Why do people quit Quora?

I see a lot of people, a little too much of unrestrained opinions and joke questions nowadays on the website. I am contemplating quitting Quora. However, I'll be doing this at the cost of losing out fantastic opinions of a few people. Why do people normally quit Quora? I am not talking about people who just create an account just for the heck of it and then don't visit it as often or people who are simply not hard-working enough.

Three things would make me quit Quora.

Totalitarianism (Everything within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.)
Censorship (The type that leaves no traces of any buried content)
Evaporative Cooling Effect aka Stark Reduction of Quality (I'm getting 75 notifications a day, mostly new answers which are lackluster from dull people. The Quora Content Quality has definitely dramatically dropped. How boring.)

================
I've got 4 people here who are deactivating their account because of me, and rising. And no, it's not because of my feelings. It's because of attention whores, who like to bring others down to bring themselves up.

(Some of the people who are deactivated their accounts, have tributes to me in their profiles.)

Me

Alex Regueiro is on hiatus, stated in his profile.
Michaela Jayne just joined Quora yesterday, and has updated her profile about being disappointed in the website, straight after reading my deactivation answer.

Two random people who emailed me after me posting the Be Nice answer, who apparently follow me, have apparently deactivated their accounts (or not) because I did. I like it how they told me to come back (guilt?). They might post a tribute.

Oh and Elizabeth L. Mead is posting a tribute on her profile.

(I didn't ask for any of this. It just happened. :/ )
