To be completely honest, there isn't really a whole lot going on these days, especially when it comes to some moderation. I have a feeling this board has some moderators and so who have left and were never replaced for one reason or another.
I'm really not sure how many individual people actually still use this forum, maybe it is a lot, but it seems to be less active than it used to.
blitz still moderates and activity dries up with volatility. When a direction is chosen, activity will pick up as it always does.
