I think we need heavy-handed fundraisers that begin regularly every 90 days and last about 75 days.

That seems like a good scam, doesn't it? Start small; just ask for "Italian" chain-restaurant gift cards and see how it goes. We also need new software subroutines to schedule system outages just prior to the beginning of each cycle to emphasize the need.

If it doesn't work, we can start banning users who don't donate enough or look at somebody crosswise, because that is probably good for morale and site growth.

And somewhere along the line, we need a motorhome.

I just read this over there and it was cleverly written and funny as hell.

The entire thread is pretty interesting and all of them want the show to go on.

sysadmin is bending over backwards to accommodate everyone - he'll break his back if he isn't careful.

Yeah, Hank does some pretty good writing. And yeah, if sysadmin guy isn't careful he will get rolled over there.

sysadmin did mention he deleted some thread titled I Love the Police, or some such, because it was devolving into a flame fest.

Not sure, but I think there is a "thread lock" feature which he should have used instead, IMO.

I saw that thread--I believe the title was I Support the Police. The caveat being when the police were doing what they should be doing and not acting like gangsters and thugs.
