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...allpurpleallgold said:

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.haie said:
You don't know anything about servers or technology in general. Fuck offApostleofGrief said: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.

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.allpurpleallgold said:

Coming from the dude who has flamed out on this bored like 3 times.
Too lazy to search for the last post you made when you left "for good", but to your credit it was funny in a fucktarded way.
Why dont you work some OT and donate to this place, since you are so concerned and cant stay away??

Hey look, at least if I flame out, I make it memorable. Most of the time I kind of enjoy the diversion of this place. I've got nothing against Derek or the crew here, but I think the internet isn't going to reward even hideously high numbers of hits with $$$ for maintaining some culture. As far as donation, no, mostly because of one or two posts. I mean, somebody posts a picture of guy falling out of a skyscraper on 911 and it gets a dozen likes. I'm actually not an asshole. I'm not personally going to fund a place for that. THere's limits. Do what you please -- but advertisers aren't paying for that and neither am I. Not a knock on Derek, again.

Actually I just talked to the advertisers and they specifically mentioned sensitive little twats like you as the reason they don't want their content here.ApostleofGrief said:Hey look, at least if I flame out, I make it memorable.
