I do think you guys are going a LITTLE bit overboard

@Just C @Jason It makes sense that mods would defend the site on a day like this. But instead of your redundant rhetoric lets look at the facts

- Record Day failed
- LB, compared to where it was a few years ago, is failing
- User activity has hit an all time low in both battles and forums.

Instead of doing what a typical moderator does..which is defending the site because the admins privileged ya'll with administrative abilities, you guys need to look at it through a regular community member's eyes.

@EtH and I have spent more years on this bitch than most of ya'll have, and when community members constantly ask for innovation its because we know what the site is capable of and what it used to be. That "If you don't like it then gtfo" attitude doesn't help the situation at all, and that's definitely no way to address members that have a great deal of appreciation for what the site is, what it used to be, and what it can become. I'm sure a lot of us are willing to put money into paid memberships and even into the site if the powers in charge decide to move on it. But this site's had the exact same look & set of features for 6-7 years. You can only sell a blind man a dead fish for so long before he reaches into the tank and finds it to be lifeless.
