Yep I do miss some of the characters, and theres maybe a reason they're not around, this is my theory (I'm probably talkin blergy as usual-but here goes)
when I joined the YOC, and a post was put up it showed 'viewers' instantly.
this gave this site a 'live feel'
what happens now is a post goes up, there are 0 views
20 mins later and that post still has '0 viewers'
42 mins later someone 'replies' to this post
1 minute later someone else also 'replies' to the post
,,,,,,,and the section page i.e. GENERAL , shows this same post as 0 views
2 replies
how the hell can replies be made if no-one has 'viewed' the post
it gives the impression that the forum has visitors but no-one is actualy looking at the site
something has changed in the 're-fresh' or updating of this site, I dont have a problem with this site turning into a 'work-shop' per se, but there are countless other sites where this info can be sourced, this site has held my attention because it felt 'real-time', now it doesn't my attention is easily diverted
