pvn,

New, smart posters that come to politics for the first time (or return after a hiatus) don't only start new threads. They also post intelligent replies to threads started by others. I know I'm not the most brilliant political debater ever, but I added some reasonable discourse to a few threads, none of which I started. Looking only at crappy threads started by low post count n00bs and neglecting the well-thought-out replies to threads started by regulars is not at all a fair analysis of the change in population.
