I would go as far as to say that VLS is in a real slump and is not worth reviving.
Mind you, most of us, as in users from pre-2002/2003, have outgrown RS. I still come on, lurk, troll, post racist shit, get banned, and tell Armind to STFU non-stop, but there is no longer an appeal to me.
Mega threads like the Craigslist cheap deals thread is exhausting and a dick swinging contest. I enjoy reading Timpo's threads more, but even he doesn't post as much. The Like and Thank system really ruined it for me. I find that it doesn't encourage posting, trolling, and Internet fights. That's what made Revscene what it was! There are days where I look forward to getting banned and brought back again (time after time) to stir the pot, but general consensus gets all PC and tree-hugger hippy.
Revscene has gotten soft over the years. RIP Revscene.
