What is the normal amount of lurve you get each day? Ask this question yesterday, and I’d say that there was no one left to give me lurve. I think I only got ten lurve, and that was all overnight when I wasn’t doing anything.
It’s not as if people weren’t GAing me. It’s hard to track how many GAs you get, but it seems like people were GAing me as much as they usually do. But not lurve yesterday.
Today was a different story. I think I get around 30 lurve a day, as a rough average. I’ve gotten that much already.
But I do think there are fewer people around, and those that are around are people who have been here forever. We’re all maxed out on each other. How could we not be?
There may be lurkers who hand out lurve but never say anything. I have no idea how to tell if they are there. But people do show up—uh, sign up, and then read but not write. That’s nice, but I always wonder about them. Why don’t they write? I think there are some people who don’t feel like they are good enough. Maybe it’s the moderation. They try to write and can’t do it well enough. Or maybe they just feel like they don’t have anything to say that anyone else would be interested in. Given the stuff we see here, it’s hard for me to credit that. Unless they feel like they don’t want to deal with what happens to people who write badly or who garner the disrespect of other jellies.
Dunno. But I can say that it seems slower lately. But that may just be a temporary thing. It’s exam season at colleges. Some of our younger jellies may be a bit busy catching up on all the studying they didn’t do while fluthering.
