"Perhaps if they bought another server."

"To me, maintaining these platforms isn't the same as improving them....it would be an improvement to keep them fixed to a reasonable standard. Members are still entitled to a maintence service whether this is a free service or not. I don't care about new features. As I have said before, I just want what we have got to be usable.
They boast they have millions of users...don't they mean anything. I know of schools who rely on these wikis...Doctors as well..its not all just kids role play and celebrities. Some celebrities and well known television shows have over 3,000 - 12,000 members who use wetpaint as their official site. These platforms are one of the best as they are set out for easy usage and wetpaint seems too silly to realize they are throwing away a valuable assest here. Not everything needs to be trendy. You can't even participate on the new forums that I can see. I find them boring and useless actually. Not to mention you can see and read all thats been said on other sites, u-tubes, televison shows and in magazines anyway. These old platforms have you involved, talking, teaching, creating, meeting new people and learning how to do a lot of things with computers. Whats not to like."

"Wholeheartedly agree. I will add one more point:

The Wiki is free but they make money from it. They provide a service as part of a three-way 'contract' - promoters get advertising by paying Wetpaint, Wetpaint gets revenue by hosting advertising and providing a wiki service to subscribers, and subscribers get a service from Wetpaint. Simple business model, but one of the keys to the regime is that Wetpaint provides the service.

Wetpaint is NOT providing the service. They get their money but they are not fulfilling the subscriber end of the deal.

I agree - I don't necessarily want service improvement (like dead simple time zone synching) but I do expect the system to work, and basic High Availability. "

"All of us can tweet ben elowitz and ask him on twitter why the millions of wetpaint wikis are going down the tubes.

PS He is calling on everyone to join a revolt against Google and the SEO problems. Maybe we can point out the mess in his own backyard. Here is his blog "Slaves Rise Up and Revolt", which is exactly what I am talking about.
