Message 110430 - Posted: 12 May 2005, 10:58:13 UTC

Hey all,

I've been noticing a trend. A disturbing trend. A trend which I fear might not just be my imagination. My GOD... what if it's actually happening. It certain seems so.

Is it just me, or does the quantity of posts on these "Boards" seem to be tapering off to nearly zero???

Have our answers to questions been so perfect and enduring that we're not needed anymore....(sobbing quietly). Is the transfer of users from Classic to Boinc OVER, but we don't know it yet??? (fears building) Have we harped too often about "looking it up for themselves"? Did they really listen? Do people really enjoy the newly risen SUN and temperatures to the point where, the just can't sit behind a keyboard like normal?

Lord,,,,tell me it ain't so.

[sarcastic mode on]
Just install 4.39 and have a look at the number crunching forum and you have plenty of posts to read and answer and plenty of causes to post yourself. Additionally we have the weekend approaching, you know what that means...

In this mood: Have a happy Whitsun / Pentecost ;)

You should add, that we all know those complaints will be coming because we complained about the very same things . . .

The only way your dad would know that story is if he was the guy.

Hmm...I wish I had something positive and interesting to contribute to help alleviate the problem. Alas, I have not.

I've observed the exact opposite: There are too many threads.

My guess is that as the amount of BS threads increase, the desire to
participate decreases, much in the way that as the number of TV channels
one can see increases, the less there is worth watching.
