Loads of great stuff from the seventies has been covered by artists more recently. It was a great decade :love:

What's everyone up to for Easter Monday?

70's and 80's were both the best decades (for me anyway).

Doing what I shouldn't be doing and not doing what I should be!

Unfortunately, that isn't as exciting as it could sound. :joker:

The housework's all done and dusted *boom boom* :hugesmile:

Still on holiday mode and wanted to brush the cobwebs away before tomorrow but have decided to get all militant on myself !:shocked:

I have however done 3 washings (went down to the local river, with my block of soap and battered hell out of the clothes on a rock) - none of this modern gagetry for me. (aye....right!)

You posted this on a bank holiday Monday at 9:48 AM, did you expect the place to be a hive of activity?

Bank Holiday :shrug:

Samuel. 09-04-2012 11:23 AM

I don't know why you'd expect it to be any more active considering the time and day.

Hardly. It's been a fairly active off season. Maybe not compared to previous off seasons, but it's doing just fine.

I have to agree with Patrick - overall, it's become quieter and quieter as every month passes, with (it seems) less and less individual posters posting. It seems to be just the same people on line most of the time with a lot having drifted away.

Samuel. 09-04-2012 12:13 PM

It's only natural for there to be less posters the further away from the previous Big Brother we get, until the next one comes around. And it's been far from dead, plenty of things have been going on. I honestly don't think there's been a huge difference between the amount of posters at the start of this off season to now. All the regulars are still, well, regulars.

MTVN 09-04-2012 12:14 PM

I don't think it's that bad, I still manage to waste far too much time on here anyway

Really? You think it's been far from dead? It's seems to be less of a forum now, but more of a large chatroom & game site most of the time.

How are you able to compare over the years by way of comparison - I'll jump to the conclusion (which I shouldn't do, and I apologise for doing the very thing that I don't really approve of doing), that you lurked before joining last year, to be able to compare to past years?

Often longer term posters reflect back on years before I joined and I'm not in a position to offer comment as I wasn't around then so I'm a wee bitty confused how you can make any comparison really? :conf:

I've seen a huge range of posters (whether I agreed with them or not, whether I liked them or not), not posting half as much - but ones that really kicked life into the place - posters who rarely post now: Zippy / Stu / InOne / Visage / Angus58 to name just a few names off the top of my head - that were very regular and whose names you rarely see crop up anymore.

I didn't make any comparison.

Out of Zippy, Stu, InOne, Visage and Angus58, Stu was the only person I'd consider a regular poster during off season in the time I've been here.

I've been on long lasting healthy forums far more dead than this. There have been like 20 odd different threads posted in in the last hour in the middle of a Monday. TiBB's doing fine. It'll be booming again when Big Brother comes back around.

I'm stuck in traffic... That ought to get the ball rolling...

if you didn't make a comparison then my apologies. My point remains intact though for the reasons that I gave earlier - that for example: the people I happened to mention did in fact post (outwith BB) far more a long time ago - but rarely do so now.

For a dead forum it sure runs very slowly at times. Makes me want to punch someone when it takes 10 minutes to load a thread.

Me. I Am Salman 14-04-2012 02:11 PM

Yay someone bumped my thread xD

Me. I Am Salman 06-04-2014 07:56 PM
