edit: I think ahswtini's concern is that no admins like Heyoka have responded or someone from TLHQ like Naz/R1CH, etc. | ||

But I feel like this website is at a low right now....so either they dont care or it hasn't been addressed, or the solution is taking a long time to come around or hasn't worked. | ||

Criticism (some constructive) -> "dead site" -> apologist. I guess it's been a 'busy' time since the site released. Nazgul doesn't own and run this site because he's charitable. He's offering us a platform because he thinks its financially viable and worthwhile to his Liquid brand. Maybe it is, none of us will know without the data but enough of the community feel he's offering a bad product, and mods/admins/volunteers by their own admission are 'too busy' to do anything with the site, so I'm not sure there is much else to say other than changes clearly need to happen. We don't need to make excuses about the lacking features/content of the site, we need people to do something, or not I suppose. If the site is making enough as is and adding additional content isn't cost/time effective I guess they don't need to do shit. I just know to me, the site sucks. Outside of the calendar and the upcoming LPCL (which is user content) there isn't anything worth coming to this site for. Which is something I couldn't ever imagine saying about a Liquid site. I was a pretty big fucking fan boy. | ||

I'm pretty sure being mad and throwing a tantrum with no constructive advice is not helping We've already discussed above; reality is that LD currently lacks user-generated content. The question is how we're going to get more. You paint Nazgul like he's some corporate shareholder, but I highly doubt he's running LD for the ROI, otherwise he'd be spamming the site with ads. | ||

The ones whose responsibility to grow the community and build the site should be creating an experience that the users are excited to be more involved in and add to the greatness, not create the greatness. You can't offer little to nothing and then blame the community for not making your site great. | ||
