What's Happened to Our Site?

MadMarket;

The substance of what your have purchased is based on the quality and the continuation of the posts of your members.

Ads on every intital posts/threads, diminishing infrastructure and poorly advised moderation does not foster further sponsorship from the posters that attract the ads that pay you.

I dare you to run a poll that asks whether members are more or less satisfied since you have taken over the site.

With the exception that you haven't banned UrmaBlume for his pretentiousness, egotism and general lack of any redeeming qualities I find that the site has picked up again in recent weeks.

Well done (except for that) MM

Oh, I see the pretender without portfolio who has never posted any material or technocology that she, herself, authored continues stalking like a vindictive bitch that has been scorned is on again after so many changes of heart and position.

And I thought it was the part of the mission to ban off-topic, content free, personal attacks as part of the measure of quality of the site and yet so many of your posts fall into that category.

You know how it is with those foreign names, it often depends on how you pronounce it and how many syllables it has. Tha'ts how come I sign some UB and others UrmaBlume.

Tell you what. As much as I welcome feedback and good suggestions you just gripe. So if you'd like to buy the site take out your checkbook and make an offer. Since you know it all I'm sure it will be great. Or just find another forum to complain about.

We will be just fine.

I took a little breather from TL and looks like Pat just can't stop w/ the complaining and name calling. It's too bad he's been allowed to operate here for so long; whereas the 'trash' at ET banned him fairly quickly.

Sorry Mad, it is still the best of its kind but at the same time I am not the only one that thinks that while it is still #1 it is not as good or as well run as it once was.

I know that I am not the only one to complain about the sudden upsuge in intrusive ads and the different technical glitches.

I don't believe that I "just gripe," way less than 1% of my posts have anything to do with the site and of those not all are complaints.

I have both haters and followers, have made over 400 posts mostly about new trade decision support technologies and have been thanked 445 times so I have made at least some contribution here.
