Sorry if this has been posted already, as I didn't want to bother sifting through all the crybaby temper-tantrums thrown on this thread because they feel they feel as if their human (furry?) rights have been trampled upon or some other unforgivable act of injustice inflicted upon them...
NOTE: Before reading the following, understand that this does not apply to all, nor does all of it necessarily apply to one person. Part or all of this may apply to you, and for some, this doesn't apply at all...cliff's version below for those who have a shorter attention span than a 4-year old.
Seriously, you rotten brats need to outgrow the "I want it here, I want it now" phase. You need to sit back, take a deep breath, and contemplate the fact that the "powers that be" at FA are doing what they can to resurrect the flawed and fallen site. Trust me, I think I can confidently assure you that they want FA to be up and running as much as you do- I'm not a betting man, but I'd say it'd be quite safe to assume they want it to be operational MORESO than you do, simply to quell all the incessant whining and moaning.
Yes, I understand that many of you donated money to bring FA back. YES, IT'S COMING BACK, WORRY NOT. Be extremely grateful that you have folks like Dragoneer, Yak, and others (sorry, I don't know all involved) care enough to bring FA back at all. These guys are busting their asses, and not only that, but they're taking the TIME and EFFORT to make sure EVERYTHING is done CORRECTLY. So many of you bitch and complain about FA being so flawed and such...well, would you rather have them throw FA back online to satisfy your impatient, thoughtless urges, only to hear you cry about FA having problems, even after being down for over a month? I don't know about you, but I could wait indefinitely, so long as those @ FA were making an active effort (which they are) and showing us they are doing so.
Most of you don't even know what the meaning of hard work is, living off parents or working a low-income job, simply because you expect little of yourself and far too much of others. You demand far more than what you put in- simple as that. You don't like what they're doing with FA? Fine, go start your own site up then. Maybe then you'll understand what all is involved when you're running your own FREE site, paid for OUT OF POCKET, and you've got 100k+ members (according to statistics) to please.
If you're not willing to do that, then please, for the sake of the rest of the community...SHUT UP. Why not do something productive for the fandom...some art, music, or fiction perhaps? Can't? Why not try and learn to then? Say you're good enough already? Well hell, then why don't you make some tutorials for the rest of us, or maybe start your own paysite?
Too long for your attention span? I'll give you the cliffs:
Quit your crybaby whining. They're doing all they can to bring FA back up. You don't like it? Do something productive for the fandom. Stop demanding so much of the world, and start demanding more from yourself.
