We're in a loop...
BT @ hacker's den = not appropriate;
but, we don't want moderators, and big brother running the show if BT is transferred to a "real" organization and wouldn't tolerate the crap that occurs on a daily basis; run perhaps like "healthboards" where I have never seen so much moderation and banning...
BT took donations and yet, servers crash = not believable, not good;
and yet, we want small town management that allows us to bicker, battle, denigrate other posters (as well as receive kindness, support, and offer same to others)...*
BT associates with virtual reality world =
huh? (although it is noted that some of this virtual reality world allows those with disabilities another type of outlet, especially if they would rather distract themselves from their medical problems, than roll in their "issues")
Again, why hang around with all these negatives? I am just not following the logic.
Anyone who donates anything, to anyone via internet is doing it of free will. Donating does not grant "shares" in the direction of a vehicle, even though it may be desired.
Donating to a person, especially that is no longer associated with the hospital/organization that once gave it "validity" [in that person's eye] takes us back to: huh?
See? a loop. We ask and answer our own questions and concerns all at once.
It has been known for some time that this is a lone ranger organization. If we give, we give with the hopes that it will help. If it hasn't amounted to what we had hoped...time to move on.
If JLester isn't doing what you think is appropriate, whether it be in the location of its servers, or by the fact that he is no longer associated with MGH, then, my goodness, find another board that offers what you need.
*I have a feeling that this issue is more an inability to devote the time required to support/maintain BT, than it is a mere long, drawn out software/hardware crash (as I was sure MACs are supposed to be bitchin OSs w/hardware that never crashes).
The wonderful thing about this thread is that, by now, I am sure that this JLester "hack" will have been made fully aware of all the "issues" surrounding BT. Let's see if he responds.
