    1. Most of the statement is true.
    2. It was in the vbulletin messageboard - it's not intended for us or the Fchat moderators to read.
    3. He has smiley's all over it.

    Give him some slack, this is a great community.

    Hey guys, read the second paragraph. Doesn't Rob say "This one was done for an April Fools joke"? He was having some fun. Is he not allowed to do that? I mean, sometimes don't we all do things that might make him feel like he is babysitting kids? Think about it.................

    I thought I remembered this guy. After going through his posts now I'm sure of it, and it seems as though he was either banned, suspended or just took a really long F-chat vacation. Regardless, he's just a troublemaker and that's it.

    He might also be Mako/okam2000/whoever.

    It's amazing to me how people keep coming back to this board just to stir up as much crap as they can. Go away if you don't like it here, and stay away.

    Drama is good! Increases volume, gets more sponsors, and gets more users begging me to be moderators. win - win - win. :)

    I can tell most of you don't need an explanation.

    1) I wrote that in context of standing up for our moderators. Another user said "wow... copying 32.000 posts... you have moderators without personal life They should get one". There was a tone that I shouldn't let moderators have fun like this. My response was simply they work hard for nothing, of course they should be able to have some fun.

    2) It is a fact sponsors and subscribed users are the only ones that financially support this community. It is a fact that moderators don't get any type of compensation except for free Rossa benefits.

    3) It is a fact we have over 30 moderators and when I put a request out to get more moderators, I get dozens of requests begging me for each available spot.

    It is the nature of the community. Some users just really want to be moderators and do it for free, they enjoy it. Last year I made the whopping $1.25 an hour profit for my time. Does anyone want to take on the responsibility I have for $1.25 an hour? Do you want to deal with $500k lawsuits? Do you want to deal with all the trolls? Do you want to deal with all the spammers? Do you want to deal with the 150 emails and PM's I get a day? Do you want to deal with the host, hardware, and software? Do you want to deal with the sponsors? I never complain a second, because this is what I enjoy, I suspect I'm a rare strange bird to enjoy it like I do.

    While we're at it, I talked about Rossa Subscribers too, in the same sarcastic tone I made the public comment I don't know why anyone would go Rossa over Silver. If you aren't smart enough to understand what I'm saying with either of these comments knowing my humor personality and candidness, then do me a favor and just go away. Yet more headaches and "babysitting" going on. Who wants the job?

    This is muckraking at its worst.

    Rob doesn't need to explain anything to anybody.

    Who ever "Never" is (I assume Never as in "I'll never get a POS Ferrari"), crawl back in your hole.

    I subscribed rossa because I want to support the site, I don't expect anything in return (Maybe be able to post pictures larger than 640x480 ;) )
