Yup I appreciate that and should have made it more clear my frustrations with the site.
I haven't said much about it because for complicated historical reasons I've ended up as a webmaster at another site rather than a mod here anymore. This means that anything I say I have to watch that it isn't seen by some dummies as an us v them thing which as you know lots of people have tried to start but won't happen because we're all pals and know the history.
Anyhoo as someone that has posted here since 1999 or whatever and preregistered when the site came back up by Sarge I'm disappointed with the way things have gone and that's all I meant.
When I said 'step up to the plate' it wasn't about upgrading the software. I know that an upgrade isn't possible because the VB software here was never bought in the first place and in any case we can't upgrade it because it's now a few versions out of date and we have an absentee landlord.
My issue is with the switching off of new registrations. With all due respect Conmee these have been switched off since August missing the chance to capitalise and build the site on the reunion. Why?
Because some pricks from the O&A site owned it?
At HW we used to have fun trolling shitty dodgy websites and it was funny but I can't remember ever owning one like this place got owned by those assholes.
How did that happen? That would never have happened in the old days. I remember us in 2001 or so cleaning up a mass spam attack from BEPH and his pals one night that was 300 posts of beastiality porn and whatever and laughing about it in the mod forum. Now what happens is that you have a mod posting beastiality porn all the time and shut down new registrations for 3 months when there was finally something for people to post about.
And before anyone(well flabbo) says anything whilst helping to pay for DDLR I also just about contributed enough here to pay for a new VB license in any case.
Cheers!
