"972 posts were made here yesterday, by 321 different users." If you look at the upper right hand-corner of the general forum page, you will see that sentence.

Thanks to the almighty calculator thingy, we can see that every user who posted on the BBS yesterday posted an average of...
three posts!

Oh, how I remember vividly the days when people complained that the BBS was dead when there were still 5,000+ posts being made a day.

You know it's interesting. I've witnessed the death of four different online communities, and this one has been the absolute slowest decline. It was also the largest back in the day.

I probably won't miss it when it's gone. I will wonder where all the people have run off to, though.

oh, and FYI, one of the common signs that a community is dying is that the community leaders/moderators refuse to accept that it's happening, ban people who try to talk about it publicly, try to fix the problems that were brought up a long time before.. but all too late, and the community puts a lot more emphasis on seniority. Just some stuff to look forward to when you notice this is happening to a community you're a part of.

Youtube?

Youtube is not suitable for NG users at all. It is either too immature or too sophisticated sometimes and for christ's sake, it lacks porn.

I will. Newgrounds is my favorite site. I don't know where I'll go when/if it dies.

Newgrounds has been around for more than 15 years, don't worry, it won't die in 2013.

I know. But I plan on sticking around on here (even if i just lurk) til it does eventually die.
Whether that be in 15 years like you said or longer or shorter.

No, of course not. At this rate wouldn't it die sometime around 2017-2018?

I imagine when Newgrounds dies, we'll all be standing in an airport with our bags. On one side is us, the users, and on the other the admins. Tom simply nods and we all start walking our separate ways, waving goodbye as we walk away.
