Yes, my last update did quote suck unquote. Yes, I have been known to delete such quote sucky unquote updates in the past. However, I realize there are far worse things on this site. Seeing as how I am allowing them to continue their existence here, I might as well let one extra post survive as well.

Wedge55 Is Pissed
This Episode’s Update’s Topic: dork.com
I thought it was strange that my web traffic had decreased dramatically since June. Whereas before 30-40 hits a day was the norm, I was down to 5-15. One day, while doing to dork.com/dorkclub in order to check said site’s Extreme Tracker, I was met with an unpleasant surprise. The site was down, and in fact had been down since June 15. As every Internet user who runs this site knows, dork.com is hard up for cash. In order to generate some much needed funds they began charging new members a one time $5 start up fee in order to get a dork.com account, e-mail address, and webspace. Luckily, those of us who were long time members did not have to pay a cent - until now. Not only did dork.com want all existing members to pay a $5 fee by June 15 in order to keep their account, but any account holders who failed to make the deadline had to instead shell out a healthy $10. Personally, I think paying even $5 for what they offer is a huge rip-ff. If I wanted five whole megabites of web space, a piss-poor e-mail address, and access to worthless forums, I would sign up at Geocities for free. So, now I have lost dork.com/dorkclub, which housed the Super Sentence and thus sent a steady stream of child porn enthusiasts my way. What really pisses me off, is that the people who run dork.com, the extremely talentless band “The Dorks,” completely destroyed the URL I had been using for nearly three years despite the fact that I was one of the very first people to create an account at dork.com and was the only person who came to their first dork.com chat. I chatted with all four of them and after showing them my old AOL hosted site, was personally asked to move my site to dork.com. At least I can have some peace of mind knowing that where dork.com once had over 1000 hosted sites, it now has 302. Hopefully they will go belly up soon enough so I can snatch up their domain name.
