There's no good reason for it, but there's just something not quite the same about the new Wakeworld. Traffic (in non-wake at least) has to be way down. Boats & Accys is the only other forum I read anymore even before the switch, so can't comment on other areas of the site.
Every once in a while I accidentally pull up the old site with all those dead ads across the top, and I get a little nostalgic.
