"Does anyone even read posts here anymore?
Been noticing it more and more... more and more new posts keep appearing and keep getting pushed down the page. So many of them have only a few replies because they don't stick around long enough to get read.

And then there are the duplicate posts: the same subject matter, on the same page, covered in posts by different people.

Are we just that much into writing, or are we being hacked? "
