As I look around the site I can see that pretty much all the major element from old seem to be here... I think I miss that one landing page where I a matter of a few seconds I could see more info in just one place. Here it is more structured but it takes me more clicks to see what threads have been updated .... How many users are online... the last 100 or so posts on all threads.... The scrolling shout out. Maybe some well thought out combining of more on a landing page might help. All that said I think the biggest issue for the site is lack of activity... in years past when you came on for the first time any day there would be hundreds of posts to get caught up on .... Now it appears that the majority of posts are from a very small group of members who are basically chatting with each other. Usually when I sign on I go look at how many others are online... my observations are that for the last couple of weeks that I have been back its usually less than 300 (as I write this 249) and usually there are only a handful of members. (Currently 10 pages of users but only 2 are members and less then 10 actual Verified independents. The for this to survive we need a higher number of guests converting to members. I am not sure what restrictions guests currently have but I assume they cannot post maybe we should allow them a certain number of posts before they are required to become a member. If they get drawn into conversations then there might be a higher conversion factor. We would look at this approach for all restriction they may currently have. It was great to see the twitter account but should all the twitter posts be fed into a twitter thread here on the site? We Need to find a way to increase service provider activity on the board. Perhaps we should have some kind of incentive program for them where they get rewarded for activity on the board. This could be financial or advertising money or gift cards etc. I know the immediate answer would be how would this be paid for... well people will hate that I say this but should there be a small monthly membership fee for everyone one except service providers purely to fund incentives? I would be OK with that but I am sure many would not. Just my Opinion

Good Morning.... Remember Breakfast is the most important meal of the day... what you put in your mouth in the morning will have an impact on you for the rest of the day...,,, .... Especially if you have a beard ;)

Well for me I think a lot of it is my unfamiliarity... only recently back on site so change was a big surprise.

While I would like to think that was true I don't have much confidence that they will do anything especially heading into an election on Oct 19th. The only real hope is that the liberals win and deal with it in their 1st year.

Very interesting... If I could do that I would never pay for sex 🙂
