Brandon, I admire your chutzpah (especially the combination of calling someone else a spammer in the same message that you include the contents of one of your marketing pages), but really, enough.
I'm quite happy that CloudFlare has chosen to participate in this forum - I've tried to encourage it through what contacts I have. And so far, I'm happy with their service. If you want to point out specific issues that we (users) should be aware of, I'd love to hear it, but "screwed over" isn't really enough technical detail. And the tone makes you look like a jerk. As far as I'm aware, the biggest complaint is that the integrated DOS protection system will sometimes false-positive users with a CAPCHA. This is, AFIACT, a non-issue if you disable the DOS protection system (which I have - I can always turn it on manually). If you'd like to explain why I'm making a mistake by using this service, I'm listening, but it had better be good.
