I have no problems with the mods and how they do things. They have given me applause, as well as warnings and penalties when I've been a bad boy. The mods giveth and taketh away.

It's not our site. It's the owners' site. It's their front page - not our front page. This isn't a newspaper. It is a private website opened up to the public. We, as members, aren't owed a decision on anything, except whether to post here or not. Many times the site owners ask our opinions on things, but they certainly don't have to. We aren't customers who have paid for a service and deserve certain rights because of it.
And I DO decide what's important to me. I only read the threads I want to - and those threads aren't always on the front page.

You do understand that they make a lot of money from selling us, when will people understand ATS is not something given to us by god, its a firm and as with all firms they will be here for as long as they can make enough money by selling us

Nope. I want it addressed.
I'm not throwing the mod who told me under the bus, but I don't lie. I also don't want to have this nonsense keep going.

And you get to use all the fun they offer us for free...running this site is not cheap or free, so somebody has to pay for it since the members don't.
And if they make so much money why ask for donations to help when times were tough...that pretty much shows they aren't making a big profit for as you say " they are selling us to make money".

Read how they ask for money, understand the words they use.
What they are say is infact the same as if you walked into a shop and the shop owner asks you to pay double for everything so he can make more money.
Not only do they sell us but they can sell every thing we write or picture we post, on top of that we do all the work

Don't post here then, start your own forum which conforms to whatever you're whining about.
Send me a link lol
Not whining just telling how it is, but yours is a strange reaction to been told you are been used everyway the owners can think of to make money from you
