Thanks, Movable Type


So I may have to close BoRCom now. Seems MT likes to re-write their policies without letting anyone know. I am beyond angry right now, I am raging right now and my next call will be to my lawyer to get a clear definition and validation that I am not in the wrong.

I contacted MT in August to ask them about a bulk price. I currently have 5 licensed copies of MT, not counting the personal one for this blog. I have also purchased two installations over time so I've dumped well over $500 into MT. I haven't minded, for the longest time now I've done nothing but sing the virtues of MT and the company itself. I have introduced people to MT who have gone on to purchase their own licensing.

I have followed the MT license policy to the letter. While I do have a large amount of blogs on roleplay, I have not made one cent off of it because I do not charge for the blogs. Not a penny. People tend to ask me "why do you do this?" and I have no answer other than "because I like it." There are enough services out there who charge or use codes or have some sort of hidden catch, I do not. I offer a F R E E blog, that's it. There is no FTP access, there are no bells and whistles but there are free blogs.

I pay the dedicated server monthly at EV1
I pay for the domain registrations
I pay for each and every MT license / upgrade
I charge nothing for a blog
I ask for nothing in return for a blog
I accept donations but that's supposed to be ok

(very long and angry ranting inside)
