This place is currently dead. Dead I say. D I E D - Dead.

No idea how to fix it.

(The new theme does not help. I am no longer happy with it. It needs to be brighter, but at the same time, not hurt the eyes. Probably a little more black in places.)

Might be coz ppl have got exams going on and courseworks due in. Easter is early this so schools/colleges/unis are trying to cram everthing in before the term ends.

No need to spam other forums. You know... the principle of not doing onto others what you don;t want done onto you... and I hate spam.

If you are a member of a forum, you can publicise this place if you like (on topic mentions, have it in your sig), but avoid spamming.

however a better way is to seed topics and drive discussions.

Notice how there are very few "new" discussions on here? most are continuations of existing topics.

What I used to do when the forums started was start a few new discussions every day. up to half a dozen. Not all of them will take off, but some will. Those who are waiting for a topic to discuss will have plenty of new material.

I also had two accounts (kinda like what i have now... "Admin" and "You") - one for official stuff, the other for personal views and to play devils advocate (this is a lign way back... time when were on [url=http://therevival.proboards18.com/]proboards[/url] - a place which had its highest amount of emmbers online june last year... which is surprising since we have not used them since 2005...).

I lost the motivation to do this quite a while ago (when the forums were a little too popular... Moderating was actually hard work!).

So when you are just browsing, see an article/news that makes you go "hmmm..." or "huh!" or even "eeeewwwww!" start a new topic on here. quote the first paragraph or two.

posters will fall out of the woodworks.

I think there is a saying about if you build it they will come.
