This is a very quiet Bowl…
Have we gone back to hiding and talking offline and behind closed doors?

Sadly, it seems so. This is a safe place, so we should be able to get into anything and in truly surprised that we don't.

I wish I knew. I was surprised at how quiet this bowl had always been. There were just a few hundred members when I got in, but seemed to only be a handful posting. As the bowl grew, that hasn't changed much.

My take is a combination of factors:
1. People in our profession may be inclined as introverts.
2. They see nobody else is active so they quit checking in themselves.
3. Sonething I haven't considered our an not aware of.

I really don't know though, this is a great safe space where we can get anything off our chest or get others opinions or just have fun, so I don't get how quiet it is.
