It's possible that Tony is really busy,and I can't blame him.
He is also the only person who runs this site so....
Not much can be helped.
I think it might be the right time to start hiring some people.
Upgrade the front page news system as well, to something like CuteNews so new recruits can have easier access to update the news.
If you want a good site, having only one person run it or update it doesn't necessarily cut it.
I know a few guys who might be willing to help.
