It might be more accurate to say that this site isn't dying so much as this site is already dead. You're getting like 3 or so posts a day, and submissions have slowed to a record crawl. I don't have statistics to back this up here - merely observation - but MFGG's days aren't merely numbered, they're already behind us. The site was considered in a rut back in 2016 for Christ's sake, and that was back when the forums were still relatively bustling (compare it to now) and we had a decent flow of games and sprites. We still get a fair amount of sprite submissions, and I attribute that to us opening the gates to all Nintendo properties, but I don't think it'll be enough to revive interest and activity in the site.

With that said, your comment about being too busy for MFGG rang especially true for me. I'm in college, I have part-time work, I have finances to manage and I have goals in my life I want to achieve. The internet is still a part of my life, but in a more side-lined capacity than it once was. It's rather telling that MFGG's last breath of activity and fun was towards the end of Summer/early Fall last year when all of those oldbies had a reunion. It was a fun time! But it's pretty clear that wasn't meant to stick...

I never like being cynical, especially with a community I've stuck around for almost 15 years, but forget MFGG's glory days being behind us: MFGG having noteworthy activity at all is pretty far in the past at this rate. I give massive kudos to the guys running the site these days (shoutouts to @Mors, @Evil Yoshi Toes and @Hypernova); you guys have done a lot to improve the site and are a tight group of administration, but I don't think the community is currently showing signs of respectable life.

Just because it isn't some deserted ghost town doesn't mean it's got much time left, either.
