Come on empty yer pockets, someone’s coining it. This site looks like an fing billboard. What goes to who and how much? How else do you explain the desperate attempts to maintain hegemony over the site’s content?
I reckon it’s that Big Fluffy Matthew, he’s always jabbering on about people being ‘civil’. Conducive to business , oiling the wheels of commerce an’ all that

If you want to discuss wording on a website, that is not forumosa, email the owner of the said website. flashcards@truant.net
FWIW, if you think I’m making money out of flashcards, think again. I’ll be lucky to break even but figured it’s worth doing if people benefit from the efforts, and I’m at least not out of pocket.
Hearing comments like yours makes me seriously wonder why I bother.

I understand if you’d rather not discuss those quotes on a public forum.[/quote]
Well it depends, if you’d approached it liked a decent person, then sure. I don’t have anything to hide, even if you are OT in your own thread.
The point is, you actually don’t give a shit. You are just grasping for whatever you can get. Who’s next?
Do you have to work hard at your bitterness and ignorance - or does it just come naturally?

I’m sorry but I disagree: the first option was pointless, leaving the question redundant.
[quote=“Goose Egg”]It’s for sponsors who don’t want to put a banner on the website[/quote]Why not eh? The plot thickens. Who are you lot, the R.O.C. chapter of the Freemasons?
I must be a shareholder then cos you’re not allowed to call me an arsehole.
I do, a bit, and those quotes are typical of the sort of vague gibberish language ‘schools’ pump out on a regular basis on this rogue island. [quote]These flashcards have been developed by drawing on the most effective learning methods[/quote] With what, crayons?

I’ve always thought it a pitty that Forumosa didn’t make more money for the owners. If you consider the service that it offers, they should, in fairness, be rolling in it.
If you’d been reading this site for a few years now, you’ll have come across discussions about the high costs involved in operating this high volume site - costs that have grown substantially over the years. Yes, those who run the site have to advertise, sell merchandise, and solicit donations and donate unpaid work-time to keep it running. It would surprise me if they are making any profit off it.
