The long awaited update...

This has, unfortunately, been a long time coming. Sorry for keeping everyone in the dark.
Running this site has been great fun. I started it all quite a few years ago, back when I was 11, just as a small community for a few friends at school. Since then, it's grown and grown. We've had (excluding spam members and stuff) over 400 active members of the years, contributing greatly to the Mario Worker share site! and, at one time, keeping this place an active community.
Unfortunately, activity here has dwindled. Places on the site are broken. Nothing new's been added in a looooong long time. But I just can't find the time any more to keep everything running smoothly. If there are any major issues, I try and respond to them when I have some time to spare, but this is getting less and less.
As such, I will (hopefully soon) set aside a block of time to revamp the site as follows:
- Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Friend Code Sharing - scrap it. Was quite a flop anyway.
- Forum - scrap it. Only real use for it at the moment is announcements, so I'll make a basic page for that instead.
- GameStation - archive somewhere. Old PowerPoint games will be kept, JavaScript experiments to be thrown out. Not sure about application games, they were kinda rubbish.
- Messenger Plus! Live scripts - archive somewhere. Probably going to scrap DevTools.
- The Mario Worker share site! - move to a separate site. Hope to transfer accounts and login system, or simplify and build a new one (since the whole account/login system is currently done using the forum). Might have to drop some of the extra features (like rating and sorting), will see.
- The videoCINEMA - scrap it. All videos are hosted on YouTube anyway, so don't need a site to just link to everything.
- Vote-oriented Tally Engine - probably scrap it. VoTE was a nice experiment, but has little to no use.
Thanks to everyone who got the site up to where it is now. We couldn't have done it without you.

And this goes with other issues too. We're quite a small community, so you people need to speak out when something breaks.
