Fenris,
Therefore my generalised statement. I know full well that those that are neither ignorant nor arrogant won't be rotting. Yourself as a prime example.
Unfortunately, from my point of view, a kind of dry rot has set in with and/or from the Elly et al side and the symptoms of that has verily filtered through to the site/s they manage. If one is sure of ones product (in this case website) and it indeed delivers what it promises, no amount of off-site linkage or indeed anything else on God's earth will lure away your loyal client (poster/viewer) base. I strongly suspect that dii.net admin/management are not that confident in their site (both in content, deliverables and stance) and therefore take any and all steps neccesary to not lose any clientelle, even to the detriment of those same clients.
I often compare dii.net to a rag-mag like People⢠magazine (having some truth among a lot of lies), whereas AB and LL are along the lines of scientific journals (some lies among a lot of truth). Which would you rather read?
