not many people on the forums?

Most people don't care about forums at all. Probably 70-80% of people play the game and don't touch the forums. Forums should never be used as an indicator of a game's popularity.

Don't forget the people who complain about the same things over and over again during the lull.

People think that on a good day when community reps are online and answering questions, that this time they might actually be heard. Really though, we only ever get pre-approved sanitary responses to inoffensive questions and that isn't likely to change. Even so, many feel that some dead horsebirds (RMT stuff/housing/etc) are still in need of some serious beating, and perhaps they are.

Yeah the forums are sleepy. All my started threads are dying (even the cool one about vampires). But I am sure that once Heavensward launches we will have a huge spike in forum activity. There was a pretty big one after the announcement as well. I remember every second thread was about Ishgard.
