Maybe it's me, but the forums seem quieter in the last couple of weeks.
My standard method of clicking "View New Posts" isn't bringing up as many topics as it used to. :think:

I don't know about others, but I'm just so busy lately. I never seem to have time to post anymore. Except now, but... ya know...

Same here. I think it's also a bit of a feedback loop. Several main people are too busy to post often, so fewer posts happen, so people don't have as much to respond to, and so then even fewer posts happen.

There is a certain ebb and flow to the forums. Summer times tends to slow down a little.

There should be a snarky line here involving Lord Foul, his age and relative maturity level. It should be balanced between levels of snark, humor and insult such that it is funny but does not indicate that the author has anything but fond feelings for Lord Foul. It should be obvious that the purpose of the line is to but humorous and not insulting and that Lord Foul is the subject of the joke largely because of his vast post count.

The line should be followed by the rim shot emoticon.
