If you think most of the people who come here are too new to the web to have never heard of freelanceswitch I'd love to know who you think this forum is actually for...? The way to attract new members certainly isn't to tell them that if they prefer anything else to it then they're not welcome.

Or is discussion of how to fix TFL's problems treachery now? Believe it or not, to make people care a rat's ass about a site the site needs to actually offer something, up until recently all TFL offered was frustrated admins trying to keep an abandoned site alive, increasing numbers of spambots, and declining numbers of sellers following massively declining numbers of reasonable offers.

Seriously, what's to be upset about if TFL did go down now? Loss of a lot of history and the final death of a still reasonable community, yes, but that's nothing unique to this site and the fact that the community has declined so much here means it's getting to the point where even that reason to miss it is questionable.

Hopefully TFL has good times ahead again. Unfortunately I really don't see much happening without there being an excellent, focused strategy with investment as to how to achieve it.
