How about an actual conversation? Oh right, every time we try, it's interrupted by some kid with some oh-so-important boredom busting bullshit. If you're bored, go do something.

I hate this forum because it tries on one hand to force kids to act "socially acceptable", but no one really gives a **** unless you're swearing. Who cares if you post unintelligible non-sense, just don't cuss doing so. No wonder everyone left once they grew up, this place doesn't let you act human because we baby these kids and shield them from the real world. Guess what, in the real world, people talk, and they discuss things. They don't communicate in a manner similar to Facebook status updates or short little snippets of not much meaning plastered with random memes. In the real world, people also speak their mind if they have a problem, which I do. My problem is that kids these days are regressing in communication skills. None of you know how to communicate nearly as effectively as my generation, and I know this for a fact because the observable communication on the internet is decreasing. Why is this forum dead? Because kids these days don't communicate, they just play their games and isolate themselves from the world. I play MMORPGs where I can run entire dungeons with kids and not a single ******* one of them will say as much as "hey". What the hell is this? We are HUMAN BEINGS, not MACHINES dammit! Express yourselves accordingly!

Now the thing is, it's not that we baby anyone. Lan you should know that I do not do that at all. It's just that we have to be aware that there might be some young kids around. I grew up on Pe2k and it has basically taught me the English language. Having discussions have become a lot less common yes, but that's because people around here never know what to talk about anymore. We need something to revitalize the community and give us a big boost.
