It probably does seem a little slow at the moment now that the post PS3 Slim/Uncharted 2 hype has subsided a little. The community just needs a little time to take a breath before the holiday season, it will pick up again.

You can't insult other members, it is just that simple.  I don't care how much you think they deserve it.  There is no simpler rule on the site, you can't insult each other.

3 months ago, I would have agreed with some of you, but now you guys are just complaining for no reason.
This is the time of the year I enjoy the most, the numbers get bigger, ioi is updating on a regular basis now and he has added some terrific weekly articles which I love each week.

And a lot of people that left have comeback, and new people are rising.

Now, the only thing that has died is the offtopic section, I do miss the great threads it used to give us, but if the owners prefer we focus on the gaming section, its their decision.

I just have to post in "Things Have Gotten Worse" thread # 584253853

Seriously though, this topic gets brought up every few months or so. It's not the community itself that is changing, but your own individual perception of it.

I said the same thing and people got angry at me.

Also there seems to be a lot more crack modding lately. You can follow all the rules and still get puished because a mod had a bad day.

yeah well the rules really do kinda suck a times, you cant make joke because then its called trolling....and no one can tell if your sarcastic so yeah >_>

Things change.

Thats life.

42.

I'm blame me being too busy to post during the day and too tired at night.  Me not being as active is making everyone else sad and just not seeing the point of posting.

I'm pretty sure if won this I'd post more and get the community awesome again. 

I hate these sarcastic members who get away with with trolling all the times.

@damndl0ser: I love you DESPITE the X360 love you have You are "ok" in my book

Hmmm I start actually posting and talking and people make a thread the place is falling apart...should I take this the wrong way ? I do shower twice a day so it can't be the smell. I admit to being semi-infatuated with Seece and Carl but I can stop doing that if it helps. I will close my "Make Demon's Souls a million seller" sweat shop if it helps? I could arrange a bake sell? A love-in (that might be too old a reference for some sorry)? Please don't say it was me???

On a less dramatic note, it might also be the holiday season kicking in taking peoples' time, or the rash of hot games people are too busy playing, or those of us in school it is that time where the instructors want to ensure you hate life and pile everything on while telling us it will make us stronger or some garbage.
