not many people on the forums?

[saber_alter]

Everyone says this game is really popular but to me it seems like the traffic on the forums are very slow and almost dead?

its because most of us on the forums are the ones who like being vocal about things in games, or are complaining about something/felt the need to post after random lurking.
a lot of people just browse, no need to post. the game doesn't obligate it, but this exists so people can have a voice (a minor voice, but a voice)
