Personally, I think Hacker News has a great design and a poor community. I guess...

Honest question, why have you stayed at HN for almost three years if it's a poor community?

Well, the community isn't "poor" -- it's just not for me.

I don't participate nearly as much as I used to. It's not like the only choices are "stay" and "leave".

Because if he left it would be even poorer.

Well, when I see post like that hitting the front page I'm really wondering about the community. And the worse part is, even if it's a lame post, it's not even generating interesting discussion.
