I'm mostly surprised that somebody is still footing the server bill.

Well that's because "there's more coming soon" -Winamp homepage 2014-2017

Winamp.com's download link points to forums.winamp.com
Which is radionomy's way of getting around the fact they still don't have any version they can officially offer for download.

Of course there'd be other ways but they'd mean work.

One could say this forum is undead.

as long as someone ( and who that is , I don't know) is paying the hosting bill
the forum is here, as soon as that person doesn't pay the bill anymore the forum is gone.

Somehow 'Undead', the forums have become a nest of SEO spam links.

They just can't let it die to the reputation it has in search engines, so it would be great to have active moderators running around and getting rid of those 'UK Essays' and stuff polluting the threads.

Where can we sign up for that? Where's Victhor? And Candela? And the scooter? WHAT DID THEY DOO TOO MEEEEEE??!!

Argh!

xD

Already complained about that in this thread, but it seems like no one can or will assign mod status to other people

Not will assign but can't assign , the one who could has jumped ship

and given the fact that only the admin can assign ......

I jumped a ship once.

It was a very small ship.

The one with the magic wand is Egg, but I don't see much of a point in housing new moderators if the forums are half dead. There isn't as much traffic as there used to be and instead of adding more mods would only get us to a point where there will be more mods than active users.. kind of ironically sad..

While I agree with your statement, I would at least like to see a little cleanup on the moderators, especially given that we have mods listed that haven't been active in years. It would be nice to see active mods listed in each subforum.

Though, maybe you're right, given the way things have been heading, there may not be much reason to manage this forum (versus an active development forum like wacup). Even I got over reporting the spam because I would notice the spam lingering around days after reporting it. I even started to just unsubscribe from threads that have a lot of spam posted. So maybe it's just a matter of time before this forums does actually become a spam forum.

keijo · 8th January 2018, 09:35

Let me disagree a little.
The SHOUTCast subforums are pretty much active, mainly because of Radionomy DNAS and the monetization program. Even though it's not what the entire forum used to be, seeing mods (old/new/whatever) cleaning up and engaging again in threads, nonsense, and sometimes helping out, would be a relief.

Nowadays some of us 'Newcomers' are lending a hand to our extent in the forums we visit the most, so how about capitalizing that?

Not that I want to start a revolution, but hey. Let's rock.

InCUbuS-94 · 13th January 2018, 12:11

So, what's with all this spam all over the forum? Do y'all miss pudijo that much so you're trying to replace him with this trash?

Also yes, forum is dead, recycle bin is where it's at.
