That's an exaggeration if I ever heard one. No one's around? That sounds like an insult to those who are around.

I'm seeing lots of action tonight on Chit Chit including the Movie, Music and Sport's boards. I looked below and saw many members signed on.

There are about 13 or so threads currently active on main Chit Chat. By active, I mean they've had posts within the last hour. Add to that, the five Chit Chat subforums above, making it 18 active threads, and I think the place is hopping.

Hardly as dead as can be, with tumbleweeds blowing by.

I agree.
Only something like 7 or 8 members left. Compare that to the thousands who are registered and the hundreds who post regularly, and those few are a miniscule amount.

If this message board runs smoother without them, then I'm all for them leaving!

That's true. Nobody is indispensable. You can quit a job, a club, a website, anything. Your friends will miss you for a while, but sooner or later, you'll become a fond memory (or not so fond, depending on the circumstances).

Life goes on, with or without people who exit.

Well I'm sorry, and I didn't mean to be an ass hole about it, but half of your friends didn't leave. You noticed, but probably didn't think much about it. I wouldn't either if 10 people who I didn't talk to or didn't like decided to leave. So I felt like I was the only one left in my circle of friends, and it sucks. Not saying it's not their fault, because there were faults with both parties. But you'd feel the same way too if the situation was reversed. I only frequent this board and the random one. I usually don't go to any of the sub ones since my taste of music and sports are never talked about, so why bother?

I thought so. I was wondering why everyone just stopped posting all of a sudden. I went a few times and just never saw anyone posting. So I posted a topic today in hopes of maybe someone coming back.

Well that's a different story. I'm sorry you miss your friends, really. I was simply stating that the boards are not as dead as can be as you stated in your first post. The title of your thread was misleading, to me anyway. I think it's busy for a Wednesday night.

As much as some people would like to think SO will go under within a week without their presence, it's just not going to happen. If anything, I think it's heading in a peaceful direction. I'm in contact with many members who have expressed the same sentiment.

Basically the entire amount of new registrations and posts has dropped steadily all year (and even going back to 2003). You would not notice much difference if a handful of people just left. I think the boards have just become stagnant and reached their peek, I will probably just try and promote them more (of course word of mouth doesn't hurt either).. and maybe upgrade and give them a new look after Christmas. It's odd that traffic to my sites has not really dropped, it's just the message board traffic.

I found it completely hilarious that the mains one could never see what they were doing wrong. It's always someone else who is doing them wrong. Losers. And picking on 12yr olds by making fun of what they watch-that's always good for a laugh. :rolleyes: I know, I know. I have no room to talk when it comes to getting on people. But think about who I got on. The ones who were always starting **** with people. There are still a couple who are still here. But they seem to have calmed down too. As for me??? I'm just hangin' low checkin' out what's going on. Take care evryone!!

and last time i checked, 20% of the members here have never posted and 42% have less than 10 posts.
