If you read menewsha's little comic I'm sure you'll see why  there was a bit of an "incident"

Ooooh, yeah, they have a comic? NEAT. Um, not that I probably couldn't find it myself, but where should I look for it? XD

Afford? As in, the artist got paid or do you mean something else? It's a shame though, it's looking real good!

Yeah, menewsha didn't have a big enough income 
All of the staff (to my knowledge) minus the pixel artist are volunteer.

Aaaah, that kind of sucks I guess. Too bad the income wasn't enough in the end. But perhaps it will be, one day. :)

Yeah? That's nice. ^^ Is it the original owner or has Menewsha been taken over by someone else? I joined back when it was first staring out. ^^

Mmmm, I thought so hehe. That is kind of sad, yet kind of nice, I think? Development has never been completely dead then, I suppose. ^^ It would be awesome to start a site like this on one's own one day.

It would be yeah, but avatar sites like this aren't very popular anymore. Menewsha would need a very big upgrade to appeal to modern popularity requirements

Mm, I know what you mean. Just look at Gaia and all the stuff they have. x_x Then again, Gaia scared me off, since it's so huuuuuge nowadays. I wonder what kind of sites are popular though? (I feel old now. x_x)

Well, even they are suffering (though a lot of it is their own undoing)
I don't know what's popular... I mean... I think it's social networking now? Or... something...?

Mmmyeah, I guess you're right... :/
Hmmm. Tumblr comes to mind when you mention that. Before that, it was Twitter, I think?

Ah yeah... reddit as well from what I've heard.
Now if virtual reality came out... now that would be cool

Aaah right, Reddit. Nightmare to navigate, if I'm not mistaken. Haven't been there for quite some time though, so things might've changed....
Ooooh yeah! :D

Maybe with the occulus rift and all that coming out maybe in 10 years mene can be a virtual reality :D
(Okay it'd probably cost hundreds of thousands of dollars but one can dream)
Hard to navigate? Hmm... wouldn't know... I only ever end up there via google

Dreams are good. XD Who knows, right? XP
Haha, I see, I see! :D I joined Gaia a couple of times, like ten years ago, I think? I thought it was overwhelming even back then...

It is a bit overwhelming huh? But imagine taking away all the "bumps" how much slower that site would be

That is very true. It would also be a lot easier to have conversation...
I always hated trying to talk to people through bumps...

I'd want to be there to watch the mass hysteria when people can't bump for their 5 gold
