Unfortunatly its kinda the way forums are going these days, most people are satisfied to consolidate their hobbies/ interests through facebook. The tournaments and competition based stuff is still the only way to really encourage posting from either regulars or new members, but I guess its hard to keep things fresh. I think the important thing with small communities like this is maintaining a positive environment and quality posters. I pop on most days even when I dont post, just to see whats going on. I value the opinions of the people that post here, even if I dont always agree with them and enjoy the diversity we have in our community. I'd like to see more of the new members that sign up stick around, but ultimately I don't think its something that is easy to control. I know in the past a few new memebers have complained about feeling isolated or not welcome or whatever else, but I think thats just a symptom of joining any new community and if anything alot of the tournaments and games openly encourage everyone to get involved which is all you can really ask for.
