Are the forums dead?

I haven't been here for a few years, and all I can see now is threads created by bots that are laying for almost over a year, and not much of content made by actual humans.
If anybody is still visiting these forums and this thread wasn't pushed out of view due to spambots - why is this board a wasteland now, what happened? Everybody lost interest, moved on to Alliedmods, or what?
