I'm not saying they suck. It's just went down-fold. And it's not about the spam/trolls/flamers either. There haven't been a lot of interesting threads around. All I see are, quote threads, love situation threads, break-ups, relationships, and school stuff. It's nice to give advice for a person who just broke up but really? Can you just look into the other thread about break-ups and use the advice there rather than making a whole thread about it again? Well, your story can be different. But look into the other thread and see! I know some of you can be lazy...though

And also in my opinion The last year forums were better, it had more unique and interesting threads.

So, what is your opinion about this?

I really wish that I was here last year in the summer, I heard that it was more interesting, less spammers, and more active users.
There haven't been many interesting thread, but it's not because of the users, it's because of the users, and civilization. We aren't intersting anymore.
My opinion on this is that yes the forums are boring at times, nobody makes any good threads, thus the boringness begins. So I apologize, on the behalf of boring people, for everything I guess.

In my opinion, this is the only thread that has interested me enough to post, in about a week.

Well, I can say that quite a few of us are restless because AG's forums are rather quiet.

I believe it's a fluctuating thing.

or maybe many of the good questions have been either shot down, answered, or just died...

idk, there just isn't much that hasn't already been asked

Yup. I wish the art contest was back up. It's been boring since it got locked.

Well we could always go for Forums Erotica, but that would be inappropriate for boys and girls

Hmm...I haven't made some threads in a while. Perhaps I'll think of something while I listen to Coast to Coast Radio.

Somers, there is a beyond. Though it really stretches the definition of what is allowed here and not.

I still enjoy these forums. Tavern is always having at least one thing interesting.

We had a thread discussing all sort of paraphilias once. It got locked because the only ones daring to post were mods and a guy who trolled elsewhere.

More on topic, yes, yes they do. It's not a "they have generally gotten more boring" thing, just some days it is like nothing happens.

Still, though, if you don't like the current threads, come up with better ones.

I forgot about the paraphilias.

Yes, I agree. Just quiet, not boring.

Eh, like I said before activity goes up and down. That is life. As long as these forums don't die suddenly.

At least once a year I read a thread like this.

I can't be bothered to dig up my response to the previous posts.

But the gist of it was this: a forum is a community. A community is made of people. A forum is only as interesting as its people. Being bored by a forum is an admission of passivity, and therefore of your own lack of input. But the internet's a lot more versatile than the idiot box you call a TV!

Actually, better idea. If you're bored and on AG... do something else :O

With new members comes new creativity in threads.

Wait till winter break and it'll start up again.

Err...sorry, I kind of meant the threads are like all the same, well almost all the same. And it makes it a bit boring.

Actually, it's not that boring. It's just the threads I mentioned earlier. :O
