Yeah, I think it's a combination of things.
As others have mentioned, .hack kinda stopped having major updates to the franchise.
And I think a lot of it, for me at least,
is that the Gaia economy had a huge inflation problem
and that just made questing impossible.
Although, the recent change from gold to platinum is a big improvement.
And college and stuff and having a job is a time sucker for me.
Anyway, I'm back, but I'm mostly active Fri-Sun in the evenings
but I did accept any requests that have come through.
I don't think the Net Slum will be what it used to be,
but I hope we can get it active again. emotion_bigheart
