Brad, I may be accused of sucking up for saying this, but who cares -
You and Jeff and Jill and SI Admin (God) have made a fine place here, sometimes it's like coming home to log in. Not perfect, but closer than anywhere else I've been on this net.

Song for y'all - #reply-7583842 ...... salú

Brad, What is the exact reason that is causing this squid cache problem?

Remove Bookmark links... ARGH!

Brad,

Yesterday, I installed a "web accelerator" which reads ahead and pulls in pages that are linked to from the current page. Of course, it followed every single "Remove Bookmark" link, but not a single link that I wanted.

Is there any way you could give an Option to hide the Remove Bookmark links? They're way too easy to get to!

SI has gotten so agonizingly slow!!

i've read numerous posted complaints from folks who essentially have time to go paint the garage, or go shopping, etc. while waiting for an SI page to load. i have a cable modem, and haven't been experiencing the excruciating wait times they're hollering about.

well guess what? last night and today, things have pretty much ground to a crawl around here!

and it's not my isp, or my machine. i continue to load other sites that are super graphic-intensive in mere seconds. and i can do this with the sites uncached. then there's SI, the plodder.

does anyone address these conditions? is it going to be fixed? when?

thank you.

mark

Can you please tell me why Agent 86 was forced to change his redirect link on is profile
but you have allowed Bill Ulrich to keep his... he has discussed his redirect link on his profile on this thread

What makes his acceptable and Agent 86's unacceptable?
If I put up a redirect link like Bill Ulrich's am I going to get a note from Jill???

If I put up a redirect link like Agent 86 am I going to get a note from Jill????

Brad,

Would you please publicly comment on this post?

Message 8419606

You may be aware of the background of this controversy, but if you need to
refresh your memory, look back to the post I am responding to and follow the various
links forward.

It seems to me that the fact that Daniel Miller and some others (such as Fatt Matt) are
below 18 years of age should result in immediate termination of their SI accounts under
the current terms of use.

Basically, they have certified that they are of age when, in fact, they are not. This
situation is analogous to a minor walking into a bar and trying to buy a beer. If the
bartender does not card them, he may not be liable (but usually is), but if he knows
(such as in the case of Daniel Miller) that he is underage, the bartender is subject to
severe legal penalties.

Since SI has not terminated these minor accounts, despite the enormous amount of
external publicity (Bloomberg, CNBC, WSJ, etc.) and the ongoing SI discussion, it
seems that SI is willing to sign up and retain minors as members.

If so, then SI should modify the present terms of use eliminating the explicit statement:

5.1 Current fees may be obtained by going to the Features Overview or Register
sections of the Silicon Investor site. The membership is personal to you, and
you may not assign or otherwise transfer your rights or obligations to anyone.
You certify that you are 18 years or older and you agree to be responsible for
and pay any charges incurred in connection with your user name and password.
The membership shall continue until we receive notice of termination from you
or we exercise our rights of termination as described in the Terms of Use. We
reserve the right to change at any time the membership fees and billing methods.

to eliminate the age requirement.

I wonder if the SI disclaimer will stand up to litigation when/if the SEC goes after DM?
It seems to me that your position will be greatly weakened by the year-long toleration
of a minor posting on your site.

Regards,

Tom Swift
