more hostage tactics from the mods this morning. how do you guys feel about it? who wants to bet that we start getting more "reminders" to click on ads and to upgrade our subscriptions to platinum-premium?

99% of the posts belong to 1% of the posters. I dont think I need to make a chart for you to know that this is a problem.

Certain mods think there should be Universal Premium for all members.

did the mods still get paid during the shutdown? i think saul should get paid since he was working but like rick daris can barely use an emoticon so i doubt he helped fix it.
I think what my friend Mitch is trying to say is that true love is blind.

some of these mods are more 'tator than 'tater, if you catch my drift.

hey, how would you like to have your own username, one that you picked for yourself? are you getting that with the current mods?

oh man, bubs, idk. have you ever seen the movie shawshank redemption? id be like brooks. i wanna be able to pick out my own username and possibly even password but i think the incarceration has changed me. what would i even pick as username? probably like poonhound69 (if thats not already taken) but pretty much i dont think its a good idea. i need the mods to pick for me. i dont wanna end up like brooks.

Pffffft. I wonder if they still feel that way since the outage? I wouldn't be surprised to see some small rate hikes to make up for all of the lost ad revenue from today.

Sensationalists are always blowing this way out of proportion. 1% of posters actually only have 53% of the posts. AKA a controlling majority.
:adios:

I guess that's correct if you ignore the fifth column in our midst, i.e. the sock cult.

76 percent of goEMAW.com is against the shutdown, but the radical mods keep up this charade.

Also, I would like the pm function to be deemed essential, and remain available during the next shutdown.

The mods only appear great because we are on our knees: let us rise.
