C. My enjoyment for the board comes from the community aspect of it. I'm not seeing that anymore because there's little communication (replies) to people's posts and even fewer stories that serve as the frameowrk for the site.

G. if the response to my post was only answered by the few diehards who struggle to keep this place spinning. And it was.

> a) Low participation.
> b) Recent changes that make it too ugly or too difficult to use.
> c) Outdated technology trumped at another board (specify: "I need xxxx feature to survive")

A. As I said above


> 6. I don't post new stories because:
>
> a) I don't care to participate in such a small venue.
> b) Lack of replies.
> c) I've become a professional author and I can't write amateur stuff anymore.
> d) The board has made it too difficult to post new stories.
> e) I have a family now and the content isn't suitable for my kids.
> f) I post my stuff to Myspace/Facebook (or other place) for a better audience.
> g) I have my own weblog and only post there.
> h) Other (please specify)

B. If Adam's a leech I guess I'm a diva. Writing stories is work for me, and if the reply rate is low and people aren't making the effort to tell their own tales (again, outside those few diehards) then I'm not going to go through the chore of trying to put something together either.

I think you know I very much enjoy your stories and style of writing. I shall make the time to try and read and reply to more because I want to encourage you to write more. \:\)
