I did a quick check and I’d say at least half of the top 40 posters on here (those with mote than 10,000 posts), either don’t post anymore or rarely post, I.e. less than say one post a week on average.
Blind Freddy could see that traffic is well down on what it used to be all across the board.
The ammo's board used to be an absolute mecca all week, every week, now it's a ghost town.
Never went in the Amo’ forums, or the AFL
Can see the SANFL board is much quieter but I put that down to the 2 AFL Reserves joining. Other Sports, I tend to only look in the Soccer and NFL threads, and only a few of the General Discussion threads.
Looking at the top 50 or so posters I’d say of those not posting anymore, a good few stopped after arseholegate, a few stopped when Talking Footy started up and a few when the AFL Reserves joined.
You are right though, traffic is down in the forums I read so it would be safe to assume it’s down elsewhere and up to 2011 there was about 8 or 10 moderators on here all kept pretty busy. The abuse does seem to have dropped off, and whilst being a less entertaining read, I guess that’s a good thing
