What is the point of this meaningless post? Such posts by moderators cannot conceal the fact that the forum is dead.

Aren't you the one constantly riling against censorship? What's with the policing of my simple statement of appreciation? I don't post anything I don't mean.
I get your disappointment, I been wishing the forum was more active, too.smaragdus wrote: ↑Such posts by moderators cannot conceal the fact that the forum is dead.
We are definitely down on overall forum activity but we still have good site visitation numbers and, at least for me, portable software is solving problems on a daily basis. Once it stops making my life easier, I'll certainly move on.
You've put hundreds of hours of great work into the site, making that disappear would disable a lot of very valuable, well-research tools and resources. I hope you change your mind about their removal.smaragdus wrote:Please delete my account and all my posts.
The truth is we've had a lot of intense and opinionated people over the last decade and we need them. They take up the mantle of what is kind of a strange, often thankless project. It's worth the trouble: the programs we highlight by very smart devs get the word out to thousands of people and make people's work on computers less crappy. The rest of the web as I see it right now does this VERY poorly. Most posts I see are barely transparent article-as-sales-pitch posts and paid reviews.
