Attention all posters.
This is your captain speaking.
Please desist from all personal slites and bad speling.
Be noice to each uvver.
Don't make narsty jokes. There are a lot of woonded people here who don't like jokes. In fact jokes make them feel more woonded. If possible listen and let them be as miserable as possible. They prefer misery. That way this forum can stay or even become more miserable. And lonely.

That's okay, I guess. As I said somewhere else: this forum is weird... I guess it's supposed to be this way. lol

I've been here on and off for several years, and I think it's the times. Social media offers faster, more visual interaction with a much wider range of people across a wider spectrum of topics. Forums that you have to actively go looking for don't have the same appeal.

We've always been small, but it shows now that people have subreddits and Facebook groups and Twitter hashtags for loneliness and mental health, too. A lot of people come for quick solutions (we don't have them) or get frustrated too easily by disagreements online, so new regulars are scarce.

Still worth stopping in, just not going to be able to compete with how popular forums were 5, 10, or 15 years ago.

Forums seems more suited for Introverts? I tried using reddit and I find it annoying af. To me Reddit feels like an extreme echo chamber of group think. Reddit and similar don't really lend themselves to diverse thinking. Unless it's modded by someone like that.

Agreed. I miss forums being active. It seems like there’s always a lot of readers and new members but not nearly the levels of posts that should bring.

There are some regulars however...
