... the freeloaders, the complaints and name-calling will begin. Malcontents will accuse DW of "selling out" the userbase for the almighty dollar and decry the corporate takeover of the Internet. How dare the DW owners value making the mortgage payment over the rights of the userbase not to be reminded that a world exists beyond the silicone sphere of the Internet, a world in ...
In case you haven't heard, LJ has summarily banned thousands of users and communities in a purported attempt to "combat incest." Caught in this round-up were support communities devoted to the victims of incest and child molestation as well as a Spanish-speaking community used for the discussion of the novel Lolita . I read it here, http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/05/31/0329200 I ...
.... It's also beefed up the OpenID system and allowed the "lj user" code to refer to users of multiple sites. An automatic-crossposting function is in development. It's very aware that its potentialuserbase is made up of people who are spread across multiple accounts. But I'm mostly moving because I've had issues with the management of LiveJournal that I haven't been able to fully reconcile for ...
... online music market. You provide your iTunessoftware for Windows and Mac only, and only allow your iTunes Music Store to be accessed via the iTunes software. This completely alienates Linux users from your potentialuserbase, and now we don’t need you. What gets me, is that I’m sure that it wouldn’t be too difficult to port QuickTime and iTunes from your BSD-based operating system to Linux... ...
... thought all of the complaints were from users using DSL and/or Comcast w/ the crummy speedboost something or other technology. Now I'm just thinking that the infrastructure is woefully inadequate to support the userbase. God damnit. Guess I'll fire off a polite-yet-bitchy complaint and wait for the inevitable soulless, "please check with your ISP / reboot your router / log out and log back in / ...
.... This in turn lead to masses of underage users flooding the site. Recent media attention makes this problem increase. Eventually, so many 14 year olds end up browsing the site that the original adult userbase has been overshadowed by the masses of underage people who have now turned the joke inside out, and the site has now literally become a place for 14 year olds to be retarded.\r\n

...to set external_stylesheet = false, they work. However, I'd rather not do this because it will definitely affect the performance of my server. The hardware and bandwidth is limited, and so is the userbase, but the volume of traffic the few users generate will be high, and I'm afraid turning off external_stylesheet for those layers will impact it fairly heavily. The crux of the issue is that the...
... is not perfect, in fact I have several complaints about it I will probably list later. However, the one golden glittering thing about awesometorrent sites with good quality content and a fantastic userbase is that it shows the world how broken the music industry is and will always be . Someone else already articulated (though with no amount of brevity) my thoughts on this subject right here:...
