Bagatelle,
No, seriously... this is something we're all kinda wondering and want to work on improving. The community has had this discussion before in our annual angsty TFP Nut Up or Shut Up identity crisis thread. Attracting new members is of utmost concern for the community because new raw materials make for such a better discussion forum. TFP's goal is to attract mature adults of all ages and occupations and background. We want wacky hobbies and funny fetishes and cool stories. I can't say why new people show up and leave but many of us "Active Users" have really tried to encourage new members to latch on and suck this magical teat for all its worth. Recent example? Where the hell is CDWonderful's crazy girlfriend? She posted like umpty-million good comments and then disappeared off the radar like a sex-crazed Amelia Earhart. People come and go all the time without warning. That's life, I guess.
