About a year ago, the place was also very quiet ... but all it takes is a few people to participate, and I try to participate actively. It's not quantity, it's quality that counts.
The truth (as I see it) is the Cafe Lounge is a mechanism to support the site and get a little back ... It is also a place with a mechanism for some private conversation using PMs, if that's something you want to take advantage of.
It was alot more valuable in the days when certain discussion was allowed ... I don't remember when it was "advertised" as a place for a hook-up ....
