Since we are talking about the good old days here, thought I would chime in a bit. Like a lot of the guys/gals here in their late 30s, early 40s who were super active on the board in the late 90s and early to mid 00s, things changed in my life. So yeah, marriage, having a kid, starting my own side business - stuff like that just cuts into the amount of time have for this place. Would I rather spend 2 hours on the board or 2 hours playing with my daughter/spending time with my family? That's a no brainer.
 
Another factor really is 'conversation fatigue'. i think I reached a saturation point on the small subset of heated arguments that come up over and over. There's just not much more to be said that hasn't been covered already. 15 years of man vs. zone debate is tiresome, and now all but pointless because JB has pretty much shown that he's 100% zone now, so arguing about it is just a waste of time. JB's system is what it is, he's been incredibly successful and is an all-time great, but there is little flexibility in that system, so room for debate on tactics/game strategy seems to get smaller and smaller every year.
 
For me it doesn't have anything to do with new posters or anything like that. I don't think in general the new flock is any better or worse, they're just unfamiliar to most people, and most people don't particularly like a lot of change. 
 
Anyway, Let's Go Orange! Beat the Hoyas!
