Gone are the days of real webmasters. These new people don't know jack shit other than all they have to do is sign up for a program and milk it for all it's worth. Free content, free hosting, design this for me, upload that....Hell, now days there are sponsors who will even submit FHG's with your linking code.
It's become pretty fucking sad.
There's a lot that I still don't know about this business, especially when it comes to programming and technical shit like that....But at least I try to learn which is more than can be said about most of the newbies.

Amen to that. However there are new people entering the industry that are willing to learn and work. They have been through the free stuff and realize there is no money there.
Could I start today from nothing and build again. Yes I am doing just that.
But it requires work. Unlike a few years ago when the competition level wasn't there.
If you are coming in today and just think you can rape the sponsors for all the free stuff and do nothing and succeed? well you might want to think again.
Also if you have no money, no skills, and you just want a free ride.... McDonalds is hiring.
