[x]

It's been like that for about 20 minutes now...
And it's not even the middle of the night or something!
>>;
Where is everyone??

Spoons, in case you need them:
- Have you had times like these, where you just wanted to shake Mene and yell, "POST, DANGIT, POST!" to all the Menewshans?
- Where is everyone??

Wordstreamer 07-27-2008 04:22 AM

Oooh, yeah, that's happened to me, too.

Though it could just be that they were somewhere else? :?

tentenpuff 07-27-2008 04:29 AM

But where could they be? xD;

I feel like we're missing something big. >>;
Like somewhere else, there's a huge event going on or something, and we're here, wondering where they are. xD

CK 07-27-2008 07:30 AM

XD; Well, there is an event going on... the user-event. >_>;
Many people may be playing games to get extra gold saved up for the up-coming Celes Paradi.

Gaia's having an event right now too, which might be taking some people away.
I know lots of people doing conventions right now or vacations, at least.

But, yeah... there have been loads of times I've torn my hair out waiting for someone to post in one of the areas I frequently post in. XD I'm online at odder (and longer) hours than most users, though.

tentenpuff 07-27-2008 01:03 PM

...oh yeah. xD;;;
-feels absentminded-

Oh, that's true...
A lot of the users I've seen are on vacation right now.
It's kind of weird, though; they all sort of disappeared at around the same dates. xD

I just always thought that Mene would be at it's peak over the summer or something. xD
I mean, during school, I always had trouble getting on, or got in trouble from getting on. XD;
But now, during vacation, it's when I have time for it most. Then again, it's also when I have time for a lot of stuff. >>;

-sigh- But in the end, you have to give up and face the fact that no one seems to be posting. XP;
And then you have to go and drag yourself away so you don't waste your time constantly refreshing and checking. >>;

Tre Le Coco 07-27-2008 01:11 PM

tentenpuff 07-27-2008 01:37 PM

@ Tre:
Aww. D:
So you don't get to associate with the users much?

XD Well, for one I currently don't work outside the home or have classes or a lot of social obligations. XD

For two, I'm Staff, so I'm supposed to be on regularly (though obviously I'm not required to be online as much as I am online). And since there's an event coming up, I have loose ends I need to tie. XD;

Tre Le Coco 07-27-2008 11:44 PM

actually i don't talk much anyway these days because some users just chase staff away, and i myself had a month off...that i spent either with my boyfriend or infront of my game cube :squee:

Wordstreamer 07-28-2008 07:34 AM

My only problem is when I stalk a forum for a while, sigh, and go away--and discover that someone posted right after I did that. :headdesk:

'm guessing it's the events and the fact that most people (not me) tend to go on vacations around this time of year. XP They should come back! :gonk:

Sun 07-28-2008 07:54 AM

I've noticed it's been really quiet too. I guess it's just because it's holiday season.

Wickedpan-chan 07-28-2008 08:31 AM

so we are all havin poblems with that
i have it aloth cos i live 700 aprt. by the time everone gets online i tend to go to bed
lame
but yes it has ben siletn here
..give it a month and they will be back

Silenia 07-28-2008 02:25 PM

Well, as the forum I post in most isn't quite active anyway, I didn't really notice much of it. XD
And I live in Europe which causes me to be online at times Mene is almost dead anyway.
But you're probably right. xD

MacSen191 07-28-2008 08:52 PM

I'm around, kinda. I've been playing Flyff or Luminary: Rise Of The Goonzu when I'm not running around after my son.(He's kinda starting to walk and he's a fast bugger... lol)

Everyone I know is on vacation. I don't have time or the money for one... lol. Anyway... gotta run. Have to help my SO figure how to put the bike trailer we bought for our son.(Were gonna do a lot more biking... saves on gas...)

fuyumi_saito 07-28-2008 08:56 PM

Umm..yeah menewsha can be a bit dead at times..Well there are actually a lot of users who are invisible, so that's another reason why it might seem dead.

The most active place I believe is the hang out forum, I mostly hang out in the charity forum myself. Even though my own charity closed, deadness being a one of the reasons.

Events help keep avatar sites alive, so I'm sure everything will be active again once the next staff event comes around *nods*

Amo_Angelus 07-29-2008 03:49 AM

I know a lot more users are lurking instead of posting. Including a fair few who were once really heavy posters so that may account for some of the deadness. But also it's summer so people are eventually going out and doing stuff away from the computer too.

Easther_Bunni 07-29-2008 04:49 AM

It sure seems dead right now. Even during the event it wasn't too busy here.

Wickedpan-chan 07-29-2008 12:58 PM

mhe i'll wait for fall summer is out going time party's and wat not :)

Wuteverdude 08-02-2008 08:59 PM

"Mwell, first of all, 20 minutes isn't a long time if it's close to midnight. x.x Calm down, me dear ... -gives ice pack- .3.;

Also, I'm not much of a forum bug myself. xD I guess there are others who aren't big forum bugs either ... Also, don't forget that Mene's a mich smaller community than some people may be used to (Say those people were Gaia users).

I"M RIGHT HERE, YOU SILLEH! <_>"

Melody 08-04-2008 12:30 AM

well, let's hope that this event will get more people posting! <3

since you get rewarded for posting and NOT lurking. <3

amyrex2 08-06-2008 11:54 PM

Since the event started, I can barely stay on. The question is, how many people here for the event will stay around afterwards? I know am posting way more than normal for the event. I am trying for 2 of each item, and it is really hard for me. I lurk to much.

Fabby 08-07-2008 09:03 AM

Don't worry, I feel the same way.
Mene is so insanely slow sometimes.

Genji to Heike 08-18-2008 09:38 AM

-gets poked- Oww. So far, I have not had that feeling. I've not been here long.

AkashaHeartilly 08-18-2008 10:00 AM

Mene died fairly quickly after the event just like it almost always does.

Mene has been quiter than normal lately.

Tre Le Coco 08-18-2008 10:18 AM

Everywhere (ie avatar sites) is alot more quiet right now, not just here :yes: *has been doing some small research*

Its due to schooling starting up again i believe, considering most people are from the northen side of the world
