You know, I’ve about had my fill. I’m so tired of being called a liar by a forum who shall remain nameless. I just found out that back in September I was reported to my host for the claim that JamiGertz.org was the first, and only, fansite of it’s kind – which is true! I was reported because the members of this forum are arguing a point – the point being that they consider their forum to be a fansite, and that makes no sense what so ever, because while it’s a nice forum, a forum is not the same as a fansite.
I’ve tried to be a good webmiss, and have all the content I can get a hold of. This website has cost me dearly to run, and some of my wonderful, fabulous visitors have even reached into their pockets to help out with the cost of hosting ( before switching to Fan-sites ), DVDs, images, etc., just to try and make this a one-stop shop that everyone can enjoy. I do my damndest to be open to others using my images, so long as they aren’t hot linked ( to save bandwidth for my host ), my videos, and so on, and basically all I get for it is called out. If it weren’t for my amazing regular visitors, I would have thrown in the towel when this all started, because to be honest, it makes me feel like crap, especially when I’ve worked so hard and given up what little free time and spare cash I can afford to.
What irks me is that the forum admin could have come and talked to me, and I would have been all too happy to compromise so that everyone was happy – but instead I was reported.
I won’t be shutting the site down, or even stopping updates which should become more regular in 2008, but I will be a lot more weary of other Jami sites, forums, etc., because I really don’t think I can deal with this again. It’s just one thing after another, and I know you’ve all noticed it, too. I don’t mind people calling the site names, or even calling me a liar ( though I don’t really love it ), but contacting my host over semantics? Really?
At any rate, I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season, you are the best visitors anyone could ask for! And thanks to Troy for the DVD heads up!
