Today a new graph has been published showing the official Second Life Forum post counts to date, showing data between February 2011 to October 2012. The graph shows SL Forum and SL Answer posts declining more in 2012 under the average mark starting in May 2012 and dropping further during the summer months. It’s going to be interesting to see if the trend continues to go down during the final 3 months of 2012 or if the post count goes up to average levels in 2013.
Last year post counts stayed mostly above the average mark and then in 2012 for some reason the post counts dropped down hill.

Perhaps people are finding the answers they need from old posts and so don’t need to post new topics.

Yeah, maybe.
I am thinking many are switching/using SLUniverse Forums for news and opensim happenings etc.
