Forum Dead?

yeah just been a little slow. I am sure with congress back in session we will have some good topics in the near future.

Things are slow again, kinda disappointed, there are so MANY things happening that need to be discussed from the primary race, SCOTUS soon to rule on Obamacare, the recent executive orders, the blatant push for extreme liberal views.

Open to any suggestions!

Just a little feedback from someone who has some experience with running a forum:

1. 
   
   
2. If you've skipped the first four observations, this one sums them up: a steady stream of new participants is required. Attracting them, then keeping them is the hardest part about making a forum successful. Failure to attract and hold new forum members will cause the forum to wither and die.

We need this!!!!

I fear that there can be no more civilized talk among the left and right at this point. Either one understands the Constitution and is spending all their time and money on preparation for the upcoming upheaval or you think the government is the faunt of all rights and powers and you're getting ready to stuff ballot boxes and push for more generational theft and "redistribution" from the worker's pockets into yours.

It's no use attempting to reason with a liberal. Sorry, Yonni.

I hear ya!

But you all are welcome to vent here as therapy to all the frustrations going on, there is a yearly expense to keep the domain name for this place that is due in May, just trying to figure to see if it is worth renewing.

This forum has some lively spurts every once and awile, but is is far too dominated by a few posters with radical opinions that quickly take to name calling and bashing. Every moderator but me openly despises the left (am I still a mod?) and I noticed a recent poster who used the same combative tactics, but had liberal views was quickly banned for behavior that others have been getting away with all along. This forum is dying because we are killing it. The religion sub forum was very active for a while but because what I and a few others had to say was so offensive to the majority, it was killed. Yet fatbass can say stupid shit like the government is going to attack the people and no one hardly takes notice because that kind of rubbish has become the norm of this site, and is the cause of its stagnation and demise.
