    A forum starts charging
    Just got this in email this morning from another forum:

    "The staff and owners of <forum name removed> are constantly working on ways to make our forum community even stronger. Improving image critiques and forum function are only a small part of our efforts to make <forum name removed> the best educational nature photography website on the Internet.

    I raised them a virtual two fingers, told them why I was leaving.
    I hope they don't email me again with any more "improvements".

    It's been pointed out that those links actually work - oops. :blush2:
    That's the programmer in me, anything unknown is X or if too long to bother typing xxx.
    I didn't even THINK of xxx being porn - how innocent am I?

    ROTFLMAO!

    I actually think that raising two virtual fingers may have been very restrained. As my mom once did as she watched a politician that shall not be named (to respect the no politics on this forum) on tv "Both middle fingers and toes, motherf---er"

    Oh boy do I wish I'd checked those <forum name removed> links when I typed in xxx.
    I'm minded to delete all this and go hide :mad2:
