Your phone? Shoot, I can't even fit this on my 64" big screen TV.

On a more serious note......  I've noticed that this place IS pretty dead too.  At least compared to years past.

I think its because of the upheaval in the outside world during these times.  Some mess is goin down.  

World events are super in motion.  Even the freakin universe around us is passing through places of alignment pretty regularly. 

People are paying attention to all of it and that means, this place and hobby have been put on a back burner....

or maybe a short box on a shelf in the basement or attic. 

There is nothing wrong with this place.  It's not the "new format".  

It's bigger than that :)

I need to get to a dispensary so I can understand your accent.

I was thinking the FS section seems pretty dead lately.  

Yeah - worst I've seen it, at least for stuff that I have any interest in.  And I'm pretty scattergun in my interests.

Is that from the trailer for the new Hairy Poppins movie?

I think it was a Hobbit casting call.

I recently returned after a long sabbatical and yeah, it seems pretty dormant.

  • Should we have an open house?
  • Membership drive? Risque entertainment?
  • Win a Dream Date with (insert Forum Member here)?
  • Perhaps we need a "companion thread" to this. "Ideas for making the threads sexy again?"

But seriously, I really think this place has way, way too many sub-forums. There seems to be forums for things that don't need their own forum. And the best way I can see to liven things up is to condense. Like a "Gold, Silver and Bronze" area instead of having a forum for each. A few forums can be eliminated altogether and that traffic would go back to Comics General. And Comics General could stand to lose some sub-forums too. From what I remember these sub-forums were created because the original forums were so clogged and busy. That isn't the case now and in the future it can always be changed. But for now we could simplify the number of forums and a side benefit would be people being exposed to material that they normally wouldn't be perusing.

I think that's a pretty good point.  Too many sub forums has people spread all across the landscape of here.  Might be a good thing to get folks together in the same room

I miss the active topics function.Check activity and it's a million posts from the same threads.Active topics made it so much easier to browse,and you'd catch more things from all over.
