No I did not.
That's how it works. You "fork" something, do a small change, then open a pull request back to the original. Then your "fork" gets abandoned until next time you want to do a PR.
My first guess was lots of projects going on each one's directions. Sorry for this comment. I should know better :(
This is perfectly normal on that site. Number of forks is actually correlated with number of *contributors*, not abandonment.
ACK.
