Gawd. If my posts were able to result in the “shutting down” of anything much, I’d frankly be worried. Time constraints (a by-product of living; you know, as in the verb) limit my involvement in this to making bitchy posts about it. The only influence I could possibly have is by changing people who read my post’s minds about the issue. I don’t know about you, but I’m not predicting a major swing in poster opinion away from Lindsay’s GC Committee-endorsed feel-good charity appeal, towards Piz’s jaded outlook ;)

I suppose you can argue that something like BLcharity.net is a success simply if it exists for a while, and happens to distribute some food, and oh yeah, is run by pervs. Depends what the goals are, I suppose. Lindsay and Thetes️ ↗ both donÂ’t seem to think it was much of a success though. If IÂ’m being unrealistic about the goals of such an organisation, then so are the people running them!

And good luck with your “drastic things” which are afoot. It’s something like four years since I first found BC and started lurking there, eventually moving over to GC as well. I’ve heard murmurings about significant developments ‘behind the scenes’ plenty of times, but seldom has anything tangible become prominent, yet. It’s probably me not paying enough attention, but I’ve become pretty much desensitised to those sorts of claims. I’m hoping the success stories will come to light one day. Go and create one ;)
