I like how people get rated down for complaining about downtime.

Seriously though, what happened? Was it server or software? I want to know who to criticize.

I think it's less the complaint and more the arrogant impression that the admins owe them an explanation. I'd have to agree with the ones doing the rating too, tbh. Smiley: disappointed

I think it's less that and more that most of the people on the site don't have the same sense of humor as people from the OOT. Also they probably didn't reckognize the meme.

Of course. I mean, why would a business owe anything to its loyal customers?

You missed the part where the site itself is a free operation to its userbase, you're only paying for added services; and last time I looked, due diligence from the staff wasn't on that list.

Regardless of whether or not it's 'free', I'm still a customer by visiting this site. I produce revenue for this business. As such, I can expect a certain amount of service.

It's really easy to use the 'free' excuse, but visitors to free sites generate revenue. Without these visitors, there would be no revenue and no site.
