most of the former LYKers no longer spend time here (rarely), but I'm still hanging out with them on a regular basis.
Life's priority changed: most of them are busy with their family/life's priorities and not so much into posting on LYK. Compounded with the 5-hair boardwashing, the political fighting (all due to difference in opinions) between some pro-mainlander "leftists" and other LYK posters who otherwise disagree, which makes all other timid LYKers fled the board.
Occasionally, we still get regular visits from other posters back on LYK boards. Most of them these days are in "lurking" mode.
