An announcement of my concern
Posted: Thu Jul 29, 2010 1:11 am
Hello, fellow fanmail.biz members. The following is something I have been considering for a long time about this website's forum. You see, there are several flags that have made themselves clear to me over the past week. I have been moderating, administering, and monitering various websites that have forums or are forums. In my hobby, I examine trends in the forums that occur before the website crashes, loses activity, or becomes absolutely vacant. There are many aspects in the examination of a forum's status to take into consideration, too many to describe the following prediction.
I believe the fanmail.biz website will decline in activity for as long as global economic status worsens and advertisement for the website continues to lack. When a website declines, new members stop flowing into the registry and older members lose interest in the website. New members leave because of the original decline in activity, and old members leave because they become more reactionary to the lack of new members to replace the number of inactive members.
If the website does not turn around and only the occasional new member and avid collectors are left members will eventually dissolve into other websites and forums. Much too often, websites with only a small group of active members die off because the small number of active members move as a group to a new website with the same theme.
I am not saying any of this is in the near future, as a very extreme case scenario would have to occur with the number of members. Do not be alarmed, as the breaking of ice like this often worries people too much. If members start generating more topics, and replying to new topics the website should do very well, if not better than ever.
Thank you for reviewing my topic.
