Just when I think I have a really good thing going, most of the donks and maniacs seem to have disappeared from Poker Stars.  Been playing a ton of $.25 NLO8 ring games over the past 2+ months and you can always pretty much count on a bunch of money going in pre-flop (at most times anyway). Plus, there's a ton of chasers that are usually good for calling $.50-$1  trying to chase low or a 4-outer after the flop.
 
Well, the last 4 days this has absolutely flip-flopped.  There's a crap load of games going but the VP$IP has been running between 20-30% or lower, with crappy avg pots of $1-$2!  Even when you find a game slightly better than that, people aren't calling anything... almost any pre-flop agression means a round of folds in most cases.  I just don't get what could have changed.  I thought that this 2X PS FPP special would have brought more donks out but it seems to have done the opposite.
 
There are about a half dozen ridiculously tight players that are sitting down at 4-8 tables each and helping to just kill the action. Now, I'm a pretty tight player myself, but these guys are ridiculous!  I'm talking about VP$IP of between 3-8% for the most part.  These guys pretty much just sit there and only play hands like AA2x or AA3x, etc and then usually push all in with thieir huge stack of $5.  Now sure, everyone has the right to play, but mostly all of these guys are losing players, so I just dont get it.  The whole thing just seems really wierd... not only are they killing $ pot action but nobody is getting any VPPs cuz most of the pots are a joke!
 
Anyone know what's going on?
