Um, look around, we gained 100 members today and most of them are animal ppl, how did we gain so many? Because we cross posted these bulletins onto myboomer and facebook, look on the top of my posts, I am advertising FRIENDBURST, I also DONATE at least 10 bucks a month here and will recruit more to donate. Revenue my friend, revenue.I am working for friendburst, are you? NO, you are throwing a tantrum instead, sorry it’s not all about you, I am working, and every post I make here, I spread the links like wildfire…
G’nite!
With all due respect, I can appreciate what you do. But you are monopolizing the blogs so much so that we have to dig to find other blogs we like to read. I miss out on blogs I like because I dont go back far enough..and I really would like it if I didnt have to. If you could perhaps post them together.. in maybe two blogs a day it wouldnt be so bad.
As far as donations go.. Lady, I have spent over three hundred dollars in the last month in the friendburst store. I have pimped this place like no other because I believe in it. I have recruited possibly in the hundreds…so dont you dare presume I do nothing here.
I apologise for my tantrum… I guess my patience has worn out. With my apology I would appreciate that you take all this under consideration and change your procedure for alerting the public on the desperate plight of animals.
Robbie has been, and is a great supporter and we at FriendBurst are extremely grateful. Robbie is well respected by myself. She is probably one of the few people using our FriendBurst store and I know she has brought many people here. The thing to remember is Friendburst is not owned by a big corporation, so we depend on our members for support.
I was really hoping we would have blog subscriptions in by now. Lets look at what the real issue is. The bigger issue is as we grow it will be harder and harder to find blogs people want. We could not stay small forever, and we won’t. The solution is to continue to work on a good way to subscribe to blogs.
For some reason we have been plagued with programming issues on the subscriptions but continue to plug away at it, and I know that is frustrating to some and many may even leave until we get a good blog subscription process in place. We are also working on programming to only allow people to pick one or more categories. That way categories will be more meaningful.
What I may suggest is that perhaps Robbie and Animal Rights friend each other and see if you can work something out in a chat room or instant message. Working out solutions in blogs can be hard due to the time lag between messages. just an idea.
Thats it for now, I just wanted to pop in and let people know I am totally aware of what is going on. I am trying not to get in the middle of this and would like to see the community work this out themselves as we work on programming and improving FriendBurst for everyone.
I’m relatively new here, but usually, to some limited degree, I have a fairly good idea of the content of most of the blogs I enter. I can opt not to enter a blog that I deem might be offensive to me.
I share Marian’s view that causes can be presented with dignity and respect, and not forced upon others in such shocking and graphic detail.These are tactics used by zealous religious fanatics as well…with the same results.
I also support this site in every way possible, but this does not give me the right (if I cared for such right) to force my thoughts and causes on those who share different interests, or none at all.
I have opened to my profile which I have made to fit my tastes and interests, to find gruesome photos. I understand the urgency that those who posted those photos sense…..but I start my day here, my first cup of coffee here…and it is unsettling. People should be given the same compassion and respect that the animal rights advocates want for the animals.
Thank you for making this blog, Robbie, and for the respectful manner in which it was presented.
I cant wait for blog subscriptions. I have limited time these days as it is and when I come on here to read, it would be nice to be able to find interesting blogs to read by people I enjoy instead of digging through 5 million “dont eat meat, you are evil animal activist” blogs. No offense to them, they are entitled to their opinion but I see it as overkill trying to get their message out. I think more people might be open to listening to them if they didnt bombard us with it constantly, me personally I could care less about all that. I like what I like end of story.
Commenting on blog posts is coming back soon. You can read the comments here; to talk with a member now, leave a comment on their profile or send them a message.

Number 4 has a good point. Several of em. Wish I could say that he stole my thunder, but I’d be reachin quite a bit if I did. Well played Robbie.
