It does make you wonder, some of them, what happened, thankfully 2 close friends then I knew what happened as they told me they were leaving the site... I think changing the name and making it harder to find this forum was partly responsible for the loss of members, but it's still nice that there is a forum for people to get some help.
I can't help wonder if it's more to do with the rise in the number of users that use social media (facebook, reddit etc)

there are always going to be people like myself who don't use such sites, so yeah... these forums will hopefully either pick up, or if not the regular posters will stick around
