Well, seasick, we probably all go through it for one reason or another. IMHO, This forum and every other forum is like a supermarket. Many, many choices. Choose what we like. Leave what we don't.
I also think that we change as we 'mature' in any setting. When we first arrive anywhere, there's a good amount of excitement or anticipation or whatever, primarily because it's new and mostly unknown to us.
The perceived value, and the actual value is tremendous.
As we develop and mature in the setting, it becomes common and sometimes boring. The actual value is still there, but we don't see it as tremendous because we're used to it. The more we visit, the more commonplace it becomes. :|
But to a newcomer, it's still an amazing amount of knowlege and information in one place. And the important thing to remember is that what originally lit us up is still here. That didn't change, but we have.
It's not as exciting as it used to be, but I hope it doesn't go away. 8)
