very nice

Fix your broken app. It's always a different issue with the video player. Sometimes it just cuts out for no reason and now it's restarting the video if you skip ahead, requiring you to close the video and reopen it multiple times until it works again. People pay money to support creators, have some respect for your users.

Site suffers frequent database errors, has trouble with nested comments, user credentialing and in general exhibits wonky behavior frequently. "Is everyone seeing this error?" is a frequent discussion topic
