OBsolete.
A couple of members have been leaving over the past few weeks; including Juuthena, Final Flash and Shaun. Members leave all of the time, but it's always sad to see them disappear in such a steady stream. I guess this happens after the Summer, when some people decide that they do not have enough time for OB and school. When school is out things will pick up again, even though they weren't especially active this Summer.
Part of that I'm blaming on MyOtaku, since this collective of blogs is slowly draining away the member base at OB.
Not that it's a bad thing. I think that MyOtaku is going to bring people closer together than the boards ever had, which in turn will make our beloved forums obsolete.
Everyone has control over their Myotaku site, so on a basic level everyone is equal. This is a good thing, because there isn't a need for any staff members. Now members like James and Sara, who have been in the "spotlight" of OB can relax and not deal with constsant questions and complaints by other members.
There's some irony about writing all of this on a MyOtaku site, but I'm too tired for irony right now. I've had enough of it from Disney this week...
