I understand that more than just xp was taken off, and wish the poll reflected that. However...
I have not had my experience (hey, pun!) using this site affected in the slightest bit since everything that got shut off, whatever it all may be. I clearly wasn't using and/or liking ANY of it, and the site's been zipping along faster than I can recall for at least the past half year or more, all while holding this increased traffic. That's amazing! Please never turn them back on!
Oh well, looks like the only way that will happen is if the site's traffic remains high indefinitely. Which would be awesome for the obvious reasons, aside from the forced pared down fuctionality I so have enjoyed.
