ORIGINAL: Musicmystery Of course it is. You went off about "rubbish" about a simple observation you didn't like. Then after warning people would leave, you backed way off when offered the door. If you don't care about posting gifs, then what's your problem? Hissing and spitting and twisting and turning. For a page now, because you didn't like the simple observation that quote:
Maybe if you paid to be here the distinction would be clearer for you. paying for an ad indeed has different rules than posting in the forums. And different effects among paid and non-paid sites. Sorry you don't like it. It happens. you seriously need to learn how to read, and the definition of the words you use. quote:
that fact is that without a member base to aim at cm wouldn't get paid advertising. with paid membership the site would lose alot of it's members. it's happened on other sites that were free, are now paid, and now almost dead. is exactly what i wrote. there is no threat in there because it is observation, and nothing more. i personally never made a threat to leave, thus can not be backing away from any door. the point was that if gifs slow down the site fair enough, but it is only cared about on this side. the consideration for slowness, or the amount of download it eats of the members is not bothered about because it's paid for. hence, if the gifs were paid for on this side too then there wouldn't be a problem. the statement about mod tools was only added later. now i have no problem at all the the site requesting we not do something, but to use a reason that doesn't actually apply will be commented on. the mod tools/machinery being slow is totally different to what was originally stated as the reason for the request. again, just because something is free doesn't mean you can't comment on it. i run three sites that are totally free for users/members to use. at no point would i tell them not to do something and not expect them to make comments if i'm using a reason that doesn't actually affect them. i welcome their input as it help me run things better for them. your original comment appears to be aimed at me. if not then try using FR, that way it saves confusion. if it was aimed at me then i'll tell you this; i'll answer to it as i see fit. if you don't want people to comment on your opinions aimed at them then consider whether you should post it. needles
