yeah as other folks have said forums are fairly slow (and this is where id normally make my "unless its the neopets boards" joke but those have long since chilled out). its just one of those things that you check in on, make a post or two, and go do something else for a bit. Now if you happen to be online at the same time as the person you are talking to then things can go at a bit of a decent pace but that has a lot of factors like. timezones.

this place is certainly popping off more than the forums on dappervolk are at least if that helps soothe your concern
