What's happened to this site?

Unread post by Almostbitten »

Hardly worth coming on here anymore the site seems as if it's not being run properly.
Most the successes aren't getting a response from the admin then he turns up and responds to a few then disappears again for a month. Their is more spam posts than anything else every time I log on.
Time to leave here and find something better.

Unfortunately the site has been hijacked by trolls, and I'm 90% certain those trolls are also the admin, so when they do come back you're also likely to see a load of shite along with them. and seeing as all the original mods are long gone, the admin is the only person that can appoint new people to maintain it. Its a real shame to be honest. This site used to be useful and fun, but unfortunately there aren't really a lot of alternatives.

It is by far the worst forum I have ever been a member of it's utter rubbish with as you say more spam constantly that real posts. I don't post my successes on here anymore because all I get is spam or nasty private messages from little minded morons. Someone should start up a new one.

I think you got it spot on there about the admin. How did you know he was the troll?

Lots of reasons. Especially when my posts get deleted for no reason and my reports get ignored
