This board is a cash cow and it's pretty obvious that not a cent is spent on trying to upgrades / maintenance.

As a past advertiser here I will say in public the reason I stoped advertising here was the sheer amount of surfers, non webmasters, and quantity of fake nicks (fake views). So less users though a higher concentration of webmasters would make for more reasoning for advertising.
Maintenance issues really would not be an issue if there was not a 10 to 1 ratio of surfers to webmasters. A Tsunami of sigwhores, five thousand fake nicks stirring up shit, a whole series of bot wars trying to win contests or raise their post counts.
As for the spirit/ambiance, if you were here when it first opened up that was far from the case and it was 100% webmasters. Hell I would say the best drama was when it was real webmasters.
