Not Leaving FA for now. But I can be contacted on Weasyl
12 years ago
General
After seeing the slew of journals on this subject. I may remind everyone who is following me that I have a Weasyl account at https://www.weasyl.com/~sawblade5 even though I am not very active there. I decided due to this slew it's a great time to update followers there. Even though I am not active there, the Private Message system will email me directly when you send me one so I can respond faster to those messages there than I can here on FA. So it's a better place to contact me at.
As for the situation. I looked into it and the part that upsets me the most is that another new UI that was shown off last month right before FA went down is dead when it was almost completed and this new one is starting from scratch and is pretty much only in it's alpha stages. So it will be a very long time before we see Phoenix get pushed if it even does at all. Who knows if we get to see that new UI or not. It depends on if everyone can get past the drama that has been hitting the site for the last couple of days.
Also for GFM Crash Space. I seem to have found a spot, unless I get 3 people looking for a room for Fri-Sun Also.

FA+

I don't see anything particularly broken with the site as it stands. Submissions, scraps, journals, shouts, notes, the ability to watch artists and favourite submissions, and a SFW mode. I really don't know what else one could add that'd dramatically improve upon the format.
