The community is dying

[Bannanachair]

Hey, remember when people were posting "there's too much OOC and not enough roleplaying"? Well, now there's basically none of either. Is this community dying, or are we salvageable? I have literally no friends out there in the real world and you guys are all the closest things I have to friends so it's somewhat saddening to watch you all leave, one at a time. I want to try to keep the community alive, but at the same time I want to know how much of it there is left so that I can set realistic goals for what to try to do to keep the community alive. As such I would like everyone to answer the following handful of questions:

1) How regularly do you log on here?
2) How long do you think you will remain here for?
3) Do you want to revive the community?
4) I had a few more questions but I forgot what they were, but you basically get the gist of the sort of stuff I'm asking by now, I would hope, so fill in more related details as necessary.

1) Actually pretty often. I could use a break to be honest.

2) Not a damn clue. I'll do whatever.

3) I wouldn't be happy if this dies, but I'm not one for effort, so I personally wouldn't go out of my way to try and revive it

4) Nothing really. I'm just lazy.

I log on significantly less now-a-days, but I still check in decently often to see what's going on and to keep replying to my ISRPs.
As of late, I've been thoroughly engrossed in the game S.t.a.l.k.e.r: Shadow of Chernobyl, which has taken up a lot of my time.

To answer the actual questions out of boredom


1) How regularly do you log on here?
Maybe once or twice a day, if at all.

2) How long do you think you will remain here for? Likely until this place dies, both because of my ISRPs, and because I have a responsibility as a mod to stick around.

3) Do you want to revive the community?
Not particularly. We've had our fun, we've made our friends, and we've written our stories. Everyone is going to grow up soon enough and start taking on more school/job related responsibilities, or often times both, and we'll get too busy for this place. It'd be a lesson in futility to make any attempts to bring this community back. 

4) I had a few more questions but I forgot what they were, but you basically get the gist of the sort of stuff I'm asking by now, I would hope, so fill in more related details as necessary. Good job

1) Every other day, mainly to check one RP I participate in that has been inactive for some time (Odd and Slightly Dangerous Adventures of Life).
2) As much as I can get out of the community, the longer I'll stay. I've had no plans of quitting.
3) Yeah! I've noticed a steady decline in threads. And new ones either have no people joining, or the creator doesn't start with the people that joined.

I have literally no friends

Same



1) How regularly do you log on here?
I look here every day, mostly to check for notifications, replies, or new threads

2) How long do you think you will remain here for?

3) Do you want to revive the community?
Depends. What are we reviving? How? You don't have to answer these if you don't know; I'm just saying that's what my answer depends on.

4) I had a few more questions but I forgot what they were, but you basically get the gist of the sort of stuff I'm asking by now, I would hope, so fill in more related details as necessary.

Will this suffice?

when me and lego are the only one still making RP shit, there's something wrong.

[hygenisthygenist]

Perhaps it is simply coming close to the time where we will have to formally dissolve this forum. Keep in touch, everyone.

[Eternity 2.0]

1) How regularly do you log on here?
I just got back from roughly 4 months of not logging in at all, but now I'm here pretty regularly. Not that I actually talk or do anything useful.

2) How long do you think you will remain here for?
Eh, until I just leave without warning again.

3) Do you want to revive the community?

I wouldn't be happy if this dies, but I'm not one for effort, so I personally wouldn't go out of my way to try and revive it

4) I had a few more questions but I forgot what they were, but you basically get the gist of the sort of stuff I'm asking by now, I would hope, so fill in more related details as necessary.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

1) How regularly do you log on here? I have it as my first tab most of the time. Does that answer your question?
2) How long do you think you will remain here for? I have no plans to leave.
3) Do you want to revive the community? Yes but chances are it won't work. Do defibrillators work on metaphorical concepts?
4) I had a few more questions but I forgot what they were, but you basically get the gist of the sort of stuff I'm asking by now, I would hope, so fill in more related details as necessary. We need a defibrillator.

the community will die

we will stop talking to one another besides those that we decide are close friends.

1. Quite often, sometimes I don't post when I do but I usually try to. Like Purring I look for notifications or messages usually, though I hardly get any these days.
2. As long as someone else is here I will make sure to look in. I'm probably never going back to Rococks after they killed PW but I was over that site by then anyway. 
3. I wouldn't mind it but honestly there isn't much we can do from here. People may come back and people may leave but honestly it's not terrible right now. 
4. I had a few more answers but I forgot what they were, but you basically get the gist of the sort of ways I'm going to answer by now, I would hope.

1. Maybe once every few weeks.
2. I'm unsure.
3. It doesn't really matter, I only really get on when bored in school. Maybe for a little bit of nostalgia.
4. I've just lost interest after my first week or so of Band Camp.

1) How regularly do you log on here?


Once a day, mostly to check my messages for any D&D updates.

2) How long do you think you will remain here for?


Probably about a year or so. BC was my only option to join D&D/Warhammer/Whatever, and now that I have other sources I don't see any interest. Once my handful of friends are gone, I'm gone.

3) Do you want to revive the community?

Nope. Best bet is to try to lure in any decent person on the roblox forums if you want another community.

[tarandus]

I log on once a month, and I probably will until everyone leaves. Wouldn't hurt to revive it timmyboy, good luck 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[Baise-moi]

1) How regularly do you log on here?

I try to check every day, but lately there just hasn't been enough of interest (even simple threads, OOC or not) for me to do so. I still log on often, though. If there were more for me to be involved in, perhaps I'd do it much more.

2) How long do you think you will remain here for?

Until I'm bored with it. Nothing happening. All that good stuff. If the frequency of posts drops significantly, I suppose that's when I'll take my leave (and then log on only every once in a while...like ~once per month).

3) Do you want to revive the community?

Yeah, sure. Why not? It'd be nice to have another place to go when I want to entertain myself. Besides, I'm familiar with most of the people here. Even if it's relatively small, it's nice to see the same people.

[Craxian]

1: Once or twice a week.
2: I dunno. I left before, but not really, since I came back a few months later
3: Sure
4: idk
