the near violent reaction from the community upon hearing, both on and off the forums as well as in-game, disproves that a small majority would participate.

The loud complaining from the loud minority doesn't mean anything.

Why do you think we don’t have more positive and fun threads like your project 86 thread or Ultra’s fastest mod set thread?

I do know that generally people will take the time to complain about something rather than praise something, but if the game is in such a good state then why aren’t we seeing more positive and fun threads?

You answered your question in the first half of the sentence. I notice people coming here for 3 things: complaining about something, looking for news, and asking strategy/mechanics questions. People like myself who are positive about the game and are having fun don't feel the need to make a thread regularly expressing our enjoyment of the game as it doesn't really do anything for anyone.

Really? You think threads like TVFs and Ultras aren’t good for the forums? I happen to think they are and wish there was more of it here. I personally struggle with what positive fun thread I could contribute and that doesn’t sit well with me.

As much as I’ve not been a fan of CGDF in a lot of threads and posts, I can say that some do add fun and positivity to the forums. I think if the game were in a better state we might even see more of that.

But TVFs is not a thread about expressing enjoyment, it is about a project in game, and yes it is great to see these threads. There are many threads on a daily basis that are not negative, its just anytime CG says or does anything there are posters who show up to complain and nothing else. The reason is that if you read something that CG says and go "cool, that sounds good" you are unlikely to create a "I agree with you CG" thread.

I didn’t post about threads expressing enjoyment. You made that up and applied it to what I actually asked and posted.

I was very specific about fun project threads, not, Hey CG, we love you, keep up the good work!

I believe that if the game were in a better state that we’d see a lot more fun project posts or just fun posts in general.

There are a ton of us that love this game and really just want it to be more enjoyable. I’m doing my best to find fun things to do in game and maybe it’s just burn out or same old same old, but it’s gong tougher to get excited about logging in lately.
