Apathy killed the media

This is sad. We write actual content and struggle to get more than 10 comments. By we I mean everyone who actually tries instead of resorting to kittens and boobs. Granted, not always Pulitzer material, but is has to beat an article that says "I need 25 comments for a mission". I don't need the mission since I actually like flashing exclamation marks in my Mission box to remind me that I play the game I want to play and not Plato's. So mine will eventually show up when the Mission Box expands or Plato puts a new spin on missions.

Different rant.

We didn't kill the media with categories.
We didn't kill the media with vote buying.
We didn't even kill the media by not writing articles. It didn't help, but who needs spam anyway?

We killed the media by not participating.

Apathy killed the media star.

Amandla, Awethu.
