Title: Who had May 15th in the "FR crashes" pool?

Midway through the 90-day 'fundraising' grift, FR has crashed today. To me, this is a bit early to schedule the outage, as it may not instill sufficient panic amongst the acolytes. But that $88k just has to be scooped up this quarter before the next round starts July 1.

And after all these years, all those millions of dollars, you STILL can't edit a typo or mistaken statement in a posting there.

Way to go, Hopalong.

Keep in mind that if you raise the blood pressure of the elderly cat ladies too much, you lose more of them to heart attacks than you can make up via increased donations in the Griftathon.

It's a fine art to tease the big bucks out of senile people in very delicate health. You have to scare the crap out of them without putting them into hospice care (where their checkbook may not be nearby).

JR should do a blanket amnesty and de-zot every past ban. Then demand a donation to stay on. That would be the ultimate scam as after the check clears he can zot them again. :-)

Wow I should be in marketing. :-)

Funny you should mention that - my FR account was unilaterally unbanned a few weeks ago (no, I didn't request it) after being terminated in 2006 for asking too many times why the GOPussies never followed through on promises they've made for decades, once they had political power in DC.

I don't plan to do anything with it, but I'm wondering if I'm one of many evildoers brought back into favor and the unbanning is a sign of desperation and an attempt to scoop up more loot. Hard for the suckers to donate if the site's down, though - almost two days now.

Also hard to believe they can't bring it back online almost immediately with failover systems and realtime backups - the money pouring in is more than sufficient to afford that.

It'll be interesting to see if, supposedly, Johnny still has to "drive to San Jose" to fix it. What's all that money buying anyway, besides breadsticks? They don't have server farms in Bootlick or wherever they live?

Last I knew, they had rackspace rented and had two MySQL database servers (one active, the other as continuous backup). And they had two main servers running their Perl server code that interacted with the users and the database.

You could easily run the same thing and scale up to a much larger userbase just running on Amazon rented servers. And you'd have a lot more backup solutions, more straightforward finance, lower costs overall.

But then, that would puncture the whole Griftathon racket if the cat ladies of FR ever figured any of that out. It's more fun for them to race to FR's rescue every quarter, a cult solidarity thing.
