Hi guys, I am still around, and still able to reached via Facebook, email (you'll have to use my personal email for that.. it's listed as my gtalk name on my profile, please add in that it's MOTL related). I'm also on twitter. My AIM and other names are also in my profile. Although with having to redo my computer, I still have to redownload trillian.

I still love this site and it's people, but it's very hard for me to watch it die as it is. Myself, along with many others, put in a lot of hard work and to see it going so far downhill is a major blow.

Love you guys.

Thanks,
Jazaray

Man, slightly depressing to log into my account and post after reading this thread.

I actually think I enjoyed the non-MTG part of MOTL the most. With my wife having a kid in 2013, and a new job that requires lots of traveling and dedication (which is why I can appreciate Leshrac's absence as I'm in the sam boat as he is...though he is arguably doing much better than I am it appears).

What happened to OGB, MeddlingMage, Hilikus, etc?

Busy, as mentioned above. I see all the werewolf and mafia games died down, not seen Liq or MM post in any of the threads I've perused yet. Was reminiscing about the old games for some reason (probably as I do nothing but work, chores, and take care of the kid). Not that I would have the time to play them, but just thinking about them was fun!

Yeah the mafia game hasn't run in forever. I saw MM a day or two ago post, no Liq as far as I've seen.

The admin works right across the street from my old office.

Something tells me he would not be happy if I showed up at the front door.

It would make me very happy...especially if you filmed it and posted it.

He has made it fairly clear that he has no interest in this website but for whatever reason does not want to sell it. At best he might politely talk with you for a while. At worst he might kick you out of his office and call the cops on you for harassing him.

You'd think the old saying of " money talks bull**** walks" could apply with him. Say, for example, someone goes into the office of his, offers an amount of, 11k for his site, you'd think he would at least consider. And/or considering listening to offers.

Obviously the site generates revenue without him doing anything.

I dont see how this site generates anything. There is no real ad banner and I would not even think of shopping at his store with the way he treats this place. If Eddie is still in control, I really doubt money is the issue. Being a federal trial lawyer now along with owning a wildly successful shop makes me think money is not a thing with him...

Edit: Even the ad banner to his own site doesnt work. so yeah, no money being generated here..

It's easier for me to accept the fact that he has no interest in doing anything to support the site if I think he must be making something doing nothing. To think otherwise just frustrates.

I'm still alive, just busy with other things. I am almost never on a screen larger than my cell phone except at work, where I am pretty busy these days. I'll try to be better about popping on from time to time, but I just don't have as much time as I used to.

I'm pretty sure that I'd get killed by my coworkers if I tried at this point. They've decided to not replace the Systems Manager for the foreseeable future, so we're already barely keeping things running. Gotta love politicians trying to make business decisions.

Ain't that the truth. Sounds like you could be in a position to demand something. Like more internet time

This. If they have to have you around seems you're in a good position to ask for accommodations.

You'd think that, but thanks to the union, that's not remotely an option. These are the same people who insisted on continuing furlough days when management and non-represented employees opted to cancel the agreement and work those days. There's no way that it could come back to bite us when in the middle of contract negotiations we show management that we have too many employees and can take time off while management works without us. Also, I'm way too busy to MOTL at work.
