It's more like ... Nate Send a noteboard - 01/03/2013 03:56:33 PM

... most of us grew up, stopped having so much time for websites, and became less frivolous. I don't mean that as an insult to our younger selves, but we were way more frivolous back then, which made for a) more posts, b) more silly posts for fun, and c) more likewise frivolous people who appreciated those posts. Now it's ten years later and we're all getting old and being productive and shit, and the website has almost zero way of attracting fresh blood. Even beyond the frivolity, well-made posts get less attention than they used to because there are fewer people and less energy, which in turn means fewer people are inspired to create well-made posts. It's like the circle of life, which I guess means one of us has to get eaten by goats at the end.
