a grassroots site.
you keep attacking anyone that is not totally happy with donating to a site that doesn't get better!
Nope. They've been given info, don't understand it, and still whine. Most of these Freepers don't know what it takes to keep a site like FR going. There was another thread, a vanity, and knowledgeable techies who actually do this for a living posted info. It was enlightening. Post 97 Billthedrill Post 136 hadit2here.
Also money isn't always the problem. You can't fix what you can't find.......on a system in use.
how does Drudge or Michelle Malkin or Lucianne handle all their traffic?
If they have ads then they are corporate run which is a different animal.
or are we not allowed to voice our discontent on FR?
Being given info and ignoring isn't helping anyone. Expecting perfection is unrealistic. There are plenty of Freepers who "get it". Personally I think Jim should shut it down for diagnostic and repairs. But then there'd be complaints about THAT.
We need to go to ads. At least we’d have a site that runs.
