Is the Civ3 Forum dying?
It seems to be getting slower and slower over the past weeks.
Any reason? or am I wrong?

What do you mean by slower?
Longer loading times or longer times to wait for reply?

I believe it has been more posts per/day since civ3.com opened. But the most posts are made around eight PM GMT.

During the week I log on for a while about the same time every day. There is always at least one page of "new reply" threads

Slow or not, things will explode once the game is released!

Actually, I was feeling the same way about the forum for the last few days, mainly because of the outburst of posts and threads on multiplayer, which I don't care about as much as many other people here do.

I would have thought the opposite, with everyone playing rather than posting 'n' all.

Good point, we'll just have to see what happens.

I wouldn't worry about it. In just 17 days, civ3 will be released and this forum will "explode" with activity.
