Serious question: why is the org dead This can't be post 2016. I stopped checking in regularly around 2012.
Are there metrics for subscribers and traffic? I noticed a drop in posts around 2011 or so, and it's either gotten worse or at least hasn't improved. I as much as I'd like to blame some of the mods, many of whom I loathe, I don't think that explains the drop. It also can't be prince. Even my GD friends now on Facebook dig him still or even more since he passed. I expected a serious spike after his passing because there is no "official" site folks can go to. Where is everybody?

I've been casually stalking the site for the first time in a long while over the past couple of days. There's so few people I recognise on here now though that I don't think I can really get as involved as I once did. Maybe one day ![]() JaneyPoos used to be it... then they changed what it was. Now what I am isn't it and what is it is strange and frightening to me...

The Org has been itself throughout all the turmoil, Orgers come and go ... and even slightly increased traffic here just after Prince passed.
However, our FB page went from roughly 3,400 members to 26,000 or so in three days when he passed. Now, it's a little over 20,000, and this site consistently has traffic - just not as much as back in 2001 - 2007, (when this place was my world!). The problems with the avatars and photos have been noted, and it's all on ben, and when he gets time to do something. But, The Org will never die ... there's been safeguards installed to keep it alive long after we are gone .... 😲 |

It doesn't help that the site is built around old school technology. We are living in a world where the words "responsive" and "mobile" accompany any new website that is built today. I think it was a couple of months ago that for the first time in history the internet was accessed more through a mobile operating system like Android than desktop/laptop systems with Windows or OSX.
