I cant believe you have the nerve to say "They didnt fuck over anyone".

For the last time, they weren't ARS sites to shut down, they severed their relationship with GIM and GIM regained control of marketing for their sites. Companies have to make decisions to stay profitable and secure long term stability. ARS had to make changes in order to survive, yet you feel they should have just continued on their current path soley for the sake of not upsetting webmasters who didn't want to change out their links? Your narrowminded view of business suggests that programs should just continue on their merry way do whatever is absolutely best for their webmasters completely disregarding any obligaton to remain profitable. ARS old model had become very unprofitable and changes needed to occur in order to survive. They gave plenty of warning of the upcoming changes and their webmasters had plenty of time to swap out their links. So tell me again how they fucked over all their webmasters? |
