Sadly the decision has been taken to discontinue the (somewhat irregular) 'Feedback' column after more than a year on the air.

Hopping straight into its place is something wildly superior, however. Site News. This new blog - updated whenever the mood takes us - will keep you fully apprised of all the latest here at DS Towers.

And we have an exciting few months ahead: currently we're in the middle of a new staff expansion drive, hiring three new full-time staff to boost our entertainment and media content, three new forum moderators and a new technical bod. We're also preparing to move into our swanky new offices in central London. Swanky and plush, no less.

By the way, fans of remorseless put-downs need not worry: our sysad - and part-time Simon Cowell impersonator - James Welsh will be along every now and again to expose the most "creative" of messages sent in to our contact centre.
