echo! hardly anyone is online no more on these forums and its pretty dead is there something going on?
Well the forum can be a bit of an echo chamber. That and new users have a tendency of going against the usual flow, making harder to warrant staying when there isn't anyone to affirm your own ideas.
I seen it more dead. I never saw a reason not to chat on these forums. They are quieter than Planetside2, which is always a ****-storm in progress, and more populated than the Cups of Rage forum (the maker of this thread will know what I mean) I think it's comfortable, having a post every hour or 8 a day in any given subforum, but no more than 100. We still get some threads that are practically heated discussion over nagging, that generate 100 posts in that one thread the day of creation.
