Exactly. Less noobish whining, more actually talking about stuff. I can handle having my toes stepped on or being insulted by someone who doesn't know what they're talking about- if someone is going to be an ass on the TFP, they're going to be ignored pretty quickly.
And OMG, I think people need to step down about how "important their donations are." This isn't a stock option- it's a lesiure site. I've donated in the past, and I really don't care what Hal does with the TFP (aside from keeping it on the internets, of course
) I don't feel a sense of "entitlement" as to the runnings of the place because I sent money- I sent money because, at the time, I had it and I realized that if TFP went offline I'd be sad. If you wanna keep TFP online, send money. If you don't care, don't send money. Vote with your wallet.
