Maybe we're looking at this the wrong way. TV is becoming more mindless every day. People get off watching "reality shows" based around finding new ways to cram bunch of people together and get them to fight. Game shows give them vicarious thrills. Maybe that's what this site should be doing, to increase popularity.
Maybe what we need is more of these irate shouting-match threads! I can jump back into the piracy threads, and go for my Harlan Ellison merit badge trying to tick off as many people as possible whilst simultaneously providing evidence that I really am God. Others can get really creative with their emoticons and &#@!*$%#&^@!! characters. And maybe someone can come up with a new e-book format for us all to whine "e-Babel" about!
It'll be a blast... the newbies will eat it up!
