[QUOTE="GreedyGirl, post: 1590, member: 4"] This post burned me up. Unfortunately, Gaz had a way of making suppositions which were not borne of fact...and even more unfortunately, some members believed what she'd alleged. No one is playing anything??? Hardly. In the average day, we give away anywhere between $1 - 2k in prizes (that's actual casino cash). In the average month, between $35 - 60k. The truth of the matter is there is little difference in the number of members playing the games, from the point of when Bryan took the site over...and John had cut the cash prizes long before Bryan purchased the site (save but a couple cash prizes). What IS different is our overall traffic (those numbers ARE down) and the number of folks participating in the forum. With our traffic, much of this has to do with SEO (search engine optimization) as well as changing interests by the public at large. This is always something Bryan and I struggle with and we're determined to twist and tweak until we eventually get things right. As I've discussed so often over the past several months, forum participation is a tough one. We can beg and plead for folks to participate, but you know that old adage, 'you can bring a horse to water...'. Hopefully with time, we can get the participation up in the forum. This has been an ongoing issue, before, during and after TAG City. I wrote about this very issue in a recent newsletter, that being we have an abundance of members who enjoy the games at GG, but do nothing to help our bottom line. Were this a perfect world, all of our members would be contributing in one way or another, be it by depositing with our sponsoring/advertising casinos or spending time in chat or participating here in the forum. It's frustrating seeing a huge chunk of members simply playing the games...asking for handouts...and contributing nothing in return. At the same time, we've always had an open-door policy and I don't see this changing at any point. All we can hope is that the members I've been speaking of will come out of their shells and throw GG a bone by participating in one form or fashion. Ok...end of soap box rant. :puke: [/QUOTE]
