Do you feel Armor Games, has a lack of active posters on certain forums? If you do, I'm glad you are, cause it's very true.

The old regulars coming back or the newbies reading the rules and not breaking them.


SOME do that... but the amount of newbies not spaming isn't keeping up with the actives quitting

freakenstein i see what your saying, but a group of actives cant make a more active forum.


If you build it, they will come.

Hang on...let me think here....Now this may be ideological, but we could essentially meet any newcomer that came by and show them how fun the forums are and how great it is to be a part of it. But that's just me. But a couple people can't do it alone, we need a helluva lot of people to do it.

So if you want an active AG, do suggestion 1, and do suggestion 2.

What do you mean the lack?? there are so many of us posting now. Armorgames now got noobs to reach 1000 posts at the rank of squire. What the hell I just reached.. Anyway a lot of users.. like me.. Go to games more.
Actually I also love the forums but games are more, uh exiting. For example, ones like raze and the last stand are very great.

Why do all the regulars complain about lack of active posting?

Every time I come online after being off-line for a while there are so many new topics and replies on older threads to read :S
I really don't see the problem...

Just because it isn't 'the same' as it used to be.. nothing stays the same forever, adapt

Not all of us, just a certain number of vocal people.

I am already tired of all the "AG is dying" talk.

Whoever thinks that fails...It's not dying. There are still plenty of regulars. Which makes AG alive. If people are still posting, it means it's still alive. Pretty much...

AG is even more alive than my sucked up dusty old forum,
It's true, but i'm impressed of seeing so many posters now.

AG has a good amount of active users. Some people just realize they have better things to do. Others don't. School is starting in a few weeks for me so most likely I'm not going to be active on the AG forums. Does that mean people with start to hate me? No. But people should respect that other people have lives (I'm not saying that you guys don't) and want to do stuff.

The AG forum is a great place to learn and debate about some topics and people can choose if they want to be active or not.

Perhaps if people make more approachable topics, rather than the WEPR topics that involve more than just a bit of knowledge about the subject in order to debate about it, the forums would have more active posters.

I'll leave this up to people who can actually create topics, rather than people like me who will never be able to create a reasonably good topic outside of the Forum Games.

Well no, not really, I don't know much about religion or history, but I can throw my opinion in anyway on the topic, and reply to what I have some knowledge of..
Also read what everyone else has to say, especially people like 314, Mage and MRWalker, the links they post are really interesting too, good way to learn about things if you ask me.

The WEPR, well you do need to know what you are talking about. It's not all that hard to make a decent post/thread. But the WEPR can be rough with the arguments. But it's still fine.

Well, I can make a decent thread to actually have a decent conversation about something. But I just choose not to make one...I can't say I make a "great thread" though.
