So yea... where is everyone?

I knew a few friends on here who did designs a few months ago to about a year ago, and the amount of people scoring designs has dropped. It seems like the community has dropped by 70% in the last few months.

I remember when people would get about 2,000+ to vote for a design. The last few numbers I have seen, even on the great designs, are only about 600-900. I know the economy sucks, and that people aren't buying stuff (threadless shirts) as much, but where is everyone?

What gives? Where is everyone going?
