still lmfao that everything so far proves that the admins are reading this thread constantly but they can't be bothered to post even once in it to talk through what's happened

so cool that the admins and owner's first impulse isn't to circle the wagons, but to tunnel twelve miles underground to a place where no light, sound, nor even radio waves reach so that they can circle the wagons there in the dark silence

tbh part of what pisses me off about this entire situation is that there is 100% still a market for this site in 2023, even among ppl my age. right before the astral stuff went down i was talking with an online friend who was lamenting how fuckin bad Reddit and MyAnimeList are for actually discussing anime, and i got him to lurk ADTRW and he liked the atmosphere & posts he was seeing. it's actually criminal that for all the discussion virtually ages ago about entering the modern age and broadening the userbase, the most to show for it are a smattering of Twitter posts and minor QoL tech fixes. like just fuckin do anything that isn't digging the deepest hole imaginable or vanishing into the night, it shouldn't be a hard ask

and im not kidding that was the last time fyad had over 100 users. I promise that it was filled with anime forum regulars. No lie lol

I don't know where I'd find a site that does "hey let's talk about X genre of game and all the games in that genre and share recommendations and compare and contrast" that does it as well as the Games forum

The Politoon thread in D&D is - for a D&D thread - a good community of people who like to comment on and groan at awful propaganda and occasionally share really neat historical stuff

PYF is fuckin' awesome

I just wish the admins were actually interested in letting there be a community that hangs out and has fun rather than needing to be aloof gods upon their pillars smiting funny posters with no explanation other than "u care too much, u should lol more, lol lol lol ban + 30"

Durrr no there was too much posting if current drama in the pyf forums sagas & current drama thread. Also we killed one of the IKs for doing something they've done 4000 times before but baby didn't have a nappy that day so fluffdaddy was grumpy.

It's the goal. It has to be because there has been absolutely no work to fix people leaving or not wanting to come here and a huge amount of effort devoted to making sure people leave.

i think people are extrapolating a lot about how threads they posted in encompass the Whole Userbase. theres nearly 2000 people online at around midnight american pst. how many of them know what the sagas thread is

while i don't disagree that the majority of the site is unaware of a bubbling resentment, the fact there's a sizeable resentment at all is a problem. criticizing the absence of current administration shouldn't be a "oh more than 50% of a given thread has explained such, let's listen to them" issue, it's rlly noticeable that Jeff has only crawled out of his hole for Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup and to reaffirm astral.
