Title: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: awesomeasapossum on October 24, 2006, 06:07:06 PM
Waiting there in Haven
Just me, Jafar, and Pacman
Scrolling like a raven
Looking for a new post-deader than a frying-pan
Feels like an eternity
The name of Part 3
Click a button? Type an E?
Pacman, Jafar, or me?
By the time I finish this
Someone will have posted
Poisonous snakes the do hiss
Something Cedric couldn't have boasted

Posting coming to a standstill?  :o Deloria and the gang are going to have to go on another spree.  :P

Well, I think it's time that I whip out my trusty Laptop and prepare for cut slips tomorrow... School I leave behind asunder, and TSL I embrace the future warmly.... Just kidding. I'm not prepared to ruin my Highschool record of perfect attendance, being on every merit list straight, good grades, and most of all, my connections to the teachers... But when full lunch comes around the corner tomorrow at 11 o clock, TSL here I come! Great poem by the way!

It wasn't really at a standstill. It was just me browsing the forums for like 15 minutes at 7:30 with NOBODY on. Then Jafar and Pacman showed up but at one point it didn't feel like we were posting a lot.

The forum does seem a bit empty now... I wish I had more people to talk to...  :'(

Woot. :D I unfortunately, can't. :-\ Texting takes precedence for the moment and I do have to stop posting soon. :P

Well, I am at home now with virtually no homework.... (And to think they say that in highschool the work load with increase ten fold... It's entirely false... I get significantly less hw if any than I did last year. I had at least three hours a night. Now I have at least a minute a night!) Anyway, I can stay on for a while!  ;D
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: awesomeasapossum on October 31, 2006, 05:18:52 AM
Perhaps they say that because even though the workload is less the work is harder.
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: dark-daventry on October 31, 2006, 05:25:52 AM
Perhaps. I had none last night, and probably won't have much tonight... XD

Post by: Deloria on November 05, 2006, 05:20:28 AM
Alright, no offense to anyone at all, but this is almost pathetic. :-\ There have barely been any posts at all this month (granted it's only the fifth, but still, it's reasonably less than before. :() I realize we're all busy with RL and whatnot, but I really do think there should be another spree before the forum becomes entirely neglected. :-\ I really don't mean to troll and realize that it's inconsiderate of me to expect that of all of you, but the forum really is dying. :-\ There were less than 100 posts one on day. :-\

I just realized that the day it was under 100 was the same day the site was down for the majority of the day. ::)

Oh. XD *didn't realize that* :P It's still been quieter than usual. :-\

I think the forum's definitely picked up since your post though, Deloria. Every time I come back there seem to be at least 3 new pages of posts  !!!
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: Deloria on November 07, 2006, 06:04:47 AM
Woot. :D I hope this isn't temporary. :)
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: dark-daventry on November 07, 2006, 09:53:37 AM
I hope so too! It would be horrible if this forum became neglected and then great news broke out with no one to post except the regulars... Like me....
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: Deloria on November 07, 2006, 02:07:57 PM
I don't think it can become neglected for very long, but it has been quiet. :-\
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: dark-daventry on November 08, 2006, 07:11:13 AM
Agreed. But still. A quiet forum is no fun at all. There would be no one to talk to. The only remaining posters are the regulars like Deloria, AAAP, Delling, Rosella, Dark-Daventry (myself...  ;D), and all the regulars. Oh well. It will probably increase someday... We'll see...
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: Rosella on November 09, 2006, 07:05:33 PM
Am I the only one who doesn't totally mind the lack of posts? XD Every time I get online, there are 3-4 pages of unread posts. :P I seriously value quality over quantity, and I think the posting rate is fine. XD
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: awesomeasapossum on November 10, 2006, 01:56:04 PM
I have another poem, as you've probably seen. It's in my sig. I too, appologize (sp? I know, it's pathetic!) for my lack of posting. It just seems like I don't have as much time anymore.
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: Deloria on December 16, 2006, 03:04:23 PM
It's okay. :) None of us are posting a great deal. :)

Well try to keep in mind November and December are slow months anyway due to the holidays.  This isn't something to be concerned.  Now if it was June and we were seeing this sort of activity (or lack thereof), I would be concerned.

So no worries... things will pick up again.  :)
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill

Is it summer yet? XP Posting would pick up then, I'm sure. :P

Yes it is... hence why I used months instead of seasons.  ;)

Summer? It's like worse than summer... XD

On a random note (after viewing oberonqa's profile), I've always wanted to live in Las Vegas. :D

Yeah. I really don't think posting is that slow. XD

Actually, posting has declined quite a bit if you look at the stat's page.

Well if you look at it, the posting is not that different from December of '04. You can't compare it to last year since that wasn't long after the game had been given the go-ahead from Vivendi, so you have to compare it to two years ago :)
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: Deloria on December 27, 2006, 03:35:56 PM
You also can't compare that now that much to then as the forum's a lot more active now.  :-\ If they're comparable, then posting really has declined a lot.
Title: Re: Poem about posting coming to a standstill
Post by: racx_00 on December 28, 2006, 03:51:36 AM
Alot of it last year was spam about Vivendi and stuff. :P
