That isn't really accurate. There are quite a few other participants here. You may not notice because you've only been visiting occasionally lately.
You need to believe that. I do not.
The other participation is incidental to nothing.
The main attraction is the dysfunction

"The arguments and insults continue."
Unfortunately, a small number of people continue to keep them going. Since your post includes comments about who is the "worst songwriter" and references to "ladies," I think it's fair to say you're participating in that dynamic rather than standing apart from it..
You are prominent and ever-present amongst that small number.
Leave my name out if it and convince Dom to do the same and I'm out of it.
"The degenerative output continues."
The quality of songwriting is subjective. Different listeners will have different opinions, and that's always been true.
"The song content is a non concern."
This is still a songwriting site, and people continue to post songs, reviews, and collaborations. That's ultimately the reason most of us are here.
Not in reality. Just words. In reality, this site's main attraction is acrimony and virtue signalling from people like you. Songwriting faded as a primary effort a long time ago.
As for me, I'd rather discuss songs than personalities. There's already enough of the latter.
YET, somehow you are always here for the food fight. Are you not?

Leave me out of it and I'll stay out.
