I guess there are bugs still being worked out since the name change, because I am unable to edit my signature.

For the record, no, I don't. I certainly don't want to contribute to his profit here. I think his changes so far have been a step in the wrong direction, I think his communication with the membership has been horrendous, and I don't want him to see a profit under these circumstances. If the money hits him where it hurts, maybe he will actually give two hoots about what the members here are saying they want to see for this site.

How about giving him some time first?

 

[Lindon Tinuviel]

How much time, AV?

How much time, AV?

Looks like he took the helm on Oct 11[sup]th[/sup] --- is 90 days too long to ask?

 

[No Swansong]

Hmmm... so you will undoe everything Erwin did on 777?

No not everything he's actually getting rid of the only 777 positive (open report threads)

Given his first 45, I would say that yes, it is too long.

How much time does one need to let members know about the rationale behind drastic changes that are being made on an almost weekly basis to the rules, atmosphere, and vision of the site?

If there's enough time to make these kinds of changes, there's enough time to communicate them to the members.

If he cares about the site and turning a profit, he won't alienate the members who support it by asking for their input and then roundly dismissing it. No doubt that is why he seeks to turn a profit in ways that don't involve direct input from the membership. Hence the ads suddenly peppering even site supporter pages.

Wait til you get a load of the big talking ads that follow you down the page and yell at you to

BUY A FORD!​

Those go over really well at work.

Are you serious? I've been to sites with embedded YouTube ads that I have to block video-by-video so I don't lose the ability to visit YouTube itself -- but here at CF??

 

[Lindon Tinuviel]

Why not? It's the new trend. One recent example snuck in on even the paying Members might be:

http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/t445824

Be warned, all of MNphysicist's naughty words, as well as a couple of other naughty ones, will be used there.

Oh my virgin eyes. Can I issue infractions to that site?

 

[Lindon Tinuviel]

As long as it remains a secret.

 

[ravenscape]

Yes, just the control panel.

Also the main index page.

 

[BlackBerry]

Also the main index page.

Yup. They are showing up there for me also.

I'm using Firefox with Adblock Plus.

I don't see an ad anywhere on the site!

Yea!

If you have Firefox (heck, even if you don't), try these filters:
