This is a text I wrote one and a half years ago. I never managed to upload it to the site, because I could never access the server because all you lurkers and leechers used up too much bandwidth. So here is the text, and I still mean every word. Except the weblog: I no longer update it, because in 2 years only 1 person posted a comment. If you now decide you want to contribute, here is an example of what I need.
14. April 2003
So, this is it. This site is closed. I have tons of new material, a third(!!!) part of the page half ready to be published, but I decided to close this site and make it, and the other sites, only available for a few - very few - persons who are willing to contribute and to help with these sites.
To all of you lurkers and leechers: I warned you. Several times. See the forum (link deleted, forum no longer in use), the weblog and several other places here on this site. I don't know how many times I asked you to participate - help with stories, pictures, sounds (NOBODY!!! sent a sound!) and other things. There were so few replies (only one person sent me an email during the last two months!), and yet this site is always blocked because the traffic is so high.
So this is site. No more birth fetish site for the lurkers. The forum and the weblog will be left open for the time being. So maybe, if participation there increases, I might open this site again.
So, you lurkers: Do something about it! Stop enjoying the work OTHER PEOPLE did without being willing to participate and share. STOP expecting others to share THEIR ideas and their works, just be fair and share too!!!! How can it be so difficult?!? Write something in the forum, send comments in the weblog, send me an email and stop being lazy and selfish, then maybe this site will be opened again.
THANK YOU to those who participated, you know who you are - A., P., C., F., and who helped me most. You and I will continue to share our ideas and our material, but this time we will have no lurkers spoiling our fun by blocking the site with too much traffic. Thanks also to those who, at least sometimes, participated in our discussions in the forum, thanks to the one(!!!) single person who added a comment to the weblog (ONE comment in more than six months!!!!), and thanks to everybody who sent me an email - I answered you personally.
I am sorry to see this site go, but I am so angry and disappointed with the lack of participation, again and again, that I now decided to close this site so I can spare myself this anger. Don't even think about complaining - you could have helped it, and you know it. Go to the forum or to the weblog and just f*cking participate, maybe I might then think about opening this site again.
That's it for now. Sorry for this rant, sorry for this angry words, but it was about time.
Bye.
