What's with Hungercity again?

I strongly suspect that every week the place is offline, a few more of the uploaders that were there will have found a new home. It will take months of continuous "uptime" before HC becomes more than a shadow of it's former self, imo.

As no mention of "fixing" fiscal issues and transparency have been mentioned, some uploaders will never return regardless of whether or not HC is able to stay online in a reliable manner.

That the forum may actually come back online after an even longer downtime is good news to me, as It will make it possible for me to delete my account there. I would just as soon not have my name associated with that place.

ymmv

I was being sarcastic I have no expectations what so ever

I have no expectations either, but when something nice is offered there, I'll be grabbing it and appreciating it.

The fate of all our donations springs to mind ..........................

I really wish he'd learn not to shout - it's doing my head in

I thought the fact that he's paid money for something that didn't deliver seemed to be an interesting new application of karma points, they may not be "instant', but they do seem to add up.

Not exactly karma - he paid with OPM (other people's money)

I agree.

Today's "NEW" still the same as reported earlier except for bearing today's date and a time of 12:40PM EST

The same holds true for Sacred Town?

Sacred Town is a stupid name. Almost as bad as Hunger City

Nevermind my previous post. I do get sexually excited about the crocodile at this time. Male or female......who cares? But I guess my judgement has been ruined after reading Vladimir Nabokov's "Lolita"......
Terrific book, Nabokov is a maestro when it comes to putting thoughts into words. One of the best writers of "our time" for sure.
The description of the child-molestors mind is so good that I even get sympathy for the guy and wish he succeeds in getting into her trousers.

I will not tolerate any attacks on me concerning this post of mine. My post is about the art of literature, not sex to young children in general
