I don't know what happened or what's happening, but Vortex is dead lately, no one posts, no one reply, there is no one on the Cbox... Is there an explanation for it? When I started here, almost every day there were lots of new topics or posts especially on Custom Sprites and Random Banner, and when I didn't log for 2 or 3 days most sections had new posts, now all I see is the same people commenting on the same topics...
It's sad to see

All forums gradually "die" over time. A lot of the regular member's now have things like college and life to worry about.
Just because you, Bob have sometime on your hands to go and check on the forums doesn't mean everyone else does.
A good majority of the members have jobs and careers.
We need to pay our rent and fill our stomach with nutrition.
So , yes the forum isn't as active as it was 2 years ago but there's a logical explanation that comes in 2 words :Shit Happens
