As you can guess from the title, this is yet another attempt at solving the AG activity problem. This problem has been ever present since late 2010. Many reasons as to the cause have been presented, ranging from a much delayed release of AG3, to lacking of a community manager, or the end of the flash gaming era.
I do have a couple of ideas concerning activity and how to increase it. Whether these are the keys to solving the issues at hand or not is unbeknownst to me, but I most certainly feel it is definitely worth the effort.
I'm not going into details - yet. Firstly, I'm going to need a few volunteers. More the better, but not more then 20 (20, yeah right...) Don't volunteer then become inactive that would not be beneficial to anything.
Frankly I've just grown out of AG. I have a real life to live, almost all my friends went inactive and the only reason I came on was to fight in the Armatar War- Clan Friendly Version, but that died and so I went inactive. I tried to come back, but my only goals were to gain AP and they got rid of that.
i want to be more active in the forums but other internet sites and activities are eating my time...like playing games, reading books, watching shows/movies on the internet and learning (training school).
I would say you have grown away from, but not grown out of. Take Ernie, for example. He's 31.

You mean we are living in a dream on AG? Jk, but it's not like AG is keeping you from doing anything.

Like R2 said, make a new goal to gain Quests. Get to know other people. Most of my AG friends all went active, so I made new ones. You can get just as much out of this community as you could out of the old.

Can't you squeeze AG in there somewhere? (please?)
learning
You can learn quite a bit from AG. Take me for example, I've become a success due to AG.
but it's not like AG is keeping you from doing anything.
No, its just another way to spend my time. No offense to anyone but this gets me no where in real life... it just gets me popularity on this site... which is a great site and I'm not trying to put it down but no one will care if I try to get a job by saying "I accomplished 100 quests on a gaming website"

Thats what I meant
Poor example..saying as we haven't seen him for quite some time
It really was. Nice try though
Just a quick update! "Community" should be switching to "Forums" within the next few days.
That will help with other people, but I like the name community
