Hey Mark, I've noticed that the smart people grow quiet here but don't go away. (Unless you count Guerilla) The idiots, however, are blossoming like it's WaFo these days.
Sadly, no, there isn't a 'general internet' forum I know of that's any better. Maybe facebook a bit. I do spend some time on Bitcointalk though; there's some general talk in there but it's mainly bitcoin talk afterall. I'll stick around here and grow more quiet too I suppose... It's getting hard putting up with all this juvenile crap.
