I found the site a few months ago, and strted reading most of the articles. I liked the idea of the site: a collection of writings about various games and assorted other nerdary. Coincidently, this was a round the time my existing forum community was falling apart, so I decided to join this one. I lurked the forums, decided that the people were interesting, and then registered and started posting, along with writing occasional reviews.
What I found was the biggest problem with the site is the lack of articles. Usually, there was about one a day, but sometimes there are several days with nothing new. Part of my joining was because I want to remedy this. It's a great site, but I felt (and feel) that I can add something to it. So far I've written three or so reviews, and I have a couple of ideas of some others I plan to write sometime soon.
I agree with the comments on needing more than reviews, but I see it this way. I am a new member to the community, and I'm still settling in and finding my place here. As such, I could write other things, but I see few of them posted, and so feel almost like they don't quite fit in. Entering an existing community, I don't want to be seen as trampling in and forcing you all to do things my way, but rather I want to meld to adapt to the existing community.
OK, I know that was a bit of a ramble, and had no actual flow to it, but it's my opinion on the matter.
