I've noticed lately that the forums aren't as active and alive as they used to be. There's less people posting in here and less frequently as well. There are of course the forum regulars still posting, and the occasional new person starting his path towards being a forum regular, but that's about it. Anyone else notice it? And for those people who have noticed it, why do you think it's happening?
I'd say activity is more or less cyclic. Whenever a big game comes out, though, that's when people tend to come. When Gemcraft came out, there were quite a few new people. When Sonny 2 came out, quite a few joined. I guess you can say we are in a "depression" of sorts.
Interesting theory except for one flaw. WE HAVE A NEW GEMCRAFT GAME.
Dragonball, you scare me sometimes. Wait, scratch that. ALL THE TIME.

I scare you with these minor instances of unsanity (no, not insanity; I have to be different)? Just look at the Neverending Story in the Arts section. You'll probably soil yourself if I'm scaring you now...
"-evil laugh- -cough-" "You really need to get that cough looked at" "This is the wrong thread. We're supposed to do this in the Neverending Story." "But it's even more fun to do it in random threads to scare people." "...True that."

Dude, I am just playing. You should of seen my in my hay-days here on AG. Is the dialogue an inside joke for NES?
Arrgh. We gotta get back on topic before a mod gets mad. So, any other ideas as to why there's a lack of activity in the forums?
Two words: Finals...
...i is smart.
I'm not even gonna talk about the grammatical flaws. The other flaws include: not everyone is taking finals and the people that are still on aren't posting much in the forums either. >_>
I noticed. I may only get on during the off-peak, but now even the forum games are dead during it. I'm waiting until moar peoples start getting active, and then I'll get up earlier to get the on-peak.
It's quite sad, I feel that I'm either talking just to myself or to the same few people. It gets boring after awhile considering that it used to be as busy as a wet market.(Just a metaphor Singaporeans use...).
Always the same few top users or new comers who get bored after some time. Depressing.
I don't plan on leaving AG any time soon. I've been inactive for a few days due to internet connectivity problems. Now, I'm on at midnight. For me it looks like I will be on less often because I'll be stuck with dial-up. For me at least it is vacation time. I do not know whether more people will come here to the forums, obviously few among those who enter AG, step into the forums
The forums do this. Give it like a month or so, and you will forget all about not being able to find people to tlak to. The real reason, is the quality of threads. When there isn't much to say, you cna't say much.
So, just try and make good topics, and see what happens.
Bah, it's in the middle of spring and loads of homework are reeling by some people (like me). Let it pass.. OMG! Soon summer.... That reminds me! In summer, loads of people are going to be active. Last summer it was very active, so this one will be even more since there are more users = more spammers. But there will probably be a day where AG's forum becomes dead.... In like 20 years.

I don't know; I don't want to sit home, and posting into the forum at summer time... And I don't mind not seeing new users always. New users usually spam, and you can't make a good conversation with them.(Respect for the exception)
Being outside with friends is not boring I think...
Well, I can't visit my only friend so often since she lives in Norway. No, it isn't boring being with friends but being outside is boring! No computer man, no computer!
