Because membership and activity has been down more and more for the past 5 years.

Also, Denis doesn't give a shit, motherfucker is scheming, and dealin'

Close it. The site is run like Neopets or whatever other highly restrictive, infantile, asperger's friendly web pages out there. And that won't change because Denis is a stupid person with no interest in art or people. Exhibits A & B: Strata and Battou.

Aww, don't be so hard on them, one day you'll be happy, but both Strata and Battou will always work for FAC.

I have found myself asking the question: "why and how does this site stay running" Oh well...

The site gets money from advertising. This site could use some series-specific promotions directly from publishers.

Except the mainsite still looks depressing as hell.

What was that four-step process where step #2 is something about porn and step #4 is "PROFIT!" ?

Anyway, cstdenis doesn't disclose the financial details about FAC, but last I heard its adult counterpart was making decent money off its advertising while FAC . . . in the red, actually.

I for one am glad that FAC is still here, though all sites have their crazy politics I've always felt at home on this one.
My first account was back in '04 and up until this day, FAC is the only art site I have been warmly welcomed to and actually had people show interest in communicating with me and watching my work.
DeviantArt is cold and you have to be absolutely incredible to be known, and Sheezyart I found was full of creepers.
Anyhow, that's my opinion on it... it would be nice if we could do some cool updates to FAC, but I really hope it doesn't vanish into cyber space.

I guess the admins are just too lazy or have something else to do...
I personally would like to see some changes on this site and I am willing to help modify it, if my help is needed.

I don't mean to sound bitter, cold or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out.

Help me out. I honestly cannot figure out what "mandation" is supposed to be. Maintenance? Moderation?

Someone replace the logo on the mainsite already with the forum one. The old logo is ugly as hell.

Yes, I believe it's known as a "job". It consumes eight waking hours of the day, five days of the week.

I'm an administrator (developer, too!), and I am almost always available for contact by PM, email, or any of my other accounts. We really need to have a built-in staff roster page....
