In short, a lot of us are still here. It's no secret that we're in a bit of a...haze right now. We've lost some good, fun, familiar faces on both sides of the site, but we're still here. And we plan on staying that way. And we're glad you're here too. We're trying to come up with ways to boost everything traffic and discussion-wise, but it's a process. In the interim keep posting, keep trying to bring new people in, keep Liking or Digging or whatever your preferred method of sharing the articles is. I realize there are a lot of longtimers with thoughts and theories and opinions on the various struggles we've had and there's nothing inherently wrong or objectionable about sharing them, but I would ask that we try to focus on looking forward. The fact of the matter is we've HAD all of those discussions multiple, multiple times and at this point there's nothing to say on the past that hasn't been said. So - onward and upward. What we don't want is negativity, or attacks, or grumpy assholes who just want to stir up shit. If you hate CHUD then go away, if you love CHUD but are frustrated with the current State of the Union, so to speak, then we understand. We are too, and we want to fix it. To that end, let us know what you like, what you don't like and what you'd like to see more of. You can always feel free to get a hold of Eileen, myself, Renn and Nick if you have anything you'd like us to look at or address. But again, we ask that you keep it positive and constructive. We're all a bit too busy to deal with the same attacks that have been lobbed at us for quite awhile now.
At the end of the day all (well, most) of us are here because despite everything else we love CHUD. Right now I think that'll be as good a platform as any to start making this the site and community you want and deserve. I look forward to seeing ALL of you (new and old alike) around the site.
