Based on server logs Amiga.org has grown a lot since 2009 so your opinion while welcome is not accurate.
Yeah, because page hits are the definitive measure of site quality (and how many of those come from search bots driven by the relentless link-baiting, anyway?) Look around you - the site is down to maybe a dozen regularly active members from well over fifty when I joined, and a lot of that exodus was driven by exactly this kind of link-baiting nonsense and the ensuing flamewars.
A few posters are always quick to criticize the site but are unwilling to help make it better.
I'm more than willing to help. Give me access, and I'll clean up the garbage threads/forums and clear off the VigLink crap.
