Like others, I hardly come and post much these days unlike before. All I mainly do now is just read a few threads when I'm bored and post very little back to them. Mainly because I started to notice a while ago that very little help was forth coming to problems posted here when asking for help and advice. This was not the case a year or more ago. And was the reason why it was a better community back then which would entice you to make posts.
Sorry, but you kind of lose interest when you know your post are just going to fall on deaf ears all the time. Lately I've seen may questions posted by members, and they even bump their own threads to try and get replies. And weeks later they still have no replies. Open your eyes, if you cannot see this is a big reason for people losing interest here now something is seriously wrong. It's not rocket science!

Just to say, this is seriously just another 'The sky is falling! Forum collapsing!' post that basically comes every few months/years with warnings that the forum is spiralling out of control, failing, too much fighting, staff disagreement, forum will die, etc. And every single time it's proven wrong.
Don't take what I said as a worthless opinion, as I have seen it happen on many, many forums. Threats of mass member exodus, leaving plans, forums being said to be on the brink of collapse and spin offs forming. But as said on another forum as a description, life just goes on as normal.
Either way, I personally don't care if the mods get released here. If they do, good. More people (including maybe myself) can get to try them out than with them as paid modifications. If not, fine. It's up to the author, and whatever choice they make is probably the right one.
