And the reality is, this is a free service, the only money Forumer gets is the ad money from Google, that is what keeps the servers running. If you don't like this free service you can feel free to go to another free service, or if you want go to a paying one. But the bottom line is this: Forumer is free, you are paying absolutly nothing to use their servers, so don't complain.
Romanus, this is a polite answer, don't click the ban/delete button.

1) This is not a way you talk to clients, either free or paid. Clients are clients. Forumer is what it is because of it's users.
2) It's not just the ONLY MONEY, he is earning thousands of dollars each month (profit, not turnover) with those ads.
3) As for the job thing, that's the only thing I thing I agree with. A member atsw said that he can not be online for all the day, so his forum proved useless for him that day. The same way Mr. atsw, you can't expect Limez to stay online for 24 hours. If there is server downtime, it is not as easy to fix as clicking the New Thread button, the task is very tedious. Fixing one error can give birth to 10 other errors, so it has to be a planned way.

Hope both the sides understand what I mean.
