so...im a poll virgin, but here we go:
the story hour board here at ENW has always been one of my favourites. yet, IMO, the number of very good quality threads has been lessening for some time. now it appears that we're on life support.
a lot of the Big Names* that first attracted me to this corner of ENW have either ended their story hours, or update once per presidential election. not only does this upset readers (like myself), but i think it actually harms the numberless hordes of story hour authors trying to garner a bit of attention.
i know, i know - there are exceptions (one look no further than piratecat). but i claim this is the exception, not the rule.
* by way of example, im referring to piratecat, wulf ratbane, sepulchrave, destan, contact, capellan, old drew id, and jonrog1. these may not be your big names (and they may not be mine, personally), but they are the ones that seem to have/had garnered the most press/page views/posts/reader loyalty.
so there's my chicken dinner. how do you feel? and why?
