I might be wrong, but this is kind of what I precieve. If you agree, than what should we do about it? Im sure that the pendulum will eventually swing back in our favor, but should we take action to redeem our homeland? If you dont agree, that fine too, feel free to express that. This just happens to be what I've seen as of late.

Pah, we're on a plateau of averageness following a slight peak in activity. What you're currenly experiencing Mr. L337 is the natural state of the ATT.

I think if we sack µ, all of our problems will go away.

I stopped posting recently, that is obviously the reason for the decline in quality.

Or Trah knows what he is talking about. The loss of him is obviously the reason.

Really, I as in no way blaming M-chan or Lekxor, so no need to feel unloved. Since im relatively new, pufer is probably right, and I should just shut up like the n00b that I am.

Don't do that. It is tradition on every board I've ever been on to blame the new people for a percived decline in quality.

Amen.

Quality has gone down a tick or two. Maybe you guys are losing people to B&B. *Gasp!*

If people would stop turning every topic into useless and uninteresting conversations, the quality would immeidately rise.

I think that more attempts to stay remotely on topic would indeed help considerably. Like if the topic if were about freeing tibet, inappropriate posts would be "wang", or "µ is cute".

What's wrong with wang? If used well, it can be funny.

The fast reply feature could be a part of the problem; it makes posting low quality, low content posts much easier.... just press the button, type in a few characters, and BAM you have a post.

you should edit that post to make it appear more realistic. Just writing edit doesn't trick the geniuses of ATT.

Perhaps if I locked every single topic and gave everyone a lecture quality might improve? It worked last time.

I have anonymous editing by default, its such a pain to temporarily disable.

I mean, I have to click a whole checkbox.

And SA: go for it, but up some people's warning level by 10%, just because.

"µ is cute"

But seriously folks, instead of complaining about the lack of quality, here's a crazy idea, why don't you do something about it?

I mean other than posting stuff like this...
