Hey -Cel addict,

 I understand desperate times call for 
desperate measures, but you may be going in 
reverse. Maybe you are right; maybe the format 
of RS is not a good fit for you. Maybe Jason is 
right to close your site, because of it. 

All in all, only the two of you know everything.

But some where in-between the bad 
communications between the two of you 
began and it lead to...

Name calling...

(This is the point where the rest of the world 
found out about this.)

From our point of view:

 It all began with you calling the admin. 
(Jason) vulgar names on his own site. If 
someone called you "an ass" for whatever 
reason publicly on your site over some policy 
dispute that you two had privately...What would 
you do? What would you expect?  You should 
have handled it privately; I think and not post  
flaming remarks, IMO.

Take a little responsibility here for your own 
verbal abuse. I am not flaming you. I can really 
understand your frustration with wanting to 
sale. We all can.

Sometimes when communication breaks 
down people act in haste and blame 
someone.  Try to work it out.

Name calling like Spinizuey pointed out 
creates a lot of unnecessary bad talk. I am 
sorry that things did not work out for you from a 
selling point of view the way that you wanted. 

"Mixing apples and oranges":

And about promoting the site. I think that it is a 
good thing, and if you can point to some 
evidence of income from other sources let me 
know. I`d be the first to jump off.  So, the point 
that you have with Jason and RS, has nothing 
to do with me reminding people that it would 
be a good thing to donate whatever to keep 
this ever-expanding site afloat. Sometimes 
there are such things as good causes beyond 
ones own directly selfish motivations.

later,

 E
