Will there be an update to the software?Do archant care?[/quote]I thought the penny would''ve dropped by now. This is a little corner of the web where the natural dregs accumulate. And Archant keeps it open as a social experiment, ie a kind of online Big Brother thing. The only draw back with that is Mr P Mainwaring thinks he can vote people off the boards on his own.

Herman 9,586 Posted December 31, 2013 Does Archant make any money from it? Probably not. The large ads may help subsidise it but not enough to pay for a full time moderator. So I can''t see what they get out of it, bar a headache. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They frequently use it as part of stories they write, basically they are getting fans opinions for free, at the click of a button. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
