also many people join and post for a while ... then they slip away.
It is hard for our little community to get too big before it is hard to keep up with the activity .... and then it wants to split into smaller groups.

Nov. 28 is roughly the day political sections were expelled.

the join rate over the last ten days has plummetted to .7 / day

it was low before that too

some of that is probably the holidays, some of it a result of the political ban.   however i suspect that nhliberty.org has picked up the slack and the overall join rate of NH pro liberty forums is up.

I wonder if the decline in join rate is commensurate with the recent decline in signal-to-noise.  ...hmmm.

Could it be that Ron Paul has inadvertently hurt the liberty movement by failing in the midst of unreasonable expectations?

I agree.   This is a good lesson for those foolish enough to set lofty goals.   

If you never attempt anything, you'll never fail.   Trying is for suckers.

No, it's a valid point/question. There has been a lot of people expressing disappointment on the FTL boards and on the FSP mailing list about NH's failure to deliver better numbers for Ron Paul. They're being unreasonable, of course. Like I said: "unreasonable expectations". Is it not possible to talk calmly about this subject without people getting so defensive?

The sarcasm should've been obvious.

My response to your initial post is also valid.   Setting goals, even unattainable ones, is worthwhile.   Do you see how dissatisfied the Republican base is with McCain?  Even if they weren't ready to vote RP, Paul's authenticity exposed the rest as frauds.   Just being on the stage and re-framing the public debate is a small victory for libertarian ideas.

With any hope or desire you risk disappointment.     You can either become a Buddhist or you can build from your discontent.
