I think that with BB ended, the Forum needs to do one of two things.

1. Rebrand itself and name itself after one of the remaining Reality TV Shows, for example something like “ThisIsLoveIsland.com” where fans of that show could come on here and discuss the show with fellow fans.

2. My preferred option which is to become a general Reality TV Forum and still keep our alternative sections like our Serious Debates and Sports and I think that it would encourage new members to join if advertised well enough.

Obviously good threads are a must for any Forum to survive, the biggest thing that has killed a lot of Forums over the years is members fragmenting and going to Social Media sites and hardly any new and interesting threads being made on the Forum.

I personally think that we're not at that stage yet, but with SCD ending tomorrow and the longer we go without no major competition based Reality Show that's not about Showmances happens, I worry that this Forum would shut down which I don't want to have happen as I've loved this Forum since I was a teenager and I've known some great people on here over the years.

ThisIsRealityTVForum.com i know it might seem simple but i think this could be a good idea to bring in new members (non bb fans i mean)

Also when you're a Big Brother Forum it would be nice to see them being managed well by Endemol and the channels that they air on around the world as it would entice new people to join places like here and DS a lot more.
I forgot that I had already posted on here.

But yeah new Reality Shows that are good in quality would be good for the Forum too.

I'm concerned that the administration is very silent on the forum future

Still this

Being a bit friendlier to new members would probably be a good start, I assume.

A drag race forum would be wonderful, especially now it has been confirmed it is coming to the UK. I think if it had it's own forum it would bring in fans and make the fans already here happy. I can't honestly see a reason why it hasn't been added as of yet unless TiBB is closing so updates are deemed pointless.

As you say, it's been asked for so many times I'm beginning to wonder

had watched it quite a few times i like it a lot especially the lip sync battles some performances of that are truly amazing

what you say now it is coming to the UK we should have a subforum for this on a british forum
