Why are you so fixated on the negative side of things?

It's not negative, just an 'alternative perspective.'
We are not worthy of Micron's presence. We are just ants in his little world. |

You're right. SOHH, YTMND, Illesty, etc forums are normally booming throughout the day. People feed off of new topics. I don't get it with this site, either. I've even made a shitload of suggestions, but progress inches along. It's not enough for me to get all worked up about, but I don't get it man. |

This are just different now, I guess. Things come in waves... I think it'll eventually pick up again.
And I wasn't actually offended there. You just always sound really negative to me.

When there was a lot of drama, for some odd reason, the other subforums on CB increased in activity.

 in a matter of time Group: Staff Alumni Posts: 7,151 Joined: Aug 2005 Member No: 191,357 |
We don't have THAT many members online at a time like some other forums I can think of. Plus, people who come to cB usually heard about it because they were interested in learning about and discussing web design and graphic design. I think we can safely say that there isn't really much to report on in the the web and graphic design world on a daily basis...hell, not even a monthly basis. So cB thrives based on social discussions, not so much about blogs or designing blogs. And who's to say that you couldn't discuss all that other stuff on another forum?
Bottom line...we're just not specialized enough, so we don't get too many loyal members, only maybe 50 long-term ones at a time. How much could 50 active members contribute at a time? |

here's a question for you, Mr. Angry Infant, you: does Micron = CB? Is he the personification of this entire website? If so, he's got some skeletons in his closet, lol.

lol nah, that guy dropped us like an illegitimate child.
i was just attempting to put some purpose to my post lol , by adding a neutral member to the statement haha. if anything, i think we can all agree its the og members that personify cb. its officially been an hour since anyone posted in members photos lol.[/funfact] |

QUOTE(AngryBaby @ Nov 5 2008, 11:27 PM) that's interesting, if you don't mind me asking... Okay, so maybe not 'negative', but you've already complained about the same thing SO MANY TIMES. In threads that are still open!!besides when i made a topic about this before, when have i seemed negative? (And I just realized I read your post wrong. LOL so much for the following...) QUOTE(AngryBaby @ Oct 19 2008, 07:49 PM) don't seem like it. QUOTE(AngryBaby @ Sep 15 2008, 07:23 PM) do you guys agree? this is ridiculous mannnn, f**kin.....ridiculous QUOTE(AngryBaby @ Oct 19 2008, 07:08 PM) wanna know why this site loses people? Breakerforlyfe made a decent normal topic at 2:00 pm today and im the only one who replied....at 8:00pm! its now 10.....no other replies... and its not like its being bumped to page 3 or anything, like an active forum, but its still the newest topic! lol this happens with so many topics as well, i try to stay but then im like..."lawl f**k it!". there's other forums where even the WORST topics will get at least some replies in a normal time, then get bumped to page 5. but when a user makes a topic and never gets any support, it kinda discourages the stay. ya feel me? this is ridiculous maynneee. its sad to see this site die like this. [/rant] QUOTE(AngryBaby @ Sept 15 2008, 07:49 PM) i swear there's like 20 members in createblog ... so wow... this clearly shows that I have no life.  Anyway, just pointing it out. I actually like you and find you quite funny and entertaining... it just gets old with all these complaints, y'know? |

well i always get pissed about the activity but then i think about it sorta like gigi. when there is a lot of people online i usually only actually know a handful of them so it's safe to say the rest of them are here for resources anyway. so it seems distorted to say there is a lot on but it's dead, since most of those people aren't here for the forum anyway. that's why it's not surprising that we can't keep up the speed that bigger forums with more people can.

I always come on at like the same time everyday.
About 12:40pm and then when I get home at 3:15. Almost nobody is ever on at 12.
