Pretty much just like they did in the months prior to burn jita, only to be replaced with so many threads of tears while burn jita was ongoing.

It was quite glorious, actually.

Not much else to talk about.

Highest subscription number of all time sure sounds like the recipe for "smaller community" to me.

There are no preparations for harassing anyone in highsec or for any riots in major trade hubs.

Move along, citizen, nothing to see here.

Did you smoke something this morning? Seeing things now?

This forum does have fewer topics to discuss. I mean the threads are lasting over a week at a time.

To fill the time I'm posting on another game site, as it's that slow. Ugh

This site is a lot slower and does seem to have a lot less posters than it used too. Some of that is a good thing, as there is less spam, but also less opinions and topics.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

Yes a lot more external boards. Not so many additional subforums.

Who said post counts? Thread counts. Do you even understand how forums work?

Smaller sites have less content. If you played larger player games their forums lightup like Christmas trees and can have a thread every hour constantly (with 55+k views for the better ones). When you see top threads here with 2.7k, yeah, there's not that much traffic.

If you're used to posting with that much traffic, EvE's forums are s-l-o-w. I'm running back between YouTube and two other game sites and posting on them, and can, because I won't miss much.

WoW forums see more traffic than EVE forums. Who'da thunk it.

Also did you just call out goons on posting matters? Are you sure you want to go down this path?.

You just asked somebody in Bat Country if they know how forums work. I want you to sit there and figure out what you did wrong.

And I want you to sit there and figure out why I know so much about forums...and its not just by posting on them or owning a license. Pirate

Even more sites and forums have more traffic, seeders and posters (let alone lurkers). It's because they spend time building on them, not navel gazing.

Like they matter?

Do they affect how I play EvE? No.

Do they affect how I play WoW? No.

Do they affect how I play BF3? No.

Do they affect how I play EQII? No.

Do they affect how I play Skyrim (or ESO)? No.

What's "********" is anyone who thinks they do.

The power of money. The power of junior high playgrounds are what happened 30 years ago (I really, really, really don't care, epeens are for kids).
