Sep7agon dies within a few years with no new members joining and veteran members slowly but surely leaving.

Sep7agon slowly withers and died due to a lack of activity. It's hard enough now to find an interesting thread to post in. Even though the quality on bungie is shit, they do have quantity. I'd rather take a site that has like 10 C grade threads an hour than a site that has like 2 A grade threads an hour. And that's giving you guys too much credit. Your threads are usually shit too. Lol

I hear the flood of the old days had good threads though.

I hear the flood of the old days had good threads though. I'm always reluctant to rely on the judgement of others when nostalgia becomes a factor.That being said, I'd like to see some of the B.old threads and see what was God Tier back in the day. Wait, did you read the Cheerios story on B.next? Wasn't that at least upper B grade (I consider it A grade)?
Sep7agon will die a bloated diseased corpse if we don't get a handle on shitposting.I can't even post in this god damn boring forum tonight and I've been monitoring it for 3 hours already.There's like a 20% chance of seeing a useful thread at any given time.

And maybe a handful of Bs in its history.Most of the threads here suck balls.

Maybe we do need more posters.

I recall a big discussion about it.
At this moment in time, I like the look of the front page.There are 3 or 4 things worth discussing.I know we're all tired, but if the Flood is to endure we have to be louder than the shitposters.

There's a bit of sentimental attachment. How would one convince people to leave?What is B.net even like now?

About 70% of Sep7agon's current active community joined in the first 6 days. So that means that only 30% of the community joined over a period of about 7 months.

Surely there are others that remember this.We were supposed to regroup here and regather our wits. But we were disillusioned and we lost hope.I'm not saying we shouldn't be grateful for what Cheat and the admins have done. They are probably single handedly responsible for preserving this community. And it's comfortable here, and we're closer than ever.I am as patriotic as any poster here. But maybe we should at least consider returning if there ever comes a time when the Flood is danger of failing. Time enough has passed that we would be whispered as legends among the populace.And there's still holdouts there that we left behind...
