[QUOTE="ridered3, post: 1571544, member: 1371"] I do what I can around here. In my opinion it’s multiple things or easily summarized as “all of it”. Big Rides: There’s not as many big rides (RBD, Harlan Memorial, Crawling for Reid, FebJam, Hardline Rides, etc) to talk about for months leading up to it and then getting a bunch of stories after the rides. Trail Rides: Either people are riding less or sharing about their riding on here less, but honestly not sure which it is. I’ve always looked at posting Trail Rides as “I’m going to be here on these days. If we meet up great. If we don’t, oh well”. I always try to add pictures and a write up so maybe someone else sees them and it entices them to go visit a park or try an obstacle. Throwing [USER=7368]@jeeptj99[/USER] under the bus because it’s fun and I can, he takes like three photos on a given weekend of riding and may share them on here like 4 months later in the “Favorite Wheeling Pics” thread. Meanwhile we average a couple of hundred iPhone pictures for every wheeling trip. Build Threads: While there are some still getting updates as there are updates to share, there is plenty more that could be shared. [USER=5925]@Bebop[/USER] has done enough of a rebuild on the juggy to warrant a thread, but I haven’t done it yet. So I’m guilty there. 4 Sail: What got most of the folks on here was an awesome 4cell section. Parts were readily available and the prices were at or below market value since it was going to a fellow wheeler. Now it’s thrown on Marketplace or Craigslist without it ever seeing the light of day here (although with lack of views here it’s understandable too). Life: Gets busy and priorities change. Some fade away into other hobbies and some put it on the back burner and circle back to it later. Post Whores: While they could be annoying at times, they always kept the discussions flowing and various topics and thread derails came about from their post whoring. I’m sure I’ll think of some other issues as well. Meanwhile Irate4x4 got started up and is always quite busy with chit chat topics, threads, some For Sale stuff and some Ride stuff. It’ll never be like Pirate or here in it’s prime but it’s something at least to say Forums aren’t completely dead. [/QUOTE]
