    Sorry to be so open about it, but does ne1 notice a slowdown on bit-tech forums? it doesnt seem to be as active as it use to be like the overclockingstore forum (r.i.p)

    my 2 cents

    Aye it does seem to be a bit slow the past week or so, but it happens every so often. People realise they need to do work rather than spending so much time on Bit :p It'll probably pick up in a week or so.

    All smart addicts know that they have to have a clean period once in a while to prevent habituation. ;)

    Heh, don't say that... you wouldn't like to see some of the so-called "content" some people are willing to post. :worried:

    Theres a few regulars that I haven't seen around recently. Maybe it's nearing the time for essay/coursework moderatin or something. I know some of my courseworks seem to be grouped together.

    I very rarely post anymore. I've somewhat lost interest in modding and computer hardware over the past few months.

    Plus I have more work than I anticipated on the go. I thought uni was all about drinking and shagging? I guess that only applies to arts students who have nothing else to do.

    Werd.

    I've just finished a bunch of exams and some assignments at college. I only ever read the GD and A/V Forums nowadays anyway.

    edit: just noticed im at nearly 2 years of following bit, Over that period this place has taken alot of my time, 99% of the people here i get along with, I very rarely "disagree" (read: Argue) with anyone tbh. Its a brilliant, nice, friendly place to be.

    Thanks everyone (read: Not Hyb1rd) i guess :thumb:

    Mike

    I guess the constant bombardment of "new" techies is turning the forums into a bit of a stagnant area - and there arent enough non cynical individuals who have been here for awhile to go about and kindly correct behaviour. Its not just a weekly thing, this is a general trend. Remember the high time of Piloux? Whilst this is modding's slow season, 2004 was a peak year for bit-tech.
