Sadly,I find myself more disconnected with this place than I care to admit.I can truly say this has been the only place that has caused me to repair some burned bridges.But I digress I'm only going to offer some insight and ideas.


"Earning money is like digging for gold with a needle.Spending money is like water going through sand."--Japanese proverb.

The meaning here is what has already been said.Everyone's socioeconomic situations are going to be different.Be it a loss/gain of a/or job(s),marriage,raising children etc.When the membership is gone,so is the ability to see comic pages,games/puzzles,pin-ups/avatars and in turn nobody can make a comment when they can't see what everyone else is discussing while on the flip side time and money has to be devoted the family.


"We walk in the foot steps of giants."--Indonesian proverb

The meaning here is that the competition has some of the biggest names in the furry art community doing various artworks for these sites and following them are a lot of their fans joining said sites.


" Look at it, dude. You're not offering any fabulous prizes. You have to offer fabulous prizes if you want people to show up"--Cartman to Stan

We need to offer people a "more bang for their buck" because status quo
isn't going to make it.


"The patience of a person can be vast but not always Buddha."--Chinese proverb

The one thing we had going for us over the competition was the avatar and chance to have a cameo.The rules dictated that a person had to be a paying member and active on the forums for 6 months to prove one's loyalty and a lot of people did what they had to do to gain a spot however the major drawbacks we had were the lists were longer than a guest list at hot nightclub in Las Vegas,only a few people got selected,and the wait times in between were worse than an emergency room on a bad flu outbreak. people get frustrated when they spend time and money into something and gain nothing for their efforts.

I admit one of the draws of the site was, in fact, the royal avatar of my own and selective cameos in ms. Vanessa's comic. That said, things have changed since I have started being here. For one, I don't have the same income that I did when I first started as a college student. Now that college is pretty much over (One class still needed, but have to take it later), I have now been actively seeking a job.

I will still continue to support the site whenever possible as I earn the money, and I admit that I have been on and off the subscription as of late. That said, I still want to remain faithful because I want to see where the story goes, because it is a very lovely tale that so few can express.

Yeah the avatar and cameo was a huge bonus since it's the only way to get art from Vanessa and with that gone it hurts the site, hopefully the MMO will also help to bring some life back when it is finally finished.

I'll still be here to read the comics and admire Vanessa's artwork. I will also go to the forum to hear news that I may have missed.

I don't doubt there will be people that will continue to support the site in some shape,form,or fashion.I simply thought about the lack of activity and what we need to think about if we want more members to show up.Using vanilla tactics is only going to get a small amount of people.Sites like SF and FAD have some of the big name furry artists doing illustrations,pin-ups,comics,and some sometimes will do commission works that appear on said sites.I'm not trying to disrespect Vanessa or her story.I'm sure she has a lot in store before the finale but people want to have something to show for the amount time and money they're shelling out.As for the loss of the avatar creation,I was angry considering the time,money,and energy I spent but life dictates everything and if that meant I lost my chance so be it.As for the MMO,lots of questions need to be asked and answered.With the time I have left,I may not see it in my lifetime but I hope it helps the site.

I agree with you Silv.But as I said before,those artists have a huge following on their websites and a percentage of those guys are willing to spend money on sites promoting the artists' work and if we want to get people we're going to need to think of something that will entice people.

I would've loved to see this place when it was busy. ...

We need more people, that is certain. New conversations and whatnot. But like stated above, tis piracy and bots that are a problem.

Foxy no happy!

Somehow, and this is instinct saying this on my part, I think we might have an upturning of new members in the near future. Don't ask me how, its just my gut saying it.
