I'm more like confident in saying that they took a break from Defiance and found they like other games more so don't participate on the forums or in game any more... that would explain why some in various clans and on my friends list never log on any more. And like we all said to people in another thread, you need to take a break from this game at some point or it will drive you mad grinding etc. Even with just one character while some are trying to do that with two or more characters.

And Rakshasha (sorry if I got your name wrong, this was an EDIT addition), is right too. Most times only 15 to 30% of a game's population actually use forums. This has been true a lot of times. The ones that do use forums are often only doing it because they are bored, want to voice their opinions, or trying to make the game a certain way... or trying to make as much noise and drama to cause rumors to start up, etc. You know the spill... Happened with SWTOR and TERA and both survived their F2P switch and both survived changes before then too that involved new content, changing game content, nerfing, etc.

Very few people come to the forums generally just for community aspects...
