I pretty much only read this section nowadays, everywhere else on the forum is the same old threads for the last 2 years - literally nothing has changed so I have no interest anymore. At least in off topic people are generally nattering and sometimes that can be quite interesting.
As for the rest of the forum, well it's about LFS, and two things have gone wrong there. The first thing I don't need to mention, the second is the community enforcing their eutopian ideals of what they think the devs want them to say ... That is, endless bickering about forum ettiquette every time somebody they dont recognise posts, after all these years *peers over her reading glasses at you* it's tiresome.
I don't play the game itself anymore, although I did spend a day coding under insim this weekend just gone - so the potential for some interest is there, but really i'm waiting for some new content before I bother to relearn the ropes and get interested again. I need 3 or 4 new tracks to relight my fire, and without them it's just the same old fictional emotionless corners all over again.
