Jamie123 Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 I know it's not as lively as it's been in the past, but since New Year it's slowed almost to a stop. It's almost the end of Tuesday, and the last time anyone posted was Saturday. Has the party moved somewhere else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everyone here could con all their introvert friends into joining, and we were to welcome them rather than scaring them off at the first sign of differing opinion, we might could grow it back. It would help if the mobile template supported all the features (e. g. there's no way to see site notifications in the browser on a mobile - no access to that bell at the top right, and no user menu - I know the software supports it as one of my fountain pen forums uses this same software).

mikbone Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 I’ve noticed that many blogs have become less active. Social media and technology will continue to evolve. Texting is so yesterday. Have you tried holographic group rooms or AI surrogates, how about the OASIS? Backroads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroTypical Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 I've noticed a slow and steady decline across my favorite 3 LDS-themed message boards (and half-dozen Facebook groups) starting before COVID. One of them is now pretty much totally dead. Thirdhour has certainly slowed a bit, but is still kicking. The trick is to look for all new messages here: https://thirdhour.org/forums/discover/ JohnsonJones and MrShorty 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentOne Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 I have been meaning to get my Easter music/thought thread going, but haven't because... um... I guess I've been prioritizing other stuff over figuring out an organizing principle and finding/choosing quotes and songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people just wake up and realise its an exercise in diminishing returns so they pack up and go do something with their lives, while others, continue to cultivate a sad ego driven persona, i presume, to counter balance an unhappy or unfulfilled life. Heh - well, you can't please everyone I guess. At the risk of going full-blown passive-aggressive, would you say your post here is an example of a sad ego driven persona, or a counter balance to an unhappy/unfulfilled life? From where I'm standing, it's not the heaviness of the subject that's an issue. The only thing that gets threads locked is an abundance of folks abusing the site rules, usually #1-3.

If nothing else, fountain pen people will continue using forums until the rest of you crazy people come to your senses and join us so that we don't have to resort to forums and snail mail to communicate with each other.

Ironhold Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Considering sharing a link to Third Hour on some of my other social media accounts to see if it juices engagement any. Might be an idea for everyone else to do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
