Has MyLot been a tad quiet recently? Or am I in a cave?

It seems MyLot has been a tad quiet the last few days. Or maybe I've just been too busy, and haven't been interacting as much as I usually do. I won't bore you with the details of my Monday and Tuesday (stuff like getting an exam printed, turning in progress notes, seeing kid clients), but today (Wednesday), I finally have a bit of time to relax before heading off to see my afternoon kid client. Has MyLot seemed slow to you? Or do I have to emerge? The photo is of a cave at Twin Peaks, near Mt. Diablo, taken with slight telephoto from the trail below on the "back side" of the mountain.

It seems about the same as always. There are regulars and those that drift in and out.

Maybe I briefly became a drifter. I'll be around this evening if I don't go play music with a friend.

@JohnRoberts I tend to ake some kind of comment to my regular "friends" anyway. It's kind of like saying, "Hey, what's up?"

@TheHorse It also depends on how of those you regularly follow have posted. There are always numerous posts but if you can't relate to any....

It has been quiet for me. And i am quite intrigued with the cave.

There are many small caves near Mt.Diablo. There are also many man-made mine shafts.

It's seemed normal to me, but I think you have to be here or you don't get too much traffic. That cave looks intriguing.

We've hiked down to it from above. It's pretty cool. Not that deep, but a nice place to drink Gatorade and watch the scenery on a hot day.

I think I'm just losing motivation to respond or comment. I'm on here a lot and read more or less every new discussion over 18 hours or so but just can't motivate myself to write anything so end up making a handful of posts all day

I do think newer members have calmed down a bit with posting as they seem to be posting way less.

Sometimes I get that way. Can't think of anything to say. At that point, I have to step away for awhile. My muse always returns.

It has been quiet, at least for me. But I have blamed it in part to my computer. The machine has been awfully slow

Mine was slow this morning. So I deleted my cookies and recent activity and rebooted.

I'm not a good indicator of whether it's slow or not here since my time is always limited and I just pop on an off as time allows. Great picture of the cave

Glad it's not just me. I was starting to feel boring. But I think it's partially my fault. Too pooped to party.

@TheHorse that is for sure. The fact that spring is here would make people want to spend more time outside, away from their computers.

Someone suggested the "Spring" hypothesis. More people outside. That could be a contributor.

I'm afraid I have not been on much for a variety of reasons. It does seem a bit slow but some people are reporting good earnings so I guess they have found the site not quite so slow!! lol

Its been a little quieter than usual and I find that so many newbies are flooding in, but not rebuttal - so that makes for a slow go here. And so many new posts with absolutely NO CONTEXT which makes for no rebuttal on our part either

So some of the newbies don't yet understand that interaction is "where it's at"?
