i had a website once (1)

it was popular and it was great and i loved it (and that's not just e-onanism, it was very much community driven - without its users it would have been nothing). sure there were problems, the occasional troll and one more specific problem that i solved in a way that's not entirely satisfactory but sort of did the trick and shut people up for a while, but it was mostly great.

then that great enemy of the internet, "being too fucking busy", raised its ugly head, and i had to hand it over to someone else. this person did a fine job running the place, probably better than i did, but soon real life came calling for him too and it changed hands once again. And again, and maybe again, i wasn't really watching at this point.

but i just went back there today, and it's just... horrible, it looks about the same but its like the whole underlying philosophy of the place and its administration now runs entirely contrary to my vision for it in so many ways. Except of course my half arsed solution to that specific problem mentioned above, which is now upheld like it's one of the ten fucking commandments or something. it has more users than it used to, but only about 10% are the sort of people that i'd actually want there, the rest being either twats, idiots or arseholes.

i feel like i should start over with something almost exactly the same as the site as it originally was, because there really isn't anything like it anymore... but i can't afford the bandwidth. ah well.
