little bit. this has also to do with the fact there haven't been any significant confirmed E90-related news in a while. it's only natural people eventually run out of all good stuff the forum turns more to "i smoked blank blank last night" or "got a ticket for doing 199.9mph" or "I LOVE COMFORT ACCESS" or some newbie posts like "is this a good deal on 325i?" or "when is E92 coming out?" or "is ZPP/ZSP worth the money?"
i don't even go to the OT thread topics because that's a whole another issue...

Slowing of activity.

re: I'm feeling Shift_Less

Been busy. There has been some interesting stuff on OT, but no one has said anything incredibly offensive for several days. Usually that gets people going. OT would probably get more activity if people just didn't start threads like
"What have you got in your pocketses?"

While I love my e90, I really can't talk about cars 24/7...so I spend 3/4 of my time on OT.

BTW CDHeaven - glad you replaced your "Paris Hilton" impression avatar, but what is that thing now...a turkey head?

In the main section, people are just focusing on E92's debute instead of giving useful info about E90's. In the photo section, not enough people are making enough mods yet to show us some interesting photographs of the car, so random photos of new E90's delivered are shot up, which becomes pretty repetitive after 2 min. In the "offtopic" section, there are too many of these incoherent posts that a few members post up that drops the IQ of whoever reads it. Bottom line, the initial fad of getting a brand new model of car is over, and there aren't enough aftermarket products out there yet for everyone's to go crazy on, so we're just seeing the same thing over and over and over.

I think the term you mean is lurker, unless you lurk primarily for Bella, then you're a stalker also.

Perhaps we have post-pickup depression.

I can't obcess over Bella... she's a girl. A cute girl, but still a girl.

I will never be a lurker. I knew a boy with the last name "Lurker"... creepest person I have ever known.

I kinda stopped posting/reading as much after I got my car because I was too busy driving it... the archives has great info on all topics... but recently the posts have been dry.

No offense, but it's an internet forum, what more could you expect?

The car was launched over a year ago, so the intial excitement is gone. I think now that may be hitting home for many especially at the year mark. Get out of it what you do, but at the end of the day it is what it is. The internet.

Yeah but I feel like it's not all about the E90.I also greatly enjoy some of the exchanges between different menbers(some are very interesting,clever etc.),they could have be talkin about the Audi A4,I'd still find it exciting.I sometimes feel like the E90 is just an excuse to be here.

well, I've been here since May 2005 and it's definitely not like before..a lot of new posters have come on and old ones have left which means we see the same topics re-hashed over and over (i.e. The IS250 sucks, How fast can you push your E90, etc. etc.) It just gets really old after a while...I don't even go to the Main forum anymore..I'm pretty busy these days as well which partly explains why I don't have as many posts as some others..
