Like a Q sandwich
Constant shilling for 4 months, moving boards, public exposure, dilution of the pool of anons (the board early on was MUCH sharper) etc. has slowly degraded things to the current state.
Also, any oldfags that have been around and understand Q know that the past few months have been Q taking us by the hand and toeing us close to the edge.
Now, we are in a holding pattern where Q turns to us every few minutes and says "we aren't jumping yet, just hang tight a little longer." Naturally, the quantity and quality of information from Q has dropped off dramatically as a result.
Since we are mostly treading water at this point and waiting, there isn't as much to dig or to connect, and thus the quality of our content has dipped as well.
At this point, we can dig on what little crumbs are given in the mean time, but you won't see a true resurgence of the board until the show starts and there is more meat on the bone to work with.
