Same pattern today. :(
Get up, a few new posts to read, post replies where appropriate, even start a new thread and... silence. Probably gonna have to wait til tomorrow morning just to repeat the same process again.
I strongly disagree with the assessment that the banning of trolls is responsible; I'm not sure the place would be any better if activity was boosted by an increase is toxic behaviour. That's like saying "hey, we're running low on water, maybe we should drink petrol instead".
Besides which, I can think of a gaming forum off the top of my head with far stricter moderation than VGC which is thriving.
Buggered if I know what the solution is though, all I can think to do is keep trying to stimulate discussion.
