Slashdot IRC Forum Today

Hemos and I are going to try to answer questions today at 3:00 PM EST, on irc.slashnet.org in #forum. Specifically we're going to try to keep the questions on the subject of subscriptions. There are a lot of misunderstandings about a few things, and we wanna clear them up. We'll post a log in this story after the forum is done. Any questions can be /msged to Questions the bot and forum discussion can be had in #forum.d.

Seriously, was this remark written by a troll? Someone who sits at -1 and crapflood because they don't have anything better to do?

Now they're whining because in addition to having to avoid ads (or pay to not get them) while posting "The Turd Report," they're also NOT going to have any new features to belittle, defame, and destroy either?

Aww, poor trolls. :~( *Sniff*

Get real. I've been "using" (reading, learning, commenting, moderating) for four years, and if Rob's boss is mandating bigger banner ads to keep the site afloat, I'll just let my eyeballs jump over them the same way they do on other sites. If they get too annoying on some areas, I'll pay a few bucks to get rid of some for a while.

These people don't owe us anything; we aren't a "community," we a bunch of freaking bandwidth leeches who sit here and suck down knowledge and commentary all day.

Cope!!
