 Re: Forum is dying
Yes, it is dying, so you might as well go somewhere else.

 Re: Forum is dying
Seriously, it's been like this for at least 3 years. I don't think it's in danger of "dying" soon.
Unless Eagle pulls the plug.

 Re: Forum is dying
Give or take. With guests always roaming. And probably 20+ posters that post, but not weekly.

 Re: Forum is dying
I wouldn't dare call it a "nice" group, but due to its small size, it's manageable and relatively fun. Everybody plays their part well (apart from Thegun).

 Re: Forum is dying
I'm stating the obvious, but some old people need to come back. Not because they're classic posters but, (and no offense to Karl) some of them seemed to know how to promote it. If I remember correctly, Karl has a pretty busy life and doesn't have enough time for the forums as much as he once used to. If they reconciled (if I have the tinciest bit of correct memory of what happened in a nutshell) and each had a little time, something could happen. At worst they'd be posting here.
And I know some people will cringe, but some sort of merge with BOM & BO.com/Filmgasm should have happened.
But a it is now is still fun.

 Re: Forum is dying
Filmgasm died a while ago. And that's what those traitors get.

But a it is now is still fun. So is it worth following this site, as till now I just have been reading misc threads, until I finally joined, but there doesn't seem like much is happening here. While on BO.Com, on a Thursday at Noon, the site is popping with this many people: 60 users and 158 guests http://forums.boxoffice.com/

 Re: Forum is dying
I'd say this site has more informative posters on box office and quality of films. And we have a killer sports/tv/music section.
And our games are unique.

 Re: Forum is dying
Although we are a small group, and a lot of our other smart folks have gone, we still have a very good core. And despite our fighting, we are a close knit group.

Can I get back in the club? I took a several year hiatus.

What are the good days or nights here, as Saturday, sure isn't very active, except for 1 thread, the Friday Box Office Opening $ thread?

The Water Cooler has been a shell of itself for a while but the other forums like the critic's, sports, tv, BO, are still high quality

But in less than one day, they got the users to pay $400 or 1 month of future use.
