I left because the personal axe grinding between a good number of the members seemed to occupy most of the threads, as opposed to posts containing real content. While I do see insightful stuff here, it is still heavily laden with adolescent tit-for-tat flame wars.
I check in from time to time and there is one thing I have noticed...........nothing changes. This is the forum that time forgot! I still check in because I value some of what I see here. Yet, I find more vibrant and informed discussion on a number of other forums. T4T isn't as culty as it once was. Many people out there are familiar with the concepts and are in many cases less dogmatic about them.
I'll continue to check in, and may even post, but there is a reason these rooms are empty and it has very little to do with the subject matter.
I have to agree in full. The serious discussion is gone, or nearly so. I don't see it returning.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
