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.

Midway through the 90-day 'fundraising' grift, FR has crashed today. To me, this is a bit early to schedule the outage...

I was expelled from FR 18 years ago for saying Georgie Bush was less of a threat to the nation when he was a drunk and incapacitated by whiskey. I still believe it.

Having said that, FR is a good source of news and commentary and I still go there for that reason. As time has gone on, I notice the efficiency and function of the site has been decreased to put pressure on for donations. This has chased people away. The more they have flexed their muscle, the more donations they have lost. The previous quarter barely got enough income to fill in goals before the beginning af this quarter's start. At present rates, the present quarter won't meet its financial goal.

I hope it doesn't. I really want to see what happens. I enjoy FR. It's the best place to go to read news and commentary without ads.

I gave a couple of times till someone explained the math and I asked an IT guy about the supposed costs. Clearly there are a few people living off of the donations. That's fine by me if you can get them.

The crashes during 'thons is funny as hell, though. As soon as they come back all the usual shills come out and try to embarrass posters for money.

Yes. It's SOP over there. So many good sites for free, like Conservative Treehouse and Breitbart.
