There are sig wars on the horizon, Spam is at a high, and complaints are on
the rise again... the fics are few, and the C&C rarer, and Zen is getting
nervous.

Worst of all, poor White Wolf seems to bummed to care anymore.  That seems
like a bad sign.

Or maybe it's all in Zen's head and he just needs to get some sleep.

Zen really really needs to know.

Sorry to take up your time.

Zen-  >_<

Sadly Zen, It would seem it is not in your head. I think WW is being ignored, and he is reacting in a perfectly normal, human way. I say that he tries, but no-one listens. My 'D' key is starting to wear out... I can't imagine what Wolf's looks like. I think that all of us (Wolf especially) needs a rest. Sparring, sniping, anything like that belongs in private mail. I can't tell the stories through the spam, and deleting it takes up time I could use to be reading the stories I was able to find. (My mail has no filter...) I recommended this list to one of my friends who likes reading fanfics. In the first week he decided there weren't enough stories or C&C and decided to unsub. I should have been paying closer attention before referring him. I may unsub myself soon. Not a threat, mind you... Just a cry for help.
