Plus a lot of the action has moved to social media and is just strangling traditional forums! Seem like only the big ones like Arfcom, BladeForums, etc...are doing well. Us little guys can't make a go of it anymore. It doesn't help that Google and other search giants are systematically waging war against gun and knife sites! We can't get the page rankings to even be found when searching!Speedy's post made me wonder if all my off topic and food and beverage posts were dragging the forum down.
I have read a few times that forums aren't favored by younger people so they are dying out as we old fogeys die out.
I don't get the distinction between forums and social media. It seems to me that forums are similar to Facebook/reddit etc. where we publish everything from profundity to embarrassing confessions.
ya, I’m not posting anything anymore as it’s all off topic & will slowly fade away
