I don't know how it feels not to...

Updated with this month's stats:

Yikes!

Generally, community activity appears to have slightly declined in the last month, perhaps due to the start of school and tighter time constraints for some of our community. One particularly concerning stat is that the percentage of posts I contributed rose from 14.7% to 19.05%, bucking a trend of declines since March and also being the highest percentage I've made since that month. I'm of the belief that it's never good that one person (me) accounts for so many posts.

We did remain above 2,500 total posts for the fifth consecutive month, thanks to more people posting in general and an influx of new people to the community. We will have to wait and see what happens in October to tell whether it is just our community being busier off-site or if there are more serious problem that need to be tackled.

I can't help feeling a little responsible for the decline.

It's not really your fault...it's just real life barging in on a lot of people at once.

You broke my record.

I need to post moar. :3

I NEED to get back to getting back to how I was before summer.

Wow. I'm not even in the top ten... It has been an odd month.

I have 100+ lesser posts this month. 

In fairness, it would have been very for anyone to keep up with that rate of posting.

I must point out that I don't do this to shame anyone, I just do it to see where things are as a community and see if it looks like anyone's just losing interest here...obviously real life comes up sometimes, and that's fine.

You broke my record.

You definitely do not need to post more! There should be a word minimum limit for your posts to stop you posting a few letters all the time and it being included in your post count!

Oh shit, I'm in the red 

But WM you've hit the problem right on the money. It's been hella busy with school and I've been trying to spend as much of my free time as possible on here being active. Should probably pick up again now that I'm back into the pace of school and stuff.

You broke my record.

But if I said a lot, I would run out of words to say.

Not bad for a newbie, huh?
