I observed that the reason why some active members became inactive in the forum is as result of lacks of campaigns
If someone wants to be in a campaign on this forum and not able to, that means the person is not a good poster. If the person earn enough merits and having quality posts, campaign managers will see them and take them. There was a time that mixers campaigns were limited on this forum just like this time that we have none and still many people are in campaigns. There are still many signature campaigns on this forum but just that good posters are the ones joining them.
It's not all about a good poster...I have observed that when people campaign fin they don't post as regular they post unlike when they are in the signature campaign, do you know that some people may like make five posts daily but when they are not in campaigns you will see that it hardly before they make at least five posts daily, so it's a signature campaign that keeps some accounts active in the forum, so many reputable members who is not in the forum make only one post daily or five posts weekly.
Are you actually talking about number of posts that people make when they are not in a signature campaign or old members being inactive in the forum due to limited signature campaigns? You know things won't be the same when you are working under instructions and you have an obligation to fulfill and when you are operating on your own free will. If we are talking about people being inactive it's a different thing, than saying they are just making one post a day and 5 a week. The fact that they are making posts show that their account is active and they haven't left the forum. It could be that since they don't have signature campaign at the moment that they are currently engaged in, they will reduce their level of posting, but that doesn't make them inactive. There is a big difference between a member being inactive and making less post. It could also be that they are doing more of reading than posting these days, that doesn't make them inactive.
