It's obvious that one reason for the drop in posting is down to cosy little private Facebook groups started up around the time of the switch and posters prefer yaking with their friends on these. Also, the rise of CCMB members-only clubs which have been encouraged by the new format has further alienated and sidelined posters.
As I haven't been invited to join any of these (presumably because of height restrictions), I seem to have drawn the short straw. It's not as though I haven't made formal requests to join.![]()
