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?

Yeah they have gotten boring ... Not many forum regulars as there used to be.

@Vinster

Thus, you should get to making more threads...

@Holden012

If you are bored, you wouldn't be here really.

@Keonyama

I don't think this place is cliched. I think crazy places swarming with trolls, flame wars, excessive profanity and spam are cliched.

I'd make more threads, but I'm one of the worst thread makers in the history of thread making. Every one of my threads either dies in the first few hours or gets locked for some reason. Usually I'm the one forced to keep them alive, but they just die out after I'm continously the last person to post in them. I try to avoid double posting in them whenever possible, so I don't look like some double poster. I usually just avoid making threads altogether at this point.

I avoid making threads because I have few ideas for thread making.

Whenever I do, I make safe threads. Which explains why I've only made five or six threads since I've been here on AG.

I also tend to not make threads because I'm not a very creative person, and I never know what to make a thread about. Every once in a while, something will pop into my head, but that in itself is pretty rare.

I made threads about some flash games that were coming out. The only good thread I made was about Chaos Faction 2.. I believe it had a few dozen pages of posts.

I made a thread for BTD4, and that got about 25 pages. That and my Obama survival thread were probably my only two successful threads that didn't become forum games.

@Haku

Unless you play exclusives, people from AG already do that on Kongregate.

@Ernie

That's nice.

As for forum games, that section isn't too much fun these days for me.

Who knows what has become of "Rate the Flash Game Above You", which had about 2000 posts last time I checked. Last I heard, it was dead, but who knows at this point...

I saw it some time ago. I don't know where it is now.

What do you think about those who often say that this place is dying?

Here it is! Doesn't look like it's been touched in a couple weeks, and unfortunately, I've never played the last game mentioned, so I can't give it a fair rating.

Obrigado.

Unfortunately, that thread isn't very appealing to most users, so it just redies soon after its revival.

All because of my lack of the threadmaking skill.
