I dont care about this site. I had a vague suggestion that I thought might help the site to become something I cared about again.
I dont see why you or Odeon should trust me, just as I certainly dont trust either of you. However, thinking that a boring site needs some more youth is not a lie. It is quite clearly an opinion.
In a way, I think you do. It was important for you, when you joined, it was amazing for you to be here then. And, you want it to be that amazing again. You do care, for what it was.
Is the site in a bad shape at the moment?
Don't really have an eye for that. Somehow me and the computer are not interacting that much lately.
Would drama help?
Most of drama happening here is boring as hell in my opinion. Especially drama between people that is going on for a long time. No new views, same sentences, same replies. Nothing constructive. And, because of all the repetition, the funfactor is gone too.
Sometimes there is quality drama, with true discussions, and, when really good, it is constructive too. It's where members can surprise me. Very rare, quality drama.
It depends on me, and on I2, how I roam around here. Lately, I skip 75% or more of the posts of MLA, Richard and Lestat, because it is the usual jabbing towards each other. But, all three also now and then surprise me with posts I like, or really like.
Would love that 75% boring "you ....." to become less, and, when there, more creative in insulting, but, when that is what they love, that is what they love.
The drama in this thread has become boring by now, because it is a repetition of moves, and even bringing in older moves, from similar drama years back. No new developments. So, time to drop it, and to derail it.
The discussion will start again, some day. But, what can one change on a site that isn't moderated.
A moderated site exists and is the way it is because of it's members, an unmoderated site even more.
The only change I see possible is that arcade Bodie mentioned, and, maybe something in the lay-out/categorising of threads. The latter would take lots of time. And, lots of people would hate it, because of the changes. So, not seeing that happen.
For the rest, it is the members, the members that are here will shape what it is, and, that will attract some members, where others will hate it, for the same reason.
