It's hard to give an exact reason since a lot of people left for a variety of reason, but overall I would have to say currently it was mainly due to the change in rules and format of threads. Other than that currently the site is about the same. However I must add if we are going to compare the original update to now the site has changed a lot so much so that it is closer to the old layout, but by this point the damage has already been done and as a resut a lot of older members have left. Also nostalgia causes a lot of older members to think the old site was some spam and troll free place where the mods would apply justice around the clock and ban all the wrongdoers. When the fact was the spam and trolls now are just as bad as it was back then.

Why leave for such a stupid reason? Other than that currently the site is about the same.

Designs don't matter, if that's what you're talking about. Also nostalgia causes a lot of older members to think the old site was some spam and troll free place where the mods would apply justice around the clock and ban all the wrongdoers. When the fact was the spam and trolls now are just as bad as it was back then. That explains alot. (No sarcasm)

[quote]Why leave for such a stupid reason?[/quote] I wouldn't really say it is a stupid reason since looking at the rules now compared to back then they are drastically different. Even how a typical discussion goes about now is different than before. Nowadays it is fairly rare at least imo for a thread to have a lot of discussion going on at least among multiple different users. Also people left for far more retarded reasons such as the whole hashtag thing and the white background instead of black. [quote]Designs don't matter, if that's what you're talking about.[/quote] The design of this website was actually very important to a lot of people. Something as simple as the color of the background caused people to complain so much that the webteam finally made it so you can change the white background to black. Even the post order was something that was an issue when the update first launched. I am sure I am forgetting a couple other issues since there has been a lot of changes since the original update.
