    so then, should we drop them off the front page if they don't participate? It may not be that they have no interest, it may be they have no time - I know that during the last major project (code named: hell on earth) I wasn't exactly the most active person for 3 months...

    @AnonJr Wait a minute, I never said such a thing! I'm on the first page myself and my participation hasn't been strong either. It was just an observation; we're human beings, we have a life. But it's still a bit worrying to have so many inactive top users on SU. There has to be a reason behind this, no? Commented Oct 22, 2009 at 18:12
