Nah, it's a valid question. Things do seem to have settled down a bit. I think there are a couple of reasons. It's summer time! Many folks are on vacation, outside more, and not buying as much indoor toys and gifts. I mean, after all, the holidays are when EVERYBODY feels they have to spend the money on stuff that brings in new blood. There's also the fact that new stuff is slow coming. When the new F&F stuff came out, along with new PCBs, and new motors, the boards were a buzzin. But, now there is a lull in new stuff coming to market. New stuff has to be shown, talked about, argued over, and bragged about. This increases traffic on the boards as well. Wait for new releases of Zips and Bits, winter time, especially right before the mandatory holiday spending glut, or some great new modding idea or conversion, and you'll see the boards light up anew.
