Hi champs!

So apparently me mate @Geekazoid decided that he needed quite a lengthy break from this forum, don't know why, some personal reason, but that's got me wondering and asking...

who else has chosen to leave this great community forum?

I've only been a member here for about two weeks, and so I'm wondering, is it normal for people to leave this forum, isn't this supposed to be a great community forum, if so, then why are people leaving?

I'm kind of a bit confused and curious at the same time.

Anyway, anyone care to shed some light on this, so to speak, or even just share your thoughts on this.

People leave and people join. That is the nature of an internet forum.

People can chose to leave for a variety of reasons, so it doesn't necessarily say anything about the community (although some will tell you otherwise).

But he left some time ago too right? (and got back) :o

I don't know, people leave and join. Some stay and be helpful, some not.

That is just the nature of a forum with almost 200K members.

Hmm, well I personally haven't been on too many forums myself, but joined this one because it looked good. :)

I can't say that this community is bad, heck I only joined 6 months ago, but activity isn't as strong as it used to be. I always used to get beaten to helping people with their issues, but now it never happens.

Massive who cares. Announcing somebody leaving or announcing your own departure is basically the equivalent of 12 year old's and people with the mental equivalency of one posting long winded status' about how their leaving facebook. Only to come back a week later.

 

People leave forums all the time, it's a thing that happens.

I had no idea the forums were like an MMO where people make "i quit" threads or talk about quitting, it doesn't cost anything to chat here and i cant understand why someone would need to quit, wouldn't you just stop posting? :)

OP wanted to ask which other members like the above mentioned left LTT and why they left.
