Oh, boo-hoo. Gimme, gimme, gimme.
This is what about $1,000 per DAY gets you; a 1995 BBS running on Windows ME. How many more millions needed before posts can be edited?
I'm very sorry (again), but our recurring response time nightmare is back (again).
The good news, though, is John has finally checked in. He's been out of town a lot in the last couple weeks dealing with some urgent family issues regarding his other half's adopted child. Praying that works out soon. He also says his phone needs to be replaced and has not had time to get it done.
The bad news is, he has not been able to resolve our server issue yet. He suspects it's some kind of intermittent error in our network switch or router and wants to replace our front-end hardware but has not had time to purchase the new equipment or get back up to San Joose to install it. Hopefully, soon.

I REALLY resent how this family used "urgent family matters" this time, mentioned an "adopted child," then topped it all with the usual invocation of "prayer" as the cherry on the cake with which to back off legit complaints AND calculated to tug on the heart strings. These multi-level shields against angry PAYING customers is bad enough; guilt them further into accepting shoddy lies is dishonorable.
Freepers by and large have always been a loyal, compassionate bunch. But how far is too far? IS there that point for Freepers? At what point is this repeated con-job called out??
Kind and generous Freepers have accepted lie after lie with respect to a suppose "new server" was promised repeatedly but never delivered. If always something. AT FREEPATHON TIME. Don't like it the scam and financial/emotional blackmail? Leave! (yes, that's the actual default response, you "Freeploader". BUT WHAT OF THOSE WHO DO PAY REGULARLY?? Does THIS encore performance insult *their* intelligence and disrespect THEM? Isn't loyalty a two-way street?)
The timing at Freepathon Time is BEYOND suspicious; It's CALCULATED. That itself is wrong on so many levels. Such arrogance and years of lies keep on getting rewarded. Those who call it out for what it's been are predictably censored, ostracized, ridiculed, and disrespected for noticing the obvious occurs LIKE CLOCKWORK.
(Here a drone captures John @work, examining the Chinese $.29 cent doohickey before asking for additional prayers AND indirectly soliciting extra $$$$ in order to "once and for all git 'er goin'!")
This nonsense is waaay past the usual hamster wheel jokes, sabotage, and the same conspiracies The Great Oz and Bush Groupies used to ridicule, but now find most convenient.
What's OZ's excuse this time?? Flying monkeys? The DU? Mika and Joe?
Remember when 50-100 posts used to be pulled up? Now it's down to 20. And STILL had been running sloooow. What next? 10 posts? Then 5? "Shut up, troll!"

I was wondering who'd be the first to comment on that heartstrings-yanking.
It's been comical for several years now, but the long-con grift rolls on anyway.
