If asking people to give ways to help the forums imporove is bitching in your opnion, then you apparently don't give a shit about the forums.
Also, I stopped trying to funny when I got my name changed, it just seems nobody got the fucking point. I already pointed out whats wrong with the forums. Hell, I'm not the only person to point out we're in a slump, if I remember correctly Arrow made a post about this not even a month ago.
Also I've pointed out that people spend too much time in irc, the forums are the meat and potatoes. Irc is like grated cheese on the potatoes, not the fucking main course.
