Ronnie You and Greenie's clocks must be wound different than mine, you see it as Weg O Web I saw it as We Go Web, still don't know what I'm going to do with the name but I like it

and in that lies the basis of the problem....PHPLD is a barely functional script and really not ready for prime time if your running a medium sized directory

BTW just because I'm a weird fucking duck...I read it as Wego Web

Just to clarify, you are using phpLD News, not phpLD.
phpLD News is used on about 30-50 sites, while phpLD is used on close to 100,000 sites. Admittedly, phpLD News is not as well developed simply because there are fewer users, though we have several people that do like the script (just not on this forum).

However, to say the phpLD is barely functional would be quite the understatement, as it is the mostly widely used directory script, and used on almost 100,000 sites.

Are you going to go around and try to respond to every 6 month old post about your product?

Just to clarify, I am not using phpLD news and when I purchased whatever it was...it was called Newstopica and I threw that in the garbage long ago.

I am using a very old copy of phpLD that I never upgraded. I spent over a year talking to other adult webmasters who use phpLD about what I didn't like about the version I had and verifying whether those issues had been resolved or not. They weren't and I gave up even thinking about upgrading shortly after I purchased Newstopica and ran into the customer support issues I had with you. The final straw came from conversations I had with Oast, who had also purchased a copy of whatever it is you want to call it, and found out that you were telling him a much different story than you were me. At that point in time, I decided I would not give another penny to someone who lied to me like that.

Now do you want me to list the version I am using and all the bugs / issues I have with the script and we can see if some professional link list owners would like to comment on my assesment at that time as to whether the script was barely functional or not. BTW in case you don't know the term a link list is basicly a directory of free sites.

Or would your rather just shut the fuck up and go away. Your defense of your product is doing nothing more than pissing off more potential customers than changing anyones mind as to the usefulness of it or the honesty of the scripts owner.
