Ive been using this forum for 4 years or so now, with different accounts, I used to spend several hours every day on here and early on actually read most posts, but its just become unusable to me, its impossible to keep up with the flood of posts, and 99% of them just arent worth reading. Whats worse is that its impossible to find the few posts that are worth reading.

Its really sad but these days I need to get my bitcoin updates from google news or reddit.
I know how you feel. I, too, first check reddit for Bitcoin news these days. Despite that, however, the discussion here is still an order of magnitude better than is it on Reddit. Somehow, we managed to avoid most of the issues related to groupthink that Reddit has in part because of how every post is considered equal in terms of value here. Hopefully, with new forum technology we can recapture that spirit.
I neither can nor will attempt to convince you to stay today, but please give Bitcointalk another chance once the new forum software is deployed.
