Is B3ta in decline?
Am I right to think that the usage of this site is lower than it used to be? I haven’t seen any site stat’s but it seems to me that with the exception of OT (which seems about the same), /talk seems to have much less going on than it used to and QOTW doesn’t get as many answers as it used to or from as many people. IMO the quality of QOTW posts seems to be lower than it used to be.

It'll pick up again, I think it's just been poor QOTW recently
Plus, most of the old regulars don't often post on the main Q anymore, myself included.

Alt: Facebook

I currently have Facebook, Gmail, Etsy and Cracked open
but b3ta is the one I'm on the most by far. Speaking of that, I need to do some work.

Also, yes the QOTW does appear to be in decline, but I think that's because the best questions have already been asked. Plus there's now a tendency to make shitty puns out of it which are pretty annoying.

I stop reading QOTW posts as soon as someone uses "proceeded to" more than once.

B3ta has become a victim of it's own success IMHO...
...QOTW is a shadow of it's former self, I think part of this is because posters have become very disillusioned. From my own point of view it's become full of bad karma lately and the sense of fun has long gone. I know that a few old hands on QOTW agree with this which is why they don't post anymore.

The best way back would be to remove the reply function on QOTW posts. The not so funny entries simply died on their arse anyway and didn't need reams of ascii facepalms and ym responses to banish them from the Best Of page.

The fact that no-one can write anything about sex anymore without being jumped on is part of it
Anyone who has a triumph, moral or physical, is asked whether they drive an accord, sleep with prostitutes, etc. It's just stupid now.

Kroney makes a good point
Which I think can be extrapolated to QotW. Never read much of /talk so can't comment on that one, but look at the responses to some of the first couple of QotWs and you can see it took a while to hit its stride, though some of the Best stories are still pretty funny. Eventually it develops into a board where people start to tell stories properly, and people begin to write with a bit more style (ignoring all the variant erroneous spellings of 'cue'), and I think eventually, since a lot of the best writers from this era have drifted away to /talk, /OT or off b3ta altogether, it's been left with a large number of people desperate to imitate this writing style but not having any good stories to tell. Or just not being able to write with any style.

I didn't have any stories either
I decided to be creative this week, but ordinarily I find it's easier to just give up and talk bollocks with the people over here. However, is this just a sign of my increasing apathy and laziness? Would I have mustered a story or a joke for a sub-par question* nine months ago? I wonder sometimes whether I'm just too cynical now to think that I've got something worth typing up for public inspection.

*Edit: Not that I think this one's sub-par, it's had its moments this week.

I've always been very cautious with my stories
I must admit, I've always hated criticism on them, immature as that is. That's why I put time into most of my posts, taking up to an hour to type them and edit. So I only write a story if I think it's really worth telling, if I'm unsure, I just don't bother.

It's true though, all forums go through peaks and troughs. I stopped posting on QOTW a long time ago, it wasn't because of annoying posters, or trolls, or nested replies or whatever. I just ran out of anything interesting to talk about.

Hasn't stopped me banging on about nothing on /OT, but that's what it's for.
