I have been here for a good while, originally OzarkMoutainGoat. I don't comment much anymore, I just lurk. This site is basically dead, it has been so for a while. It was dead from get-go. The admin hates the user base and a substantial subsection of the user base goes way out of their way to be unpalatable to anyone but the initiated.
I've been here since WhoaVerse (different account, obv). I can't confirm anything about @puttitout (or @atko) hating the userbase, but it wouldn't surprise me. I will agree that the site's dead.
This site is to reddit what 8ch is to 4chan - an uglier, less friendly, less up-to-date cousin.
I check the site once or twice a week, since that's all the front page really changes. Usually, it's all just some variation of the same shit I remember seeing on the old /r/niggers back in 2011 (there haven't been any new Tyrone comics since '13, FYI), or something that was on 4/8chan last week or a few days ago, or reddit this morning, or pictures ripped from imgur's yesterday's front page, or some stale shit from 2014 that @some_guy_in_ri resized and hosted on his blogspot.
It's too bad. The site could have been something, and seemed like it came really close a couple times. Stale content never helps, but the reddit-reject userbase combined with the owner's counterproductive and downright bizarre opposition to using standard methods of funding the site (donations, merchandizing, investors, etc.) also aren't much help in growing the site.

It'll completely die eventually.
