You can make this argument as much as you want, but the fact of the matter is that these people miss the "old Bnet", before Reach. In many peoples eyes it was a "better", simpler time.
I must admit, I do not entirely understand what you are trying to get at. What makes it the "old" B.net, pre-Reach, which is so different to B.net post-Reach. The main thing Reach changed, is discussions, which I can see could get repetitive. Aside from that, and a slightly different community, I do not really understand what you mean by the "better," Bnet in the past.

Honestly, why do most people go on the internet in the first place? Because they're bored. And with the lack of anything going on here at the moment, I don't blame many people for leaving. Sure, I personally feel like they're missing out for leaving, but you have to see it through their prospective.
"You were willing to give the idea of change a shot, but you still didn't like how Reach turned out due to other reasons. You say to yourself, sure I'll stick around to see whats happening next, maybe I'll even get hyped up like the good 'ol days. Then Bungie goes dark, and your left bored, again." If your not a dedicated member why stay?
I do not blame anyone either, it's entirely their choice. I do not, however, agree that there is a lack of goings on. There is still ample activity in the majority of forums, and I regularly see intriguing and original threads.
What do you mean by a "dedicated" member, or more, what is a member that is not dedicated? If a member who is not dedicated is only there for news, then I agree, there is little reason to stay. However, a large number of members enjoy discussions in the Flood, or in groups, which doesn't really require any dedication. These members won't necessarily get bored, as they can continue to have discussions, and so do have a reason to stay.
