It is a community of people, it is diverse and demanding. And simply put, the person in charge needs to be around a hell of a lot more than every other month or so.
Sorry Emanuel, but it feels to me and others that this place is being left to die. It promises things it does not deliver, and if I was a new member, or guest looking round right now. I am pretty sure it would not hold my interest for long.
And that fact is the saddest part of all!
Sad but True 
What shall we do? Do we want to go down with the ship, or should we all band together and boycott the site to get attention???

Here is an interesting idea: Emanuel took this site on as an investment. Correct me on this, Proc, if I'm wrong... but you are not really a Chopper?
So (I suspect) - this site was purchased as an investment. Proc makes money off of our creative juices (and our tawdry thread battles) by people coming in to watch us in our little Zoo here. He most likely makes this money through the click through and the sales of banner ads. (You remember when those first showed up? rather annoying things... but we surrendered that fact as part of the cost of doing business).
So Proc bought the building and we tennants resided in that building. Proc has been gettin his "rent" from us (ADVANTAGE) and from site traffic (advertising). But much like a (and sorry but it is part of the analogy) slum, the landlord ain't seeming to be doin' enough o' that UPKEEP stuff.
Understand that if we, the creative force, move out, the building sits empty and eventually it gets resold or gets torn down. No one will come by here if there aren't our pretty pictures up in our apartment windows... nothing to see... nothing to do. No one paying Advantage. No one wanting to advertise to an empty room.
My main point: WE are what create any CASH that flows to Proc via this site. Without us Proc does NOT have a source of income from this site.
My mainer point: Proc - look after us. We look after you. Show us that we are more than a part-time fiscal bump on your road to glory, eh? Come on dude - kick it up a knotch or two.

Wow! Well said!
Maybe this is what we need to do. Move out and quit paying the rent (Advantage)

Or everyone boycotts the site for one day. No posting of images, no forum, no chat.

No offense, but proc probably wouldn't see it.
