Community.
Yeah, y'know, General Dink discussion means discussions on dinkm d-mods, or on the COMUNITY. A very active community (I don't even know how many m's are needed - I'll just use one). Yeah, a very active -one-, as far as I can see, there hasn't been a post for quite a while. don't tell me this forum is dying. It never was extremely crowded, but right now, when Christmas is coming... there is silence on the Board.
again, that is.
So I dunno what is to be done. Yep, I agree, there are new d-mods and things, but everything seems to be still. Actually, come to think about it, I created an almost similar topic some time ago, so... I dunno, think of something, think of things to post, d-mods to start, & stuff. Study Dink's history, geneological (?) tree or think of ways to improve duck killing, I don't know, but just think of something, and even more, post about it, okay guys? Cause life's short

Well, another "hot" D-Mod is in the pipeline (not from me, though), so perhaps that'll bring a bit more life to this currently-dormant board.
It's not dormant, ya'll are just twitchy. Every time I log on , something new has been added. It's Christmas and people are busy with loved ones but they are still posting.
Ok, sorry, I guess I got caught by the wave, it ain't that bad, but anyway....it's not as always.
holidays are coming, so who knows. but usually, exactly when I log in (which happens rarely by the way) everithing is still, desolating.

I have been on the board for a while now (probably 9 months now), and you can always count on the dink board being inconsistent.
Hmm, if Christmas means that no-one is posting, we have Christmas here all the time!! Wh00ptyd00
Heh, I wish
The old members have grown up and left or got busier or something, and maybe not as much new people have come in to replace them. That's just how it goes...
(besides: when it's christmas holiday, there will be MORE posts..)

There are new people coming in too as evidenced by myself. Just like everything else on the web there are highs and lows. Even on the slow days I still see responses though.
maybe something should be done to attract more members? or make the current ones more active?

I am as active as I can surely be at my age ,
besides I am replaying SimonK's Pilgrim's Quest, and luckily for him, he can not hear all my cussing!

Holidays are a good thing. they give d-mod authors a chance to get some serious work done!! And with the contest announced, expect a few exceptional d-mods (watch out for Paul Pliska...).
Maybe I'll even finish something?
