No more new mixes on soulstrut?

I just tried to upload a new mix and realized the "Submit a mix" function has disappeared. I remember Raj to say some time ago, the mixes section swallowed a lot of space on the server but if the functionality is reduced to external links only, this shouldn't be the problem.
So, is it a bug, a timeout or shall there be no more new mixes on the site?
BTW, this is the one I was about to post:

Here is one I posted a couple of weeks ago: Super Soul Saturday Mix - Big Stacks I too found that I could not post it in the mix thread. Enjoy!!! I'll listen to yours some time this week. Thanks for posting it, as I really enjoy your mixes.
Peace,
Big Stacks from Kakalak
just started listening to your mix, sounds great so far. Robert Patterson Singers, yeah. I used to play that one a lot for a long time about 12 years ago and haven't heard it again since then. Funny enough, the situation you described, that made you record that very selection of songs sounds just like how it happened with my mix. One of the first really warm sundays of the year and I a lot of positive energy was set free. I found some late 60s til mid 70s soul would be the perfect vehicle to express this feeling. I even was about to call the mix "Soul Sunday" at the beginning. So I guess, this is a good exchange of mixes and moods.
Thanks for listening and appreciating my mixes. Makes me happy to hear that.
Keep on doing what you're doing.
Cheers Che
Still no info about the current state of the Soulstrut mixes section. Won't there be any new mixes? What has happened?
Did the proliferation of mixcloud/soundcloud, etc make it less special because the mixes are no longer exclusive to SoulStrut? I always assumed that having soulstrut mixes on those sites might help inform others about the existence of soulstrut; if the mixes had a link to the site, perhaps.
Has attendance increased?
I commend the "time capsule" tidyness of this decision.
The completest in me appreciates that I can now successfully listen to EVERY mix on Soul Strut!
:off_the_wall:
I dunno...doubt it. But I don't know if anyone has been posting links to SoulStrut in their mixcloud/soundcloud mix notes. Would've been a nice requiremen...if you wanted to post a mix to SS you'd have to link to the site via whatever tool you used. All a moot point now, I guess.
Like anything on the net today in this social media frenzied world, people got desensitized to the mix section. Posting a mix in 2005 was an event. Now it's like blahhh.
Signed... salty dude.
