did the ascension merger/sale/whatever cause a lot of people to lose interest? the retarded world and general chat scroll is still there but feels different in a ship of theseus kind of way. how many true epocheads remain from three weeks ago? how many from months/years ago? am i going schizo

Is it even any point in trying to stream unless you use mic and cam?
I refuse to use cam because I'm too self conscious, and using mic is hard because I have a thick awful Swedish accent that makes me sound like a retard.
