[quote][i]Originally posted by Ian[/i] Where are our users? I suspect that's a big raft of answers and not one single cause. Why did they leave? Is PH still as busy as years ago? I'm not sure if still being active on PH and not being in to FB car groups is reflective of all old members. I'm a fairly big consumer of FB car groups despite blaming them for the downfall of forums. Also old members having left is not what killed it. The real death is new members not joining. Log in details I can sort out no problem but its a when I get around to it issue as I can only do it on one laptop at home and I'm trying to not have computers run my life these days, poor excuse I know, shouldn't be dictated by my availability. Lurkers yes perhaps. Would new users join? That's the big one, but I also think that's a question about what the new paradigm looks like and not how to attract people to an old paradigm. Question for me is what can you do to become relevant and at the risk of being a gen Z cliche wanker, can you disrupt things sufficiently to gain share. That's such a bigger question than can we make a web site busy as for sure these days you're not just talking about a web site. You'd need a brand that spans and engages across platforms which is a major stickler as that also boils down to either a major body of produced content, or remarkable software. Both of which have a very poor ROI while you're starting. I've always dreamt fairly big and there are loads of examples of me talking about stuff and not doing it, mostly because the actual solutions are massive and if you're going to plan something you may as well plan it massive. On that note its quite clearly not going to be called CS if its going to be busy. If 1000 users a day is the aim - and that's the critical mass for the early 2000s CS experience - then what you're describing is just what happens when you put 1000 personalities in close proximity and give them the space to roughly abide by a framework of topics and a loose interest in the same thing. I can tell you more about how it needs to look like than what its called. [Edited on 31-01-2022 by Ian] [/quote]
