Sure, people like familiarity, but if the aim is to bring new members (sometimes with no affiliation to any board whatsoever before) then that a surefire way to turn noobs off right quick.

Either way, yeah, seems a little slower.
Your comment displays the elitetest attitude that will drive posters away. Just saying.

Elitist what? I'm still not sure if you are saying it is slower than the old board or not. :?

Who are those ten or so? I actually think it might be closer to five

I actually agree with you.
I agree with that as well. There are a handful of thread starters that people get involved with just because. Some of these are recycling the same boring shit ad-nauseam, but the username that posted it peaks interest.

The problem also lies in board allegiances. If you aren't part of the "in" crowd, then threads started die quickly.

Is that what you think happens to your post, "the in crowd"? Perhaps the topics you post about don't excite people or are obvious and need no response

My posts are usually about as relevant as yours, NotAgain. That wasn't the point.

That really ought to drive traffic to the board. Good job complaining about activity then shutting someone out of future conversations
