theres been less posts lately than usual in my opinion and the chats pretty empty too
maybe because people are back at school?

no i think its because most people are back at school.
i made a prediction a few days ago (which i told spherber, i think) that there would be a LOT less activity and almost NO ONE would be in the chats once everyone started school. im not starting until tuesday, so ill see if that proves true for me as well.
but yes, there are less posts than usual and most of the ones that are being made are either really random or just reactions to a previous post, unfortunately.
that, and i frequently find myself as the only one on the site often. an explanation for that would be that i have no life, but thats already a proven fact. ; ]

The loneliness grows every time I see a site regular leave from 7 to 3...
Then it is quickly remedied when I come home and jump right on here.

Yeah, I'll have to go with school on this one, considering that I started almost three weeks ago. (wow, school's going by fast...)
I've had a bunch of stress from school, just because I really want to try. But I try to manage to find time to get on here. It works usually, but sometimes I just don't have time.

Well over the summer people had vacation trips and such, then like most others say because of school. I still see lots of posts so I don't quite think this site has died off yet. Perhaps also that 403 error is causing people to lose faith?

well, I'm not dead on the forum (yet.)
but, we were talking about it in the chat and i think its because of school (I know I wont be here much after the 2nd/September, school starts)
But I'll try and come on as much as possible.
And 403 is putting me off a little, well, forcing me off.
And it seems to get busy around 7PM(GMT) which would be normal, as it would be like, early afternoon in America.
well, i'm HERE for twenty-four hours
but when i'm at school, i'll not able to open tdc, but i can write to tdc when i'm at school, we can take laptops to school
when there's a presentation, i'll go to tdc more on school

2 in the afternoon? hmm. i always thought it got really busy around 5 here. (i think aero said this before.) that would be 10 where you are gym, and midnight for aero.
hmm, i would be so tempted to go on TDC at school during iblock... but my teacher can see all the sites we go on so i dont know if that would be the best idea.

well, it starts getting busy at around 7GMT, but I normally come off around 10(GMT) and then there around 11-15 members on here, which is busy for me

The forum isn't dying, it has been shorter because of people going on vacations in summer and people starting school. I have been on smaller/less active forums and they were still nifty and they never died out (well one did, but thats because the owner stopped paying for the site) tdc is much to nifty to die, it just wont happen

Eh. At the current moment in time, there are 12 members online.
Dying? Nah... It IS a little slower than usual, I suppose.
Like some others said, it's probably because school started back. Another thing might be because I think we're starting to run out of Daft Punk related things to talk about. :|
When the new album comes out, it might attract some new people to join or some of the older members to come back. But right now, nothing new is really happening with DP, so... people just lose interest I guess.
But with that said, I know one thing: I LOVE THIS FORUM, and I'm not leaving anytime soon. :3

I have gone back to work starting today (I'm actually at work right now), so I doubt I'll be able to browse the club at a time as late as midnight, unless it's the weekend (that's Thursday and Friday, not Saturday and Sunday).

I go back to school on Tuesday, but my last period class is Website Arch 1, which I assume will give me a small window of internet, during said time I will cruise through here.
well, mines on september 8th :(

When I get back to school, I'll have like a million classes of Buisness Communication, which means computer room!
Hopefully TDC isn't blocked :P
