Oh, you think so? Well, Xero's administration didn't start until he came here on December 24, 08. You and I each have a Join Date that precedes his (Your Join Date on November 15, 08 precedes his by one month and my Join date of September 20, 08 precedes his by three months). Most of the staff here with a very few rare exceptions, like Stoner who joined on March 05, 08 on "Day one" of this site, Mistress who joined on May 03, 08 and Arukan who joined on March 10, 08, are relatively new peeps (To us). I remember when before Xero and most of the staff came on board, Ai was personally running this entire site himself. So bask in the glory of being one of the few mighty dinosaurs (Many of our fellow dinosaurs have "died out" over time) who still roam the grounds of this site~! Rawr~! ->

Although RL problems and responsibilities comes first and under normal circumstances alone may account for the recent drop in member activity, IMHO, it was the recent multiple Spam attacks that turned many peeps off from this site. However, it looks like things are starting to pick up most recently as the Spam has died down for now (We're not seeing pages of Spam threads like before, rather, only one or two Spam threads now and then but the mods are dealing with them in good order). Things will pick up - Just give it some time!
