We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: I am more of a cynic than you Teller, I don't believe in 'power corrupts'... Author: James M [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Thu, January 24, 2008 4:05:11 In reply to: Teller 's message, "Re: I guess I'm kind of a cynic" on Thu, January 24, 2008 3:37:34 ... I believe power attracts corrupt people. We often see people who attain power and seemingly turn corrupt but they were already corrupt, they just hid it well. If they could not hide it well they would have never been able to take that position of power. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
