As long as there has been a Mudcat, there have been "issues" which Max, Joe, et al ALWAYS claim can only be fixed by them, and no one else can help. Except by sending money. And the problems never get fixed.

And Clinton, Max certainly knows how to block an ISP--he has blocked mine for saying what I just said in the above paragraph. You see, that is the only TRUE sin you can commit here--pointing out the fact that Max collects the money, does whatever the fuck he wants with it, never so much as acknowledges, much less thanks the people who donate, and then never resolves the reliability problems that have plagued this site for years.

And before all of you claim "how would you know guest, you probably never donated a dime"--I have. That is how I know whereof I speak.

Clinton is right. Money donated here is as good as flushing it, but it makes a few people here feel better about themselves, so they do it. What is needed is a new site owner who is dedicated to bringing the site up to snuff. Max is not that person.
