    Take HH public, put it on the NYSE as a penny stock. When you want a dip to buy, I'll act like a lunatic and cause the stock to plummet.

    penny stock would not qualify for NYSE
    *pemmy


    Side note, one of DJ's ILTCDJDJIWILTD twatter follows spouts chincessantly about pemmy stocks, the weird ones always chincorporated in Nevada or Florida.

    This may be the dumbest thread ever created in this cesspool of moronic bullshit.

    Not surprising considering who the OP is.

    The TL;DR version is: But the truth is that running a platform for culture creation is, increasingly, a charity operation undertaken by larger companies. Servers are expensive, and advertisers would rather just throw money at Facebook than take a chance on your weird, problematic network. Generating and incubating internet culture has little market value in and of itself.

    You don't know anything about servers or technology in general. Fuck off
    riiiiiiight.... well, actually I do but I didn't write the article -- one point is that weird assholes like you saying "fuck off" are one reason advertisers don't like their images sitting on the same screen.
    Fuck off.
    Well, I didn't invent the internet or the failing culture creation websites like this one. I think you invested in this. And I know you aren't a dude either in the fuck off bro-culture here. Don't invest heavily in it...
    As someone who made a significant contribution to this site when it started, I never looked at it as an investment. I looked it as a way to help build something that I'd enjoy and 4+ years later, I'm still enjoying it.

    You act like those of us who contributed expected some financial returns. I don't think any of us expected that. If it comes to that at some point in the future, great. If not, that's great too.
    This is exactly right

    OK! mostly I was referring to those posts made about advertising issues in relation to broader trends on the internet, not trying to discredit Derek (Fetters-nachos is another matter)

    I understand and I never took any offense.

    Also because this place is about as advertiser-friendly as the Klu Klux Klan official site

    270 Electoral votes disagree.

    Feels like a "Later Guys" post is brewing.
    Derek seems like a nice guy but I have a feeling that the "Later Guys" might be from him. The tone of his announcements don't paint a picture of reaping money hand over fist. In fact it sounds exactly like exactly what is depicted in the article.
    Well no shit. Message boreds haven't been worth anything for five to seven years. Scout has went under like five times in the last seven years.
