Hmmm, our FRiends seems to be having a little spat...
the masses are starting to complain...

I love this website but it’s performance has become an embarrassment.

I was going to donate my dues but got so disgusted I decided to wait. Got to hand it to DU, they are never slow

It's not slow. What word works best for slower than slow?

More than a few of us are a bit 'wondering' about priorities with these increased budgets...a working website, one would think, would be number one, and apparently it isn't.


...and Big Jim responds:

"To those who wish to leave because of it, see ya."

"If FR dies, that’s that."


I'd hate to think the minions might be distracted from the issues of the day...

2. RimJob spends it on expensive food and drink
hoping without result, that his shit won't stink.

13. Chinese Communist
I've seen the term used a lot recently. And hack attacks from China are a huge problem.

8. Reminds me of Blazing Saddles
RimJob (holding gun to his own head): Nobody complain or the website gets it!

9. He keeps "zotting" his members and telling them to shut up or leave.
Then he wonders why he has trouble raising funds. I guess cause-effect relationships are not his strong suit.

12. If they are willing to give up their old site and start completely over, it will be cheap.
But they will literally start over from scratch. They can keep the old site up as an archive.

You can put of a new site using vbulletin or IPB for very little money. Add a hosting plan to it and you're on your way. It's cheaper than a rewrite and porting the old site. But Jim seems to be happy with a smaller site.

We're top of the line and ultra-modernistic...
We have all the latest "bells and whistles" that you dumb fucks can only dream of...
