I think the products have little to do with the forum activity. None to be direct. Other forums are very active and I did not notice any declining participation. Especially true for Planet-9 which has a very enthusiastic 98x owner base.

I feel the participation decline was triggered with the forum's software upgrade from version 1 to 2. Many special characters, regular contributors and participants disappeared after the upgrade and somehow the forum never recovered. This upgrade has been discussed to death in many threads so I won't elaborate more on this.

The key to this forum are it's members... not the products, not the software, not even the moderators (nothing ill meant). So hats off to all those members who actively contribute and participate! wink

RC, for sure you will tag along. I think in your heart you enjoy the sometimes heated discussions here too. You just have to see through all the bullsh*t and never ever take anything personal wink
