I can't answer your questions definitively. There are many variables that could cause the differences in our activity levels. I could speculate, but what would be the point?
However, I can tell you that there was no mass exodus from Eagleland to The Border. Most Borderers who joined after the first year have never posted on their forum. Our slow but steady growth over the past 7+ years happened independently of the changes in their activity level.
As for your other question, I can't speak for Tim, but considering how sweet he is, I'm not surprised he made it a point to express his appreciation. When fans here finally sent their best wishes a little while after that, his representative thanked us, too. Tim and his camp are very gracious.
