Why have there been no Shelter threads in almost two months?

Huh?

Why?

To release threads, there must be threads.

What gul said. Until just this week, the last thread that was started in The Shelter was the one about Castle getting banned.

There are only two threads in there right now and I expect one will be released by the end of next week if not sooner. The other may take a little longer because the discussion isn't finished.

Fascinating. So you lot either

(a) negotiated the change in ownership within a week,
(b) didn't negotiate the change in ownership at all but just waited to see what would happen,
(c) negotiated the change in ownership on some other channel that won't get released.

All of which is fine, btw.

C

The rituals involved with leaving the Horsemen and bringing in a new member are secret. Not to mention would violate the pornography prohibition.

That's putting it mildly

All of this. The three Shelter threads are pretty much it, aside from a few pinned threads for leaves of absences and tracking possible spambots.

Oh, goodie. Is it about me? I did wait months and months to find out what folks were saying in the secret rooom but no thread was ever released. I feel so cheated.

Sorry, you're just not that interesting. We're trying to figure out why the software is prohibiting us from banning Packard.

Bump.

There is nothing to release. All that is there are some pinned threads about operational/procedural issues that, while not very active, continue to serve an occasional purpose.

Eliteforge!!

There is no rep war.

So basically we can conclude from this that all decisions are carried out via PM to avoid transparency (or the illusion of it).

You can but that won't make it true.
