Is everyone on holiday or something? I thought we were one of the

Maybe we get most of our conversations at the fests now? Certainly it seemed a
lot busier 5-6 months ago :) I don't get the feeling that it's entirely down to
people having less time, as we do have more contributors than ever before!

I've got less time. And I suspect the fests do divert some
conversations.

Perhaps after meeting each other, we've all decided we don't like the
rest ;-)

Maybe the more acrimonious threads soured the happy-go-lucky aura of loc.uk for
some people?

Nah.


Maybe it requires a 'critical mass' of contributors with time to start and
reply to threads?

Probably. There's a bit of a lack of 'old timers' to keep the bonhomie
going.

Maybe us loc.uk'ers have found other interesting corners of LUGNET to inhabit -
I know I spend a bit of time in admin.general badgering Todd for new features,
and I've seen Tony P pop-up in .pirates (Nice Ship!!).

Quite possibly. Although I've just unsubscribed to most groups, cos I
can't keep up!

Maybe the glorious British weather is keeping everyone outside.. nah, that
can't be it...

In conclusion - I dunno - good question! :)

There are more things in Heaven and Earth than Just LEGO.  :-)
