Calm down Masterkey, you don't wanna get a warning for over doing it a little.

I'll only post if I can add something to the topic.  In the Chatboard, I'll post something if I think it's good enough.  I'm not about to post for the sake of posting.  Remember, it's quality, not quantity.  What good would this forum be if everyone posted all the time, but nothing said was worth it?

I'm the one that had the idea for this topic. It's just that this place seems to be dead as of late. Here, we have five or six people on at one time, but NO ONE posts.

Now why is that? People are online, but no one says a thing. I'm sure I'm not the only one that finds this odd.

People don't post because they go:

Ooh! Ooh! What an awesome site! I HAVE to join!

But they have no intention of being an active member, they just want to join.

But doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of joining?

Not to them, it doesn't.

You've got to remeber that people have lives offline. For example: I wasn't on because I thought my mom said I couldn't go on AT ALL because of my grades, but I found out that I just have a time limit on the internet.

That's not exactly what I meant... what about the ACTIVE posters like. well, everyone we know. I see that they're online, but they RARELY post... at least, not to an interesting and lively degree... it's like we're zombies man!

Because maybe we're doing other stuff? And there's also the fact that nobody has anything to say all the time. We're not all spambots like DFP over there.

If we actually talked, we wouldn't have such spambots...

At least some people try to make the place not as depressing as it is...  :'( :'( :'( :'(

Post by: MasterKeyX on March 04, 2007, 10:42:13 AM
Well, I have other stuff to do in real life and while im online as well, but it doesnt take all that long to make maybe 1 or 2 posts.
Title: Re:WHY THE HE** DOES NO ONE POST?!

I only come here. I like it that much!

Like Commodore Axilon said, I'm usually doing other stuff online when I log onto TDC.  Sometimes, I'm just waiting for MagmarFire to log on so we can talk over PMs.  CA is also right that I don't always have something to say.  I'm not going to post for the mere sake of posting.  As I have said many times before, I'd rather go to a forum where everyone posts every once in while with posts worth reading as opposed to a forum where everyone is constantly posting but nothing is worth reading.

Title: Re:WHY THE HE** DOES NO ONE POST?!
Post by: MasterKeyX on March 04, 2007, 12:33:18 PM
Filming time... you mean for the contest thingy?
Title: Re:WHY THE HE** DOES NO ONE POST?!
Post by: DW on March 04, 2007, 12:35:02 PM
yes. I finally got everything set up and got the camera ready. So I call them and tell them to get down here and they say they don't want to film on Sunday...

The thing at the bottom of the main page says I'm on 24/7 because I set the login timer to forever.  So I'm not on that much.
Title: Re:WHY THE HE** DOES NO ONE POST?!
Post by: Mysterious F. on March 05, 2007, 03:36:25 PM
Really? It doesn't say you're on all the time on mine.
Title: Re:WHY THE HE** DOES NO ONE POST?!
Post by: JDog on March 05, 2007, 03:50:49 PM
Well, maybe its just the weekends people are out and doing things, because it looks like the people are posting.
Title: Re:WHY THE HE** DOES NO ONE POST?!
Post by: MasterKeyX on March 05, 2007, 04:12:42 PM
Perhaps it is the weekends....and school. School does take alot of time.
Title: Re:WHY THE HE** DOES NO ONE POST?!
Post by: JDog on March 05, 2007, 04:15:08 PM
Yes, because when it was summer, there was lots of posting, and that is fun, but since school started up, there hasn't been as much posting as there used to be, but don't worry, this site shall never die, and if it does, I'll have no life, lol.
