Richie, funny you should say that, it took a long time for this to come up to comment on. It is discourasging but not the only thing Active Rain ownership is not tending to.

I stay through it all if it is AR because it has SEO value and it has community value and great business value. Most of my peeps are here.

Yes Richie, it's the hassle factor involved. Sometimes it's the internet connection also & then the whole thing just becomes unbearable.

Hi Richie Alan Naggar 

     Debe Maxwell, CRS is presently serving as a Super Ambassador.  Perhaps she can bring this to the attention of the Powers That Be.

       You may have also read the encouraging words from Debbie Reynolds who spoke face to face with Ben recently.

        Don't throw in the towel yet.   There is a lot going on behind the curtain;  AR may be on the verge of rolling out a new and dramatically improved platform.

Yes.  There are enough other things in life that suck my time and cause me to lose focus.  I will find more productive things to spend my time when that happens.
