We used to have people posting on ETC. every minute and it was fun. Now 15 minutes or more go between posts. People are afraid to post and unhappy with the direction that this site is taking.
I for one am neither wholly unhappy, nor afraid to post... I am simply disgruntled and my interest is waning - I have no interest to post to a site that is becoming more and more politically correct in the interests of the few while ignoring the concerns of a majority of it's oldest-standing, active members.
But I like conversation and it's a great alternative to work, so here I am. I guess I'm contributing to the problem, I suppose.
