What happened to Kinsaki?!
 
Hi all, I just remembered that I had an account on Kinsaki.com. I was a semi-oldbie on the site, but had not posted on the site since 2012 (sounds like a super long hiatus, but I actually forgot the URL for the website until today).

I was shocked to see what happened to the site. I was the only one online, and the forums were overrun by spam and advertisement posts. The whole place seemed abandoned *shudders*

I'm browsing the site now to try to figure out how this came to be...but would anyone who knows what happened be able to explain? :( The site is still up and running like always, but there are no recent announcements or anything that explain the situation.

Thank you.

hummy: llonka: I saw you two on the site, hope you don't mind if I ping you!

I'm not sure, it was going good for awhile but then all of a sudden people stopped logging on and I think the admin left.

It's been awhile since I've tried to log on...

Apparently there were some bitter disputes between the site staff and the site owner, and basically everyone quit. (This happened over a year ago.) From the way the staff explain it, it sounds like the owner was being disrespectful towards them, and made unreasonable demands when they tried to negotiate a change of ownership.

I don't know anything about the Kinsaki staff or owner, so I have to take this all with some salt, but that is the only available explanation for what happened.

That's too bad. It was really starting to come around too!

Thank you all for the replies and information. That's a sad story. It all must have happened during my two-and-a-half-year hiatus. Hoping everyone can settle their differences, but if not, I guess it might be for the better at the present moment. The avatars and community on there were nice, though. Glad to see former members here ^_^

I was wondering what happened too. There were a handful of people who were trying to hang on, but even they couldn't cope with all the spam and lack of updates. As far as I can see, Kinsaki is a ghost town littered with spam and advertisements.
