This is ATRL's One of the Boys era.
Hit or miss success (in loading pages ) but will soon be followed by its own Teenage Dream era.

This thread may seem messy, but I honestly agree with you, but it peaked awhile ago, it seems.
ATRL now has traffic like never before, and the bottom line is that if they don't get a huge donation that will hold them off for awhile with maintenance, raise money a new way, etc, the site will be like this forever, and eventually become a ghost town. The rules are getting more strict each day, yet the usability of the site isn't reflecting the professional attitude of the Admins and Mods.
They have stuck themselves in a dead lock of becoming more strict or losing ads, which still doesn't make sense considering we have a filter AND have a list of things we can't discuss, but they still are struggling. It isn't adding up.
