Hey Y'all: What has happened to Lugnet? Where is everyone? I don't pay attention to the stats, but I think that frequency of posting must be at an all time low. Am I wrong about this? The place is as quiet as a morgue. I keep bumping into some of (...) (22 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.general)

Richard & All, (...) It is a little slow lately. (...) Why would that make anyone not post to here? (Outside of all the debate people, anyway) I would hope LUGNET would not be a focal point in which politics is the only reason they post. (...) Well, (...) (22 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.general)

(...) Strangely enough, my frequency went *up* after we switched to verification. That was not, however, the reason why. My posting is back down in the last few months, however, because I've been totally buried under work. LFB (22 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.general)
