If others aren't interested about your news, maybe there's a reason for that. Maybe you even overestimated the importance and general impact of your work. If you aren't as successful as you wanted to be, try to become more respectable, reputable and reliable instead of crying "buhuu, no one pays me".

Wow what an asshat

Where do you have any standing to criticize? Do you have anything to offer in rebuttal?
This is just whining and complaining for its own sake, nothing is accomplished besides alienation and hostility.
I have NO difficulty with what is going on here. It is only fair to withhold specific information until it can be independently verified. The point here is not to cast blame or aspersions, but rather to solve problems. There are people and personalities and egos involved, tact and care are required to avoid conflict. However you seem to be just inflaming conflict for its own sake because you need something to get excited about. Chill out and let things take their proper course.

You might want to investigate LWN.net, where you're not allowed to read articles for a week unless you paid for a subscription. The trick is to find out why people are willing to do that with LWN but not with Phoronix. Hint: sensationalism does not fly very well when your readers are mostly hackers and power users.

Huh?

You could have said "You might want to investigate nytimes.com" and that would have been about as relevant.

Blame is in the eye of the beholder
Originally posted by RealNC View PostBlame was placed in the article itself ("no one helps me, no one pays me, so there, I won't publish until tomorrow.")
It isn't necessary or even proper to interpret his words in this manner. Again you are just inflaming things to boost your ego.

Support..
The Linux community needs sites such as Phoronix, that's my opinion and I stand by it. The thought has crossed my mind from time to time and now I'm 100% sure, I will get Phoronix Premium to give my support (and get rid of commercials of course) - I encourage you to do the same if you haven't yet.
Keep up the good work Michael
Best regards
/Tomas

I admire what michael has done (if it is real), it wasn't his job but he has nuts and motivation!
Although I totally agree with RealNC. This is a news site point. When I buy a newspaper I read structured news with content, when I read tom's hardware I see good hardware articles. But when I read phoronix, I find a lot of news of the type: Next week something awesome could happen on catalyst driver, someone has contacted me and told me blah blah, I found something, and neext week I will post my results... definitely, this is not profesionalLast edited by Jimbo; 26 June 2011, 02:38 PM.
