The problem seems to be on all story sites. Very few comments. I run a different story site
http://haircutstory.net and might get one or two comments for every 10 stoires.
I enjoy most of stories here, but dont often get time to comment - spend most of it removing adverts from my own board
on a change of subject - what ever happened to Androboy (David) - I heard he wasnt well - but nothing since - one of my favourite authors on the site

David suffered a seriously debilitating stroke in preparation for a kidney transplant. He had partially recovered and was able to return, albeit with some difficulty. He then simply disappeared a short while later. His health was very difficult at best, and we fear that he had another stroke or worse -we simply do not know, nor are we ever likely to at this point. And I fully agree, Androboy (David) was an excellent author that I enjoyed very much. Savor his series about the shiprats - though incomplete, it is massive and thrilling.

OK, I confess, maybe I am part of the problem - I don't post feedback for stories. I enjoy many of them, and others, well, maybe they just aren't my cup of tea. I don't really care to judge; I just enjoy reading. I will say this: Whether I truly like a story or not, I still appreciate the wide variety of ways different folks view the subject. That being said, my personal favorite penectomy stories involve guys who chop off their own cocks, and those that willingly give them up to women. In any case, to all you authors out there, rest assured that there are those of us that appreciate all your efforts. Looking forward to plenty of new penis-lopping stories soon...

I remember when I first joined this site was smokin hot there were alot of people on it and alot of stories got written frequently. I feel the main reason there has been a drop off in the interest and group is the fact that other than e-mail and chat people have no other means of reaching out and contacting each other. I remember when I first joined this site it had a personals add section for people wanting to reach out and I know this was an easier way for me to do it as well. I don't know anyone on here personaly and I am a bit skittish when it comes to meeting new people and just chatting with others I don't know. I know the personal adds section always made it easier I could place an add or review ones others had placed and I loved it but then it up and disappeared. People need to be able to feel comfortable no matter how they need to communicate and they need the options that make them feel safe. Yes this world is full of creeps and some might slip by but we do have freedom of speech on our side to a degree. If this site offered more options of communication and people feel more comfortable then they will participate if and when they can.

The old personals software crashed and burned. There really wasn't much left to recover, after the hack.
We do have someone writing a new personals section. However it will take as long as it takes. Since we're a free site and operate with the help of volunteers, we can't necessarily do things as fast as the for-pay sites do.
