Wasn't exactly what I was asking but there you go. I actually asked if
Matt had noticed a natural cycle of communities starting, dying,
reviving, peaking, dying... It was also in challenge to Matt saying
he'd never seen a community die earlier in the talk. I'm not a keen
metafilter person so prefered to hear what Derek Powazek had to say
later to the same question. Because in his book "design for communities"
he talks about this cycle in the last chapter as natural -

I'm surprised Bobbie hasn't said anything about my blog post yet, I know
he's aware of it ;)
Cheers
