most of those new members dont actually post, arent actually members, or are spam bots or only sporadically come on, there arent that many, if any, i cn only think of Littleblackstone of late whos shot from the ranks of newb to honorary member in such quick time
you know, its fine, if you think things are fine, so be it, we arent a naiive, and while in the short run things may look "ok", but some of us would like to not only secure its short term members but also long term, and improvements hafto be made to keep this place going,im sure the majority of us will keep going,trying to find improvements, coming on every now and then like you say and saying 'everything is fine', is hardly helpful the minute you rest on your laurels is the minute you lose
and right now, we are LOSING members, and yes some newbies will come and fill in, but they dont just instantly fill the gap, they may bring something different, but they cant replace whats lost, we need to not only bring something different in, but also keep whats been core to the LPF, its core members, and those are slowly declining, for instance i dont see hahninator on anymore, not to mention we just saw stenners implode, who on earth will fill those shoes? as much as people hated stenners, he at the least...well before he imploded, tried to be different, in a forum of one-eyed LP fans SOMETIMES(he was still a ****) it was refreshing to have someone tell things differently(though he could have been a tad less negative with everything that wasnt his own opinion)
