    Here's the deal, Paul...

    This ain't a new problem. I see that Pocket Guy there says 5 years. I've been habituating this place for goin' on 15 years--it ain't changed hardly an iota. The "site" has developed an approach toward monetization of the peeps. They do NOT address any bugs... unless those bugs affect their P&L sheet. As long as they can maintain--or create "new"--hooks to get those add-on bucks, what do they care?

    Their bottom line is not directly affected by those Gold-Bucks… they rely on the tricks they've built into the system... like chargin' the non-Gold peeps to allow other standard peeps to contact them--all the while, the other standards are also charged to contact anyone. Sooner or later, most end up paying for Gold--AND THAT drives the bottom line.

    Now... if you are a Gold, other than your own ability to contact others, what good is it to you that a standard member can't contact you? Are you EVER really gonna know (in general) that non-paying standards can't really contact you...if you never hear from them standards?

    And now-- on to a trick I picked up back about 15 years ago... but it's not really gonna make sense for anyone who does NOT take their postings seriously--

    I write ALL my posts offline (I use Wordpad, in Windows, as an editor 'cause it's simple and unobtrusive and I can do it in RTF) and then paste them into the AFFland posting editor. I keep the Wordpad original and make any changes I feel so inclined... to that one... and recopy into the posting editor. After I've completed the posting, and I'm satisfied with it, I copy from the AFFland editor and make a backup AS A SEPARATE FILE. Same filename--different extension (usually straight ASCII.)

    That way, when these suckers chop the crap outta your postings, you can simply "Update" your online post with a paste from your AFFland backup ASCII copy. It has all the text coding used by the AFFland system, and you don't have to screw with a rewrite. You may have to "Update" a dozen times--but their system will accept updates way faster than reposts... as the AlGore-rithms only check for NEW shit. ( BTW: ain't Al the one who invented this crap? )

    Of course, this does not solve AFFland's internal issues. It just reduces the amount of hatred one might build up for this stinking place... which will surely rub off an your posts--inevitably. Believe it! I know... after 15years in this place. The reason I keep using it is that they are relatively neutral politically. I ain't too fond of being butt-fucked by Commies!

    Also--it only helps so long as they don't make changes in the underlaying platform (which happens at times.) In that case, you WILL have to rewrite your backups.

    As to system glitches--well... good luck. This is a rather complicated platform, in spite of HTML. And the longer they go between system upgrades, the worse it will get. I wrote a simple piece of software, back in the days of FOXBASE-DOS, which started out as a mere 2,000 lines of code. By the time I debugged and finalized it for distribution, it ended up nearly 6,000 lines. Can you imagine how difficult it would be to find an error in 2 or 3 million lines... with likely very haphazard documentation?

    Hope this helps lower stress levels for some of the peeps.

Yep... All good tips and a great over view.
I use the same system you do. Dual copies, and then a formatted copy... I just don't always have the time to delete the text of the bad post... for one word.
So I correct that ONE word.... go back and look, only to find its three words... Then five... blah blah blah.
Yeah... at that point I put that good one back in there.
It's usually not something that I really give a shit about, unless I've had a few... lol
Yep.. then it gets under my skin a little more.
I guess I should cut back on the scotch....
A Fuck it.... I'll just put in a bit of ice... to water it down a bit... 💦🤔
Thanks for the tips. I hope somebody is paying attention... Have a good one! 👍

Paul...

Is that single malt/grain? I'm not much for Scotch. Bein' Italian, I lean toward tequila.

Wait a minute--Italians ain't Mexicans!

Hey.. cheers. Tequila? Sure... it's been a while... but I'm game... 🏈⚽🍸🍷🍻

Perhaps if you were to add something a bit stronger to the "pineapple slushy", (that sounds delicious by the way), it my help Paul?! Have seen the dots in between your words, yep, you have it bad! Haven't really noticed a prob when I do a Blog, although awhile ago there were words with letters that had disappeared, but don't think it's still happening?!

Yeah... There is a fix for this. Just copy and paste the good version (that I have on Word), into the one that messes up. I end up changing word by word...
It's all good. My rant is over.
Those slushies are really good! 👍🍍 There's always one waiting here for you. 😘

Ya know.... it doesn't affect everyone.. You're lucky.
Although I'll say that it also affects my pictures.
Well.... I guess you're lucky. 🍀

In honour of my most recent blog post - 'Drink While Blogging... An Apology... and Other Excuses Included...'

... I've decided to forgive you.
Actually... since I was the one being rude, I decided that it's pointless to block you.
Yep... You're off my list and I can only imagine how relieved you are. 😂omg...

I'm just kidding around. Seriously... This is just a note to say... I was inappropriate with my comments to you.
No excuses. I was way off base.
