The new website isn't live. I filed reports on bugs with the existing
site. You know - the one that every single visitor sees right now.
Speaking of "all talk", it seems to fit the description of the "new
website" quite well.

Great. It doesn't invalidate any existing bug or issue that has been
reported until it's live, as the issues exist right now.

Perhaps people lose interest in helping because when they raise
issues, they are rebuffed.
Would you spend your time helping someone that does not show any
interest in any issues raised?

Nobody asked me to help with anything - I simply started reporting
issues as I noticed them. And had someone simply said "great, thanks
for the reports - do you want to help with xyz?" I would have said
yes.

Your reaction to my reports is somewhat agressive. Do you enjoy
working with people like that?
