I think you make some really good points. For example, how many users are active bots is an excellent question. Furthermore, I have got young friends, who patiently waited to get activated, but feel the site is not user-friendly. Personally I enjoy using the site and have recently celebrated getting 200 followers. However, I work hard to get quality content out. So, I think we should definitely celebrate good news for the site. Down with Facebook lol!
