Did everyone leave the board? Where did they go?
There were no lame posters, there were no fights, people just stopped posting over the last few years.
What happened? If people "just got lives", it's not like the board takes long. Just pop it up for 5 or 10 minutes a few times a day.
It's no fun.

grumpy gillis ran them all off.
but i think for the most part the novelty of it wore off and as more people left it got less interesting to the people who were still here. or other boards were started that they preferred for whatever reason. but really, you're asking the wrong people because we're still here posting.

I think a lot of people got turned off by the drama from days gone by, so they moved on. Ironically, without the drama, it gets too quiet, so maybe those people who remained just move on elsewhere also (to another board, or none at all - real life, maybe).
At least, that's how I see it.

It's no fun. i blame you. seriously.
i wont go into the reasons in full but i think you were the ringleader for an atmosphere that took alot of the fun out of this place.
i continue to hang around strictly to read goatweed's and danked's posts.
and the slim hope that drusilla will post a pic of her boobs.
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

We started out with like 40 regular posters, 2 and a half years later we have like 20. It's a better % turnover than most boards
