State of the Union
PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU CARE ABOUT MILKBOYS ;)
I got some angry messages lately because I didn’t reply to mails “within time”. I’d like to point out something related to this in general: contrary to popular belief I don’t do stuff related to milkboys 24/7. I do spend several hours a days doing different things for the blog(s), the forum, the chat and so on but I do this in my spare time and for free. Of course it’s a part of my life and most of the time it’s fun (I wouldn’t do it otherwise naturally) but, to be totally honest, it annoys me if people get demanding about it. I know most of you appreciate what you get without a doubt but there are quite a few people who seem to think I owe them what I do here and that they have a right to get whatever they ask for and as soon as possible of course.
Yes, I’m slow with responding to mails and yes, the blog posts were a bit boring lately. But I can’t do a thing about this at the moment. I have a lot of things to sort out right know about my life, my education and whatnot so the people who are whining because they don’t get what they want have to live with that, if they like it or not.
On a more positive note I’d like to thank all the people who help me keeping things running. The moderators in the forum and the chat, the active members of the community who take things into their hands by helping other members, making constructive suggestions & even starting their own projects related to milkboys and last but not least of course the donors who are kind enough to pay for the server. Everyone of you is a vital part of what we are building here, regardless of if you help with money, time or your energy. It’s your enthusiasm that animates milkboys!
And personally I’m happy that some of you even became great friends to me. It’s amazing to meet awesome people from so many places all over the world, might it be Holland, Scotland, Sweden, England, Australia, Japan or wherever else, you know who you are :) I know this applies not only to me, quite a few of you even found a loving boyfriend within the community and if that doesn’t make all the work worth it…
have a community photo since no one like posts without pictures :p

One other comment said “don’t let them get to you”. Grandpa says Hang in there kid – you’re doing a great service. Too bad there weren’t heroes like you 50 years ago.

Like some of the other posters have said, you make a difference to some guy’s lifes in so many positive ways. That’s your reward for doing the fantastic stuff you do, all these suberb comments that so many other people have put here are great in themselves but are surely such a bonus compared to that.

Your site is great and your work much appreciated, the complaints will be from the last people who would get off their buts to do something like this or to help run a site like here,
Thanks for your great work!! :)

I’m a long-time lurker who finally started a blog–nothing fancy, just a list of blogs I like and a few pics. You are an inspiration to me. Keep up the good work.

Thanks a lot for the kind comments, messages and mails everyone. I hope that post didn’t come across as fishing for compliments ’cause that definitely wasn’t its intention ;)

no Josh….it didn’t come across that way at all……you’ve done a fantastic job showing the world that being gay isn’t just about sex, porn, drugs, and booze (a lesson i wish would pick up here)…..and by providing a place where people can visit, blog, post arty photos (or find anything else they’re looking for) without backlash from the provider. Call it a community if you like. That’s why i dropped you an email to see if you’d gotten enough to get your birthday present……and if you did but had to lay out a big chunk of your own coinage……i’ll make up the difference. You’ve done wonders for a lot of people (including me), and frankly, given how much time and your own funds you’ve had to expend to make MB what it is….well, it’s Josh’s turn for a change….. *HUGZ*

Hi,
I know exactly what you mean. I have the same experences. Though I post on a regular, almost dayly basis on my blog and 2 other forums. People are so demanding and I received agry mail because I did not respond (quick enough)!!? I have a business to run 12 h./6 days and a private live too. I do not ask anything back for my efforts and the only thing what makes me going are the positive responds and some nice friends to chat with.
Keep up the good work and I wished I had the time to work more closely with you, anyway thank a lot for the help and support you already gave me with the back-up blog.
Your friend,
Sinal
