"Is anybody out there?"... Hi im looking for a role in acting, can you help? =0)

I really can't speak to all of this. I'm just one of the constituents, like you. If you have complaints about the site is run, use the feedback link. Secondly, and some people perhaps don't realise this: but if you register to the site, you can actually choose what to see on the site and what not. For instance, I turn off the 'auditions' module, which shows the latest auditions postings. I'm not an actor, so I don't care to see this particular thing. On the other hand, I do have the module for 'bookmarks' turned on, which provides me quick links to the pages I use the most.... The site is designed to be flexible, more than organisational. 'You say, "But you can't force people to do things a certain way, and no matter how the site is set up, people will either find ways to do things differently, or simply ignore the methods." However, if the organisation of the site is optimised, you minimise the anarchy.' Actually I can very much refute this. I work for a website, and we created a very structured functionality (I was part of the creating team). Every day since launching the site, we receive regular emails from people who can't figure out how to use the site. Some people simply don't bother to learn, others simply don't bother using the Help button, and yet others will simply give up using the site after a few minutes because they can't work it out... Structure doesn't change the fact that different people use sites in different ways and for different purposes, and eventually someone comes along with a different perspective of how it should all work. All theories are relevant, but not all are practical to the overall purposes of the site. You really CAN'T force people to use it a certain way, no matter how it's set up. If you could, my day job would be ten times easier. Again, I can't really agree or disagree. There are many things I'd love to see on this site, and things I wish were better. But it's not in my hands, and the person who runs this site spends a lot of time making improvements. "Another side of the problem is that some people posting audtions are clueless" I suspect this is the source of most of the issues on this site. There are too many people who post cluelessly. See my blog on interesting stats! ... I should add that us regulars do our very best to try to improve things; leaving advice for people... If you're sick of how things are, why not add to the FAQ? As for marginalised, you'll find this site ranks in the top 10 sites in Australia and is turning 10 next year - hardly going to die out any time soon. Lastly, the nature of this site perhaps better reflects the nature of the industry. Chaotic, messy, and overflooded with interest.
