Not going to lie. When I joined and before I left for vacation for 2 months, it was very easy to find links to great hits. Now it seems all conversation between users. I hope it doesn't stay this way.
I'm pretty much all about posting HIT's. I'm on during the day but I mostly try and keep quiet unless I have useful HIT information to share since a lot of people seem to share your sentiment. At least speaking from my short experience here though, personally, this forum has a very refreshing, casual, and helpful community, and I would hope the light hearted conversation doesn't stop, as long as it doesn't interfere too much.

I don't see why a few fun comments between people should bother you. Also, it's kind of hypocritical for you to say, when you are saying it instead of posting a hit, right? Have you shared any hits yet today? Point is, discussions are always had and welcome, as long as they don't consume the entire thread. They are almost always hit related as well.

I just got off a 12 hour shift and need a little extra money to provide for my family. It is frustrating to go back through the forums to find something that is worth doing. Sorry to be negative, but it not used to be this way and there was a lot of complaining about it before I left for vacation. Now that I have a job where I work 60 hours a week, it would be awesome if I could spend my time looking at it hits rather than where did your avatar comes from? I understand it is all is in good fun and nature, but there is a reason why there are a lot of people are lurking and not posting. If you look at my posting here, I have been very good at posting hits. The 6 thanks and undeserved criticism is kind of unwarranted.
You are clogging up the thread with your ranting. If it's not a hit, don't read it. It's not that difficult a concept. That's why you're getting criticism.

That's a script. Go to the forums home page and go to the script section. It'll be called "super export" I do believe.

I got in 101 trickling MedCrowds before their system crashed and I got the redirect loop error. Once before when this happened it came back up pretty quick. Edit: Back up now.
