Alessandro17 Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Is it just me or the forum is much quieter than usual these days? (I don't mean how many users are active at any given time, but the number of posts). I wonder why. Maybe because of the Summer holidays?

mac_cute Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Yes,I think that.But I guess that depends on what threads we are talking about.At least I was quiet yesterday (Independence Day here,5th July)...Maybe the summer break as you said.

Running With Scissors Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Yeah I think that too. Perhaps some more forum categories are needed. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114346-forum-very-quiet/#findComment-809769 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzie's Soliloquy Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 This definitely is lacking the life it had a few weeks ago :S Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114346-forum-very-quiet/#findComment-812418 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snerler Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Yeah i always think its strange that the post count is so low compared to the number of people on the site at any time.

InferiorYeast Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Maybe people are *gasp* actually searching and finding information themselves from old topics rather than asking the same questions a million times.

lord_muad_dib Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 insanelymac is far to be a community, people do a post, then vanish not to mention that there are hundreds of people that register just to ask for invites or to pm a random mod for help Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114346-forum-very-quiet/#findComment-812799 Share on other sites More sharing options...
slim2001 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Yeah i agree with you guys its a bit quite, that probably why no one has to help with my problem i am having with my motherboard. or maybe everyone is chilling out in the IRC channels Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114346-forum-very-quiet/#findComment-812819 Share on other sites More sharing options...

U.C. Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 That means the rest are here to read, search and not ask stpid questions. I am sure we all did the same at some point. I know I did for 4-5 months.

Alessandro17 Posted July 9, 2008 Author Share Posted July 9, 2008 That means the rest are here to read, search and not ask stpid questions. I am sure we all did the same at some point. I know I did for 4-5 months. I agree only partially. You aren't really a member of an internet community until you contribute actively in some way. I am also a member of some forums where I have never posted, but I could never maintain that I am an active member. And BTW, lord, "161300+ registered and validated users with 0 posts" ? That is absolutely staggering. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/114346-forum-very-quiet/#findComment-812939 Share on other sites More sharing options...
(MoC) Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 I agree only partially. You aren't really a member of an internet community until you contribute actively in some way.I am also a member of some forums where I have never posted, but I could never maintain that I am an active member. And BTW, lord, "161300+ registered and validated users with 0 posts" ? That is absolutely staggering. I, too, was shocked by that. I think that I have an idea to clean some of that, and clean InsanelyMac a little.
