Why is TFS so much quieter these days. I joined back in 08 and in my first year (2009) TFS had over a million posts. I think this year its going to struggle to make half that. Is it because the god squad and Obama haters have squeezed out the carefree postings that I came to love (such as a whole thread on whether men could function with boobs, answer, no we couldn't) and invaded my home page.
Also I always wonder were all the new members go. According to the stats 421 people signed up recently yet its always the same characters on here (not thats a bad thing, I actually internet "like" some of you guys), why to people bother signing up if they are not going to post then bugger off, tying up usernames. | |

| The entire internet has pretty much become this way.
I gave up and wrote it off as mass assimilation. |

| I'm fairly new here but I think you may be right. I try to stay away from the religious forum and the obama thing is really getting OLD! Quizzes are fun and but there are a few here that I like to banter with. I hope I can include you with the 'banterers'! |

i know it sucks and they seem to be replaced by extremists. i know tdave and ko etc could be a pain in the a** but at least they didnt take themselves to seriously and all the others that left before they even arrived |

| ino i disappeared for a couple of years but im glad im back but it is so much quieter now than it was then. and i think face-book and twitter is the problem
but i think its nice coming on here and giving your opinions and asking for advice as i think its easier asking for advice of strangers than people you no |

Administrator | The 50 billion threads on the same thing (religion Obama and sometimes Obama's religion) all get annoying, unless your one of the few that is hanging on every word.
Though if more other people posted other stuff that would get attention too.
Someone just needs to make the effort at making a new thread topic. Its hard though, sometimes I want to to talk or read about something different, but coming up with something sometimes leaves me stumped. |

Also people tend to ruin new threads with nonsense like every thread is their own personal (or group of persons) "pointless banter" thread. While those can be fun, they get tired.
Anyway, not that anyone cars, but i'm really busy with work so I don't post much because I can't find the time. |

| Tino said it was Facebook, so there you go. I'm not going to leave this place, as I do love it here, but things happen where I get too busy at times, or there just isn't much going on in terms of discussion, so I may not post as much. But, as far as TFS itself, there really isn't any reason to leave it, as I like the format and love the people on here, including a few that I've already made pretty good friends with outside of here. |

Yeah, that derailing stuff is fun if you are in on it in the moment, but if you read it later, it's more annoying and just frustrating, like I clicked that for this.
Yeah that's the thing for me too, work has been busy and while I can refresh often enough for mod purposes, it doesn't leave me a lot of time to actually read or write a lot on the rest of the board. |

| I don't know why people do that. It's careless... Stupid, and crazy. |
