Subject: Kicked.

Even kicked out of the room I stand by my position. If existing features do not work it's a bad idea to implement new ones.

Brad, you know, one can't help but wonder if the current problems are a product of a bad economy, or out of touch employees but I am willing to bet it is the later.

In the age of angst you can't just throw money at a problem and assume it will go away, you must shift the entire focus, be inclusive instead of divisive, and set the path clearly showing where you are going, how you are going to get there, and who is behind you.

LiveVideo.com is horribly mismanaged. Have you, or anyone, taken the time to look at the numbers? You're the owner of the only site to ever offer a serious challenge and alternative to YouTube and at this point that's been totally peddled away.

You've added new features and the user base declined. You paid entertainers and the user base declined, you bought sister sites like pageflakes and revver, and the user base declined.

Doesn't this strike you as a problem?

What are you going to do? Are you willing to move, or are you just hoping throwing more money into a pit will accomplish something?

It hasn't worked yet.

Anyone who things LV stil can be or will be "a great site" either was never here in the early days when this site truly was great, or they are dilusionally hanging on to a thread that has already snapped and left them on the floor.

I like how Brad once had a site that could compete with YouTube and now he is excited about how it can be "better than stickam". Kind of like if the Wright Brothers almost got their invention to fly, but right at that moment before take off they decided it would make a better bicycle. Just dumb.

Wild.Mike I will have to say that sometimes you amaze me at the
way that you are able to take a complicated situation and express
it so that everyone understands.

Your comment below did that and I agree with it 100%.

Mac on this I will agree with your email that you sent to Brad.

I also agree with Az because it was in 2007 when things started
going down and had nothing at all to do with the economy.

If Brad really cared for this site he would open a show and invite
everyone in or why not just post a blog Brad and talk to the
community that way.

I have nothing against the newbies here at all but Brad really
needs to talk with the people who have been here thru the
thick and thin to really understand everything about what
this community needs to get back up and keep growing.

The community needs MODS on this site NOW because things
are way out of control here.

And each time it declined it was because Brad Greenspan declined to see the truth. The truth is: buy websites, not pay employees, add new features to lv, not pay employees...yep, it's a truly viable business plan...Brad Greenspan has built a multi-million dollar empire solidly upon the trust fund his mommy and daddy left him. This is one thing I'm certain of because he certainly didn't build it from having a business mind...

My personal belief is, Greenspam has a handheld shower massager he has named Mr.Numzane, and in his most private moments refers to as "Numzy".

I hope he does it for you baby!!!
