His experitse lies in one musical genre, and habitually visits that genre's forum so he's more aware what happens in that forum, but he's generally concern about MB, but what he said about HM forum kinda rings true of some other forums too.

well consider the fact that the majority of the active users are still in school in one form or another. it's now mid-october, which would mean the fluffly month spent readjusting to going back to class is now over and the actual school work has kicked in with full force. anyone paying money to attend class is probably spending a little more time on assignments rather than posting.

it's a yearly thing. a forum picks up in the late spring / early summer then dies down again later in the fall.

No, it's been the same since i got here. The metal sub forum has like 3x more posts than any other sub forum, but there really isn't much discussion in there on any bands. Other than Megadeth, Metallica and a couple others.

I really don't see what purpose whining about it serves. If it's that bad, do something about it, whether it's finding somewhere else that'll get just as 'dead' after the amount of time you've spent here or putting time and effort into what you post here in order to make it interesting.

Because most of the bands newly mentioned just sound like everyone else. There are very few individual bands in the Metal scene these days with far too many jumping on a tried and tested template or if they are a little different they don't get any mention because it seems not to be cool to dig them. The same happened in the late 80's with hundreds of Thrash bands that sounded the same. I have been listening to metal for over 20 years and only one or two new bands a year actually float my boat in terms of individuality or prowess.

Maybe you should delve back into older metal and maybe you might find a few gems and start commenting on them.
