Personally, I did not get tired of writing posts. I got tired of the attitude towards post writers.
Oh, but comparing people's hard work with a comment about shit, that's real helpful, right there. That strikes just the right tone, right out of the gate.

I know if I was on the battlefield and I got hit by a pile of shit... I'd probably go home.

If someone started here within the last few years then they probably haven't seen how active the tavern boards used to be. Speaking of that here's an assignment for people: Go to the Mikona Tavern board and jump to the oldest pages. Start reading random threads.

Nothing will change as a result of this. We'll all talk about this stuff, say what great ideas some of these things are, and then nothing will result of it or change and we'll be right back to have the same talk again on the boards, IRC, or wherever in a year or so. It will be the same people wondering why no one posts, the same regular posters frustrated and on the edge of burnout because no one posts so that they can occasionally get a break, and everyone in between. Someone will then speak up about it, and the cycle begins anew.
It isn't what anyone would like to hear or admit to I'm sure, but I have seen this topic come up several times over the last several years and this is usually how the talk goes and what I said above is how it always ends. If you want more posts you have to do it yourself and expect nothing in return. You won't get anywhere asking other people to do it or asking the team to incentivize it. That's just how it is.
