Aye, that's the problem, when they are just short periods of activity, it fades away after a while. I used to just go to the Life forum when I started here. Then after a while, one day, out of the blue by mere chance, I had some time to kill and nothing else to do so I ended up checking a few other sections of the site. I even ended up making a few posts, which made me go back and check for replies later on. If someone goes here daily for a week, the probability that this will happen to them is smaller than if they went here every day for two weeks. If we could somehow keep the activity up in the Life forum, more people would stray to other sections on a more frequent basis and eventually get mixed up with the lifestyle that is Streethop.
Obviously that would attract a lot of idiots, but hey, there's no escaping that.
