This reply is slightly off topic from the OP but on topic with the discussion but here goes .. haha

The thing with forums is they start off with a hype, the hype wears off and activity slowly drops. Then the "this forum is dieing" threads start and new users see these and don't bother to sign up. A forum can only go as far as the users are willing to take it, the staff team is small, they don't have 100k friends they can invite to the forum, they can only do so much and then enforce the rules to keep the place nice and chill. It's up to us, the users, to try and bring in new members, to post content that attracts returning and new users.

I really don't blame forum owners for selling their forums when it starts to go down hill and they get a juicy offer. If the forums continue to grow then the owners are less likely to sell because the forum is still going somewhere. Users play a huge influence in the decision to sell or not. Not by their opinion but by their actions to keep the forum growing.

Now I'm speaking all high and mighty but I personally haven't done anything to help SBB grow yet but I do have some plans to hopefully attract 100's of new users soon. If everybody got two people to sign up and post a little and those two people got two people to do the same the forum would start to grow rapidly. It's the same concept as this post: https://supremebb.net/showthread.php?tid...1#pid18631.

True that, and hey you contribute more than enough

So you're saying that SBB is dying, whilst it isn't, yet I also haven't seen you post at all. Kinda, what's the word... hypocritical? No, wrong, yeah that's the word. That's just wrong, if you're worried about activity, post with the rest of us. They're not gonna sell anytime soon, so you don't need to worry about that.

Idk why you posted this when your barley even active on the forum.

The reason why reality was sold was because it had such a bad reputation. People would stop joining due to the bad name we had and eventually people got inactive and we couldn't advertise anywhere due to having leaks. Whether we'll sell in the future I really don't know. I don't wanna promise anything. However, I highly doubt we woul within the next two years.

This forum isn't dying at all. We've had a few incidents here and there with members but they were all peacefully resolved (most of them), I am sure. SBB is a nice community needing a bit more activity and is growing constantly.

It will either be sold or die. That is reality.

Funny you say that cause the forum's already dying. Some sort of contest should be held!

Funny you say that as you're not active.
