During the Chinese New Year period, it's always a time when major websites see a serious drop in traffic, and 51buy is no exception.
The forum's activity had diminished to a point where Zhou Xueyin began to wonder if netizens had found a new social platform and abandoned this one.
Especially on New Year's Eve and the first day of the New Year, the forum was deserted, with only a smattering of New Year's greetings posts.
But then again, over the few days of the Spring Festival, Zhou Xueyin was either accompanying her parents on family visits or sitting in front of the computer, browsing the forum and sighing at the meager number of online users.
She had planned to take photos at the temple fair, but upon arriving at the entrance and seeing the long queue and the crowded scene, she lost interest instantly, took a few hasty photos at the entrance, and beat a swift retreat.
