Why...

Post by gizmo00999 »

is it just me or is virtuadopt really dead right now? There's close to no activity here...there used to be so many player-created contests (that weren't just plain giveaways), The art section was much more active, people were more talkative! I'm thinking of creating a contest,but I doubt I can raise the activeness of this site alone. I'm often busy and I don't have the time to gather adoptables to make contests.

Indeed it's been a lot quieter here than it once was for at least a year.
The activity in the clubs section has decreased significantly. It used to be fast paced and crowded and now hardly any of them have been touched in some time.

The roleplaying section's dead too. There's only about five active roleplays, most of which are quite old. The one that I've joined is new and there's only me and the OP. I'm starting my A-Levels soon as well so I probably won't be active much either.

If I'm not that active, blame exams and stuff.

It seems that way, yes :( I remember the Forum Games section being super busy, to the point where I would have trouble keeping up with the replies. Now, not so much.

I'm still kind of new here and I pop in occasionally.

It's sad how the forum is kind of inactive, especially since it's Pokemon's 20th anniversary this year. It would be interesting if there was something cool to celebrate it, but I'm unsure of how well that would be if people are inactive... :(

Whenever I'm on there's about 5-20 people on.
It normally averages 7.

You know complaining and expressing your disappointment won't help much, because it's not easy to find a qualified person who'd work for free (or maybe really not that much money).

We can also be active with no updates atm, but the most people need the events to keep fun in the game ... ;)

Not just Virtuadopt, but all the other foruns I used to frequent were also victims of sudden inactivity. Also, looks like that this epidemy cannot be cured so easily ~~

Maybe things would pick up speed and more people would come back for Pokemon Sun and Moon/Gen 7? :o

Or maybe not. I'm still kind of new.... ^^;

I never realized how lonely it feels, even with all my adopts. Even the few regulars seem to be the strong silent type. I'm still putting in activity regardless but it is pretty sad to see a place that's so amazing and unique be so desolate in the people department. It's somewhat discouraging knowing I'm getting ready to unveil my artistic side on here in a shop, and was hoping to interact with fellow artists and even try to RP with someone. I know life gets busy and some days people can't make the time to log in. But overall it seems like people just don't care about anything anymore, no matter how great. :(
