This website doesn't needs more "serious" crybaby writers like Kaos_King. It only needs traffic.
Here's a simple solution : put it back like it used to be.
Allow anonymous comments (Random Joe) and remove email confirmations for registering.
You'll get alters, but also newcomers.
That is all, carry on.

You should listen to forthewin, Jack.
He just taught you how the internets work.

I still remember back in 2004-05, when many morons insisted that Shlongy was an alter.
__________________________________________________________
That is because it was and is so hard to imagine such a giant asshole could actualy exist. Most people had to assume that the inane comments you spewed would only be that of someone hiding behind an alter. Shlongy is not an alter kids... He is a giant asshole...with a 3" shlongy.

You have 3 full inches? I wish I had that. also.. I'm glad summer's over and those guys at the beach won't have a chance to kick sand in my face anymore. But it's okay. I'll get even one day. Remember 'Carrie' at the prom? I'm gonna make that look like a Sunday picnic full of family fun!

find some way to get it off the net filters. No one I know can get on the site from work anymore. that's really killing traffic to the site.

That's pretty funny considering that Caul, no1, and Method, among others, screamed like little girls to stir the shit.
And if I'm so owned... where's the PROOF?
Method? Caul? It's been what, two years? Still waiting to see it.

Dude, I don't really know you, or follow anything you do here, so I'm only saying this based on the comments you're making.
This is Ubersite. When someone takes Ubersite too seriously (in this case you), everyone here starts trying their hardest to get Captain Serious's panties all twisted, because it's so hilariously easy.
I feel like the situation could have been dealt with easily enough if you simply stopped whining like a little bitch. But yet, however many YEARS later, you still get riled up about it, which is probably why you were targeted in the first place, whether you cheated or not.

why me? i don't remember stirring shit. i wasn't on Uber for a good while when that happened. i learned later that it's been established that you cheated. i'm merely relaying information. and was no1hasdis even a user here back then? i'm not sure.
and cat jokes aren't a distraction, jack. they are complementary since only a man living with that many cats would cheat at a writing contest on some obscure forum. tu comprends?

Force people to have only ONE account - that will cut down on (some) of the stupidity.
//////
Oscar Wilde says: "Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth."
So, I disagree, so long as those masks are not abused, or worn by abusive people.
And think about it, everyone here, everyone, is an alter of their actual selves/names. I am friends with only one Ubersite person who uses their real name here, and they also uses an alter, at times, and does not misuse that alter in the least—quite the opposite in fact. Something to think about. Although I see your point.

it's not about content.
it's only about traffic.
click on "Advanced" for the "go to" feature and pick any date. any date whatsoever, and you will notice that the front page is loaded with shit posts and alters. this site was pretty pathetic in its early days. then at the peak of its traffic, you had a lot of shit but a lot of good stuff too.
-----
perhaps, but at least the alters were few, and entertaining...remember Fat Tony?
Then you had a bunch of gingertards create several hundred alerts, even using foreign IPs, just to flame people - no one (well no noob) is going to stick around after that.
We used to have lots of entertaining people come around here, but who wants to hang around in a place where 90% of the traffic is generated by 2% of the losers?
Even Rob Berg decided to go get a life...ROB BERG, PEOPLE!!!!!

The huge amount of alters is one of the main reason why this place has gone downhill.
You'd have certain individuals creating 30...40 accounts just to spam, or talk shit, or just be generally unentertaining.

Jack McCallum and the case of the Ubermadness cheat.
~This was an interesting thing. A lot of people truly enjoyed UM but then again an equal amount didn't and were very vocal about it. Still, UM did inspire a lot of talented folks here to step up to their keyboards and create. Unfortunately, this noble contest died a very undignified death over the issue of whether Jack McCallum cheated with horse87 (?) or not. The people in the know, or who CLAIMED to be in the know went around saying that they had "proof" but refused to share it with the rest of Uber so that the rest of us could make our own decisions. Thus one more Uber institution bit the dust.

There's nothing worse than watching a fat man weep.
~A lot of people trolled Jaypeg to get a reaction out of him (which he gave consistently). Finally it got too much for him and he melted down completely and left for good. Then the same folks who were trolling him whinged and complained that he wasn't around to pick on.
Attention whores-R-Us
~Urbane posted daily attention whorings until the fateful day when...well, you know what happened there. Whether you liked her or hated her, her posts did seem to attract heat whether it was AJ and Apollo fighting with her, or desperate souls commenting on her boobs.

I don't like contests so I'm going to shit on yours.
~In the epitome of irony, amidst the mumbling and grumbling about how there's nothing new or interesting to read, contests like Gruberfest and Hatemadness are set upon by (probably) the same people whinging and bitching. During these smaller contests, you'll see the alters come out of the woodwork, revitalized trolling, and heaps of negativity. Whether or not you like Uber contests, acting like an asshole to the participants is like gate crashing a party then complaining that the host didn't think to buy your favorite brand of chips (crisps).
I'm so desperately bored that I'm going to troll at random.
~You get bored. I get bored. We all get bored. Sometimes when someone gets bored enough, they go trolling, which all in all is like...meh whatever. What makes this a problem, is when they select somebody who honestly contributes worthwhile posts. For instance, someone trolled Nate (w_t_a_y_s_t_r_m) for no apparent reason except to tell him he sucked. Nate asked honestly why but the troll just continued to -2 bomb him with no explanation. Nate's still around but it's just this kind of bullshit that makes some of the worthwhile posts go "eh fuck it."
Lack of really awesome shenanigans.
~Yes, Method was a champion at this. But even he got bored enough and fucked off. You still see him once in a while, but Elvis is spotted more than he is.
The invasion of the wiggers and roid-ragers.

Add more ham.
Not quite sure how it will work in this situation, but with most things in life that's the best route to improvement.
Omellettes, sandwiches, music, pizzas, farms, films, sex, art, salads all improved by an increase of ham.
I made a chart to prove it. And that isn't opinion. It's fact.

I like being trashed on here. It's why I come, because people are honest and yet I can walk on the street without anyone knowing me. I think sometimes this just takes to much effort. If you want people to like your stuff you need to proof read and make sure it's funny and who can be bothered with that.

and people don't really read what others say when you have over a hundred friends.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right.
Facebook/Myspace/Twitterers are too busy flooding the e-waves with their own mundane drivel to give two fucks for what anyone else has to say*.
"Listening 2 dat new Missy Elliot Song!"
"Eating soup!"
"Go Vikes woo!"
"Just had a really satisfying BM!"
Yet they continue blatheting into the void.
Why? Because they honestly believe that the 250 "friends" on their superwall, along with the rest of the internet public, see them as an e-celebrity. That they'll walk into a bar one day and hear someone say:
"Wow, that's Buttfuck Bob, everybody!! He had a really satisfying BM!"
When you get down to it, all those sites are elaborately crafted lies. Which uber ain't. You can't take your words back. The interface sucks. There's no convenient way to ignore the annoying fuckers around you The site doesn't fellate your ego in any way... fuck, it's too much like real life for the webz.
Which is why it'll always be appletalk to the popular sites' tcp/ip. B-Dalton to their Amazon. Opening things up a little might allow a little fresh blood in... but it's just going to stagnate. This place is the past; it's the logical next step from a mid-90's BBS. If it doesn't change, you got to expect it to die a little.
And while it still has traffic, so does this: http://www.nerolarp.com/index.htm
* The exception being if you're a train wreck. People spend hours combingfacebook for those.

its a lost cause. a relic from a bygone era of internet. it was a different-ish sort of place that has been meme'd into being just like everywhere else (see the picture you added). the points you raise are valid, but now trolls outnumber everyone else on the internet, so to remove the locks on the site would just see it turning into a less busy (and therefore less relevant) /b/, CP and all. plus the second one of the unstable losers on this site (and it has its fair share) gets their widdle noses inevitably out of joint, they'll do something to fuck the site over, and is fixing it in this eventuality really worth the effort for bart?
on second thought, given that it is a lost cause, bart may as well just make it as open slather as possible, give a handful of people mod status so any CP can be deleted in a timely fashion, and really see where the 'social experiment' goes.

Uber's had its day. It's a 90's-era BBS in a world of Facebooks, Twitters, and Myspaces. People can now get all the TMI they need in crunchy wordbytes and blurry camwhores. They can throw temper tantrums, spout their benighted views, break up and make up, all on pages that make them feel like the fucking universe revolves around them. Let it go.

Invite more pseudo-French faggots to piss and moan and talk about all the money they have without backing it up with pictures of their couple-a-bucks-fucks bar skanks and worse-taste-than-Elvis family rooms like Shlongy does.

poly, i've mentionned that before too (facebook, youtube, etc...)
i don't think we need an edit function. every single board has that already.
what makes ubersite fun is its simplicity. it's just plain text and posting is quick...except when you want to register or leave a comment as a newcomer.

I was actually thinking about this the other day. I don't think it's the lack of Random Joes or flexibility in account creation. I think honestly there aren't that many people that want to join Ubersite.
Facebook has taken over the world. The normal people that used to come here for a glimpse at others' depravity now do all that over at Facebook- with pictures as a bonus. People have very public meltdowns all the time, without ever thinking to come by here and say, "Krissi- I don't love you and I never will. Sorry." That's what the community (a good portion of it) fed off of. It was the stuff of parody, the stuff of legend; and now they can get it in their "News Feed."
I think one thing that would help numbers is the ability of users here to edit their own content after submission, or even removing a post. I still feel post removal should only occur in the most extreme circumstances, but I think if people know there's a capacity for it, they'll come back to being as open as Urbane's legs again.

you'd have to have some limit to that Caul or dipshits would spam the front page until all that remains is their posts.

Also, don't remove negatively rated posts.....some of the shittiest posts used to be the funnest ones to hang out on all day.

yeah, that too.
while you're at it, don't remove posts from the same user from the front page. if someone wants to post ten times a day...it can't be worse than seeing the same posts for three days.

Amen to the traffic.
I stopped even looking in because there was never anything new up. Then I realised I was being a hypocritical cunt and started posting again. Drivel it maybe, but Hell, it's a start.
