If you want this place to survive, just start some threads, for fuck's sake. It's not difficult.

There's not enough regular posters, it's purely a numbers thing. It's a natural thing for some posters to drop out or have stuff happen in their lives where they post less, but if you have a large enough core of regular posters you can sustain that. Our problem is we never really got to those numbers so if three or four members stopped posting you really notice it. Very true. The number of regular (daily) posters here doesn't even run into double figures. If yourself or Dougie are AWOL for a day or two it's very noticeable. I do think those of us left need to make a bit more effort in posting regularly to keep the board going. Yeah, but this is an old cry. It's not going to happen. People are bored, talked out, uninspired, I don't know what.

Soz but I'm generally snowed under as it is.
Anyway, none of you would be interested in my History musings.

For me, i'm just busy sometimes and can't post a lot every day.
Others i guess are in the same boat, some are lazy, or feel they don't need to post.

It isn't remotely 'dead'. And if you compare the number of Interesting posts (interesting to me, anyway), it's still much livelier than BCB. Talking of BCB, ever since I joined in 2014 there were threads bemoaning how it was in decline, dying on its feet, and so on. In my view, Golden Age thinking is all about people feeling older and projecting that on to their circumstances. As for the current perceived malaise here, I think I will be around more once this fucking election is over and the regular posters start talking about stuff that I don't find alienating.

Well, it's hard with music, there's a lot I could post about, but there isn't much point here. No-one seems interested in new music much, and non-BCB core gets really short shrift.

We get too hung up on thread creation.
We need to respond to what we have more.

We get too hung up on thread creation. We need to respond to what we have more. Yeah I agree. I've been meaning to write something on the Kevin Rowland thread for example, but I want it to be something substantial and interesting rather than "Yeah some of his earlier records were pretty good" and so will do it when I can give it a bit of time. For me quality of posting is more important.

Totes Work has been hard for a while now. I don't have the time to write much these days and that's frustrating but there you go. I like reading peoples lengthier thoughts.

Just get cracking for fuck's sake. Waiting more than a couple of hours to respond is never a good idea.
Lazy pair of cunts. And then you'll both disappear for a week without so much as a by your leave!
