All joking aside, it's probably because many and most chess themes have been already discussed in 9 years.

Most people still discuss the same things, and don't bother to look up a forum written 5 years ago.

Wow... guess the mods REALLY don't want any more of these threads.

I remember when there were rapid fire conversations, on dozens of topics, going on all day and night. I just looked at "Hot Topics" and the first one on page one had the most recent comment 6 minutes ago! I remember when it would have been 5 minutes ago.
