Well, if that's the attitude you all want to have, then blow me. 
Wow. I've had updates where no one seemed to care, but I've never felt like saying that. :blink:

Just because people aren't singing from the mountain tops how thankful they were for a recent site update doesn't give you the right to get snotty.  <_<

You may have a point, but still, it's always good to see at least some feedback so your members know how they think about the updates and everything, you know? Otherwise you'd never know whether they actually saw the new content or not.

First of all, just about any time you guys do an update your members practically slobber all over themselves. 

Second, I agree with Mike. It was (what I thought) was a fantastic update, and getting no reaction at all hurt more than anyhting. Especially because I distinctly remmber everybody mentioning many times over that they'd like to see more clips of past hurricane coverage, especially Isabel.

What I think the problem was is that most users here have already seen all this hurricane footage on DJ's YouTube account, so they weren't too enthusiastic about seeing it again. If it had been fresh footage, then I think the reaction would've been much greater.

Still, I know you put a lot of time into this update, Gary, and I'm sure everyone here appreciates that.

I figured that might have something to do with it, but then again none of DJ''s clips have any comments or ratings. I figured if people saw them there would at least be some of each. Further, he's only had them up for about a month.

I still have more I'd like to post, but I'm not sure I will.  :(

Come on, guys. Gary put a lot of time to try to make this site a great one, and you guys are giving him a hard time. Would you rather have him close this site?

It may be on YouTube, but at least it's on the site too so you'd have an easier way of saving it (in case it gets deleted on YT).

I've gone ahead and hidden the emulator project boards again. It doesn't seem like much is getting done with it right now, and Kyle has made very few appearances lately, so it doesn't make much sense to leave them there to take up space. They've only been hidden though. The content is still there. And they will be restored when things move forward.

Also, I have some ideas for new things to add to the forum, so stay tuned!  :sunglasses: :twothumbs:
