Thank god.

Great news indeed. Filefront is now back to its founders, which is an even better deal than when it was a part of Ziff Davis Media.

Perhaps I'm just out of the loop... Ziff Davis Media is good/bad/different/strange/humorless?

I have no idea, from the name I get the impression that it is some big corp that can't see reality from the money glow in their eyes.

Sort of. They are a publishing firm. Gaming media publications such as PC Magazine, PC Gamer, etc, constitute one of their major assets. They used to do very well. However, it seems that they expanded and bought far too many assets so they need to downsize. Currently their net worth (assets, etc, combined) was ranked around US$187 million- however this is declining.

ACK! God damn Screamer videos! The "Bison in G Major", one of the videos linked to the one Drake posted, was a freakin' Screamer. Made me jump a little, gave me a heart palpitation...

CURSE YE, JACKASS SCREAMER-POSTERS!

Only the spam forum and FHOT. The rest is almost alright. The spam forum is just mindless spam, FHOT is a minefield of random discussion.

I seriously dont know how people have that much free time. It don't make sense..Now all we have to hope for is that Filefront manages to keep its own operations running straight and away from exposure to trouble so the probability of a problem like this happening will be reduced.

Is it really necessary to post a quote a post with a quote of a quote of a post with a large embedded video? Just an example of why I urge people to trim a quote when appropriate... nothing against you personally, gorgutz.

Bjossi · **Posted:** Sat Apr 04, 2009 7:05 am

I changed the video box to an url in both posts.
Drake, you should know better than to quote big pictures or embedded videos. It is unnecessary and annoying.

Gorgutz · **Posted:** Sat Apr 04, 2009 5:42 pm

Sorry, I'll keep that in mind next time.

aw, but i tend to use images and videos to get points across.

i do it in other forums and they don't seem to mind.
howzabout the use of Small screen videos and thumbnail images?

Bjossi · **Posted:** Sun Apr 05, 2009 7:49 am

Actually, I should have said that to Gorgutz, since he was the one who quoted your post that contained the video.
Sorry about that confusion!

Posting images is fine, by the way (as long as they don't stretch the page on x-axis), quoting them is not a nice thing to do, however.
