everyone magically turning up activity when we got to guys like Magic, Jordan, Bird etc. We are right dab in the middle of that and it's still the same people being active and the same people not being active.
The majority of the activity is off-topic stuff anyways.

Spence needs to sharpen the axe and replace the sucky people. We actually have a half-decent waiting list.

Everyone has finals. Plus, you're the only one who doesn't seem to get that it sucks to write an article regardless of the payout. So yeah, it's not surprising that we don't see one-a-day, especially when we're all studying.

I think the article system is much better this way. To get the reward right away is awesome.

Finals haven't been going on for weeks.. the activity has been the same for the past two weeks.
What does writing articles have to do with anything, they were merely an example but the excuse of "school is getting in the way" is stupid.
I work and go to school full-time so while yes I do have the ability to be on the forums while I'm at work as is the case right now that doesn't mean I'm not busy.

I work and go to school full-time so while yes I do have the ability to be on the forums while I'm at work as is the case right now that doesn't mean I'm not busy. I've been studying for my finals for about ten days, since the second I got on the train to come back to school. The week before that everyone was home for Thanksgiving. I don't want to be a dick here, but I don't think you realize just how much time goes into this for us (the studying). It's not a one night or even one week thing. |

I don't know but for me, Freshman year of college is always the easiest. It only gets harder. Completely disagree. It gets much easier. You have no idea what to expect freshman year. You think you can do what got you by in HS but you can't at all. I kept falling behind freshman year because I misjudged just how much work there was. You learn from your mistakes from freshman year and it just gets easier to handle. Plus things like 8 hours of studying in a day is so foreign freshman year and so typical now. |
