Is this forum dying?
Is it me, or is this forum dying? I remember about a year ago, there used to be a ton of posts every single day. Now there's barely any.
Personally, I think it is the separation of the forums that did it (CanEast, Off-Topic Can East, GTA, Off-Topic GTA, Can Buy&Sell, etc etc etc.. wtf?) Having one was so much more convenient, since I only had to check one section. It is too much going back and forth to check them all, especially when I don't have a lot of time.
Your thoughts?

Rep Power: 0 I pretty much feel the same.... I am not encouraged to post, since there are no posts.. nobody likes talking to themselves haha
But seriously, the lack of posts is enough justification to merge the forums again... it is getting to the point where even forum mods are never on anymore. You know who you are, mods
AznSaint: Yes they came together.. as a package LOL

Rep Power: 0 O1Coupe I totally agree with you! Ever since the seperation of all the forums the posts have died down for sure. I would like to see it as just the Canada For Sale forum and then just a CanEast forum. There was way more interaction with everyone this way.

Rep Power: 0 True to that. Too much enforcing seperated interests. Plus I think ppl are gradually getting tired of the 7th gen (err, at least I have) so there's less to talk about. Plus I assume ppl were less busy during the summer.

Rep Power: 0 I think interest in general is just waning for the 7th gens?? 
I post all the cool ish I find on CSI in the CanEast OT, but no one seems to view them
Alot of my posts only get like 25 views each
If this continues, not worth my time to gather the pics/vid links for you guys
Although, I do NOT miss those corny post-whoring threads that drove me nuts last year....

Rep Power: 0 I agree with 01coupe as well. The forums should be merged back together. That way you dont have to click all over the place and are more likely to read something. And if you are more likely to read something you are more likely to respond. Its all probabilites and mathematics. As long as important threads can be stickied to the top, then it shouldn't be a big problem bringing them back together.
Peace

I can do that, but it needs to be cool with alot more ppl than the ones that have posted here. ur talking the ottawa, montreal, london ppl.
I can make a poll, but you guys have to make others aware of it.
If it's done, I don't want to hear bitching that your post gets bumped to the 3rd page in 30mins and no one can see it anymore and **** like that.
Let me know.

Rep Power: 0 It's all good though... better too crowded then dead empty. As for threads that get bumped to the 3rd page in 30 minutes.... that's GOOD thing. It displays popularity, and you know people are reading your ****. 
I think you should keep the For Sales Canada section as it is... the rest of it--merge as one! I have no problems reading about guys in Ottawa setting up meets and stuff... and I don't think others do either. It's always good to hear guys getting together to have fun!

The Ottawa sub actually gets a ton of use by it's local members and was put in place because their posts were getting lost.
It would probably be a good idea to merge the GTA-Off Topic into GTA for starters since the OT gets all the use.
I'll see what the Ottawa guys are thinking regarding this.

Rep Power: 346 I vote on merging the forums back to the way they were. Having them seperated like that kept me from ever going into any of the other forums (like the GTA Forum) because I'm not from the GTA. I kinda felt like i'd be unwelcome if I went in there and posted a thread... that's why I never did. I'm sure I missed a lotta good topics of conversation and vise versa.

Rep Power: 291 There are alot of sub-forums I agree, it would be nice to narrow them down again,
I don't mind what is done to be honest, as long as I have a place to go and post shiat then thats all that matters!!!

Rep Power: 302 you guys can merge these forums if you want, but i'd like to keep an Ottawa subforum. i've noticed a big increase in Ottawa participation in meets and such ever since we got the subforum, so i don't want to see that go.
