Death of the Forum?

Is this the end of the Forum as we know it?

I look down the "Updated" section on the right of the home page, and it all says either yesterday, or a week or so (sometimes more) was the last time someone posted.

I'm just wondering if the Forum's about to hit a death-spiral?

People are lazy and don't post when they see new threads or new posts, instead they browse and don't contribute, which causes the death spiral for a forum.

On the same topic, wtf happened to people? I remember when we had like over 9000 people online at once 24/7. Now it's usually just me online for several hours, then someone pops online and they dissapear again in a few seconds.

What do you people want from us D:

I don't post nearly as much as I used too XD

meh its one of those things, it's a phoenix style circle. Starts off popular then slowly dwindles then after so long just dies at which point the spammers come in which then brings back people mainly to bitch at the spammers for spamming then due to this life is reborn into the forum then the cycle starts anew

It will be fine- Probably...-waves hand-

What does SPAM actually stand for? (Other than Specailly Processed American Meat)

I'm not really sure that it stands for anything, I was just assuming it was to do with most peoples dislike for spam

Mine actually does that quite alot and it never shows new posts on the icon bit so i just have to look through each section for new threads and shizz

A good example of spam (if it were posted on itself).

Spam is usually messages that bring nothing to a topic, like

'I agree'

or

'That's funny'

I didn't think the forum was dying o_O sure people don't post as much as they used to.. but it's still pretty active.. I mean come on, 8 different people have posted in this thread and it's only been up a day.
