I'm sure the masses are still reading occasionally. As less is posted less is
posted then less is posted.
The big flamewars of early '02 has ended and that is a good thing. I think
Lugnet has become a more firendly place again. I sure hope it stays that way.
Perhaps summer (or winter depending on your preferences) has given people more
distance on things. Also, due to the economy dropping globally perhaps people
focus less on their hobbies and more on work and life in general?
June to August is always a tad on the slow side here on Lugnet but it usually
picks up around October, November. Perhaps it's more December-January this time.
Perhaps they're all busy waiting for and building their Imperial Star
Destroyers?
