Ever notice how slow the internet becomes during the times that nobody is making a fuss about something that isn't really that important?

No, the internet seems just as fast to me :p Just there's less going on or less to read, I guess, but I tend to avoid drama things anyway since they're pointless :p
I rather like it this way. Unless of course everyone's in on the drama/joke. Then it can be fun.
Yeah, but I have a theory that there is less to read because there are less people actively posting etc. because they are drawn less to the internet because there isn't as much stuff going on that interests them because there is no internet drama and most people tend to be interested in that stuff, even if they hate it. Weird stuff, yup. But I'm sure it's true. Maybe it works the other way, maybe it's a cycle, I dunno. But they go hand in hand.Quote:

I prefer it like this. People actually have thought-provoking, fun, or interesting conversations instead of mudslinging and whining.
You can have thought-provoking, fun and interesting mud-slinging, you know!
Well, maybe not exactly "thought-provoking". But definitely fun! :D
I guess it is fun when someone either 'leaves forever' or 'committs suicide'.
It doesn't happen enough, though. :(
I perfer light-hearted stupidity.
I'M LEAVING FOREVER! AND THEN COMMITTING SUICIDE!
But perhaps not in that order :D
Not really, no.Quote:

LJ-drama is always out there to entertain us. :)
I like it better this way only because I can log on, make my rounds, and then go play Animal Crossing. xD
I'm on the 'net less, and I'm happier that way. Although the drama of people saying "EoFF sucks." in their LJs and whatnot is missed a bit, as it kept things interesting.
If you go to enough forums, you never get short of drama. ;)
