I do see where you are coming from. However, I don't think this is worth being a bit pessimistic about. The players, as clear from this thread, are very much ready to take on an ambitious strike even if it means failure. I do believe power comes in numbers and as demonstrated here, everyone is ready to fight for what's really right because we are all tired. It sucks because I see this site as a comfort and I am a strong advocate for change, hence why I'm so active in this thread. I do think it's possible to achieve even more than what you had listed because he can't stop all of us when we have nothing to lose and he has a piece of income to lose.

Does anyone knows what he does? Like if he created other games or if he is working on something else? I think he lost is interest for bl and "have better things to do". Maybe he thinks it's not worth it to spend a lot of time taking care of things that wont give him much. This is just one more reason to give/sell the website to someone that really cares and it is interested in making this a better game.

We have nothing to lose, I think we should try even if we fail and even if that happens we need to keep trying.

I'm not sure but this does sound like a possibility. He's also notoriously known for being someone who's not very nice (trying to use civil language LOL) so it could also be he just really doesn't care about any of us no matter what. And again, like you said, that is exactly why this site should be handed off to someone else. I legitimately do not think anything will get to his head and fix these issues which is why someone else should take the task into their hands.

Exactly my thoughts. I don't know about you guys but I'm a very persistent person and I won't stop even if I fail most of the time. + there's so many of us who agree and just one of him.

He's a serial entrepreneur. Here's the site where all of his projects are listed - most of them are defunct. I think his main focus is his cafe. As for the question of other games, there was Bimboland's predecessor, Miss Bimbo, and another site, My Minx, which if i understand right, had similar elements to Miss Bimbo except with the feature of raising "trophy orphans."

Fun fact! His cafe actually saw some protests due to its colonist vibes.

If his main focus is his cafe, then I think Bimboland is just a side project and he lost his interest on it. That is why he doesn't listen, for him the cafe is more important.
