I think you just need to stop promising updates before you've written the content for them.

Just because you're not updating as often as you used to, we're not going to form a mob and burn you at the stake.

*puts down torch* of course not!

Seriously though, Zeke things on this site could stop updating for a year and nobody here would care. We know things at this site take time, and that real life is hard and also takes time. Just a little "I'm alive!" update and we'll all be happy.

We love this site and what you do, Zeke. Thank-you.

^Well, we'd certainly care, but we'd understand that things in real life get in the way of what we want or ought to do. We wouldn't get angry or anything.

I agree with this. It would make the contributeing members more active because they would feel more involved, and it would (hopefuly) result in more content. But as far as what work would be distributed, i don't really know.

Mmm-hmm. Honestly, I (and I think anyone else who's ever attempted to run a site before) can understand how difficult it is to do anything at all. The fact that 5MV is so large and has so much content is inspiring, if anything. And so what if you coast sometimes? Doesn't everyone?

Like other people have said, I think we'd just be happy if you reminded us you were still around every now and then. You're the only one beating yourself up--it's not the end of the world if you don't have content up all the time.

And no one's going to turn rabid on you. Unless of course we all run out of pie.

Hm, I do seem to remember someone a while ago though. But you can just ignore them.
