edit: also, new denizens are usually very young. The more time you spend in OT, the older you get, so it's harder to relate with new denizens since on average they'll be younger than you are.

I also sort of feel like this, but I guess it's a quite normal process as the forum evolves, there's a period in where a particular group of users start slowing down in their activities (look at the 7th gen list for example, you'll notice that the first 8-10 users have been less active than before) and new people start taking their place. They'll slowly stop resembling 7th gen and start defining a new road by themselves, different from the road that former generations left.

It's something that I don't quite like, but it's isn't something we can control nor avoid.

i dislike most of the new people coming here in general

it's kinda like older ideas and feelings being pushed away to make room for fresh new ideas and feelings, which feel foreign and we don't like the new ideas coming in

we can compare this to the "generations" irl, where the older people say "back in my day" while the younger people do whatever they want

Not necesarily a friendly relationship but rather on the similarity of content and similar humor and actions that each generation had, and similar reaction to new users.

that is my main reason why I started visiting this place, so I'd say that's probably the case. the newcomers, however, start to get bored of OT. it's just not as interesting or as active of a place as other social media websites

sure, i enjoy derailing threads. praising mikasa or posting my scores and all, but even i am getting annoyed by the drop in post quality.
one way to increase post quality and decrease the amount of "Mikasa Best Girl" would be RP. a big RP, like OT! Civil War 2. but that's just my opinion.

true, but I suck in RP's though, and I'm too shy to even try to participate


though I think the reason why there are not many quality posts is that most of us are maybe busy with some Christmas and new year stuff irl
