Is GameTavern dead?

[Bond]

See above.

[DeathsHand]

No.

[The Germanator]

It can't be, right?

Haven't posted in a while, but I still check on this 'ole place.

[BreakABone]

The ole girl has seen better days that's for sure.

There's just no energy to post anymore it seems, and everyone is busy growing up.

[Teuthida]

It can't die. It's how I track my media consumption. Speaking of which...time to drop a tv deuce (http://www.gametavern.net/forums/showpost.php?p=283691&postcount=39).

It seems more people check the forums and not post. I know I am guilty of such things.

[Professor S]

It's a nasty circle. I don't post as much anymore, but when I do try and post it rarely results in a conversation, so I think "what's the point?"

[Angrist]

No.Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooowe. :eek:

No way man! How are you DeathsHand? :D I was scrolling through some years old threads this week and I was really wondering how you were doing. I even considered looking you up on Facebook, but I only had a nick. :)

[Ginkasa]

Obviously not, or I could not have voted in that poll.

[BreakABone]

I say we all try to post at least once a day if you visit every day.

Won't be much activity.. but more than it is now.

[Typhoid]

3 people like to poop on parties.


I do exactly what everyone else does. I just check up.
This place usually does die down in the summer though, understandably.

Ya, I usually just pop in and check, say something every now and then. But I mainly just check for Teuthys awesome posts. I still keep searching back to that nerd rap song you posted in musical youtubes a year ago. :p I think Teuth should be given mod privileges, if not site re-live-ification privileges. I know I could spam some peeps to join in on here from EVE, but this isnt really the MMO type forum. I say add some corn here and there. Everybody likes corn!

I mean no reason, it couldn't be an MMO forum.

You folks could use gaming side to discuss the game, meet-ups and all that other stuff that comes with EVE... I have no idea

I think the key problem (as others have mentioned) is that we aren't conversing with each other anymore ... it's more so talking at each other. Perhaps we need to find new things to talk about?

[Teuthida]

It's like twenty people all married to each other. We ran out of things to talk about. We should just all have sex already. Orgy time!

[BlueFire]

It's still alive.. right?

[BreakABone]

I don't think we ran out of things to talk about

I think we're too familiar with each other and to save time and trouble don't engage in certain discussions anymore.

It's like getting in the same fight for 5 years.. year 6 you just say.. meh

[gekko]

I have learned over the years that gaming forums are about fighting. The more rational the members try to be, the less activity it has.

Shut up, no it doesnt!

....Year 17 you get out of Prison.

You use that pickup line, too?!


I'll try to start this reviving conversation shit out. HO' DAWN.

[BreakABone]

So was thinking, and what if we tried for a social media push?

Like create a Twitter or Tumblr account or whatever. Post links to new threads, talk to people, follow news groups that would interest the forum.

Would share it with various members so that the following would be well-rounded, and try and recruit people to post on the boards.

[Jonbo298]

I come back it seems like once a year on average. That counts, right? :grr:

I remember the good times but so many things going on that I forget about the site unfortunately.

[Angrist]

Apparantly we need more "Is GT dead?" threads.

[BreakABone]

I do find it funny, one of our more active threads.. and a lot of old faces returning.

Kind of like a retirement tour.

[DeathsHand]

I happened to be bored and decided to check out of this place was still here.
Literally moments after I waltzed in, this thread was posted.
... Timing?

You use that pickup line, too?!

I reckon you guys'd have more luck with "Get your coat."

That is actually a great idea...

[Fox 6]

GT should clearly have Instagram and pinterest.

[Jason1]

Wow, some REALLY old people posting in this thread.

[GameMaster]

Wow, some REALLY old people posting in this thread.

That's for sure!

[Acebot44]

That's for sure!

....


O_o

[Jason1]

Ha!!!!

[Fox 6]

It's the return of the messiah! THE END OF DAYS!!!!

[Angrist]

Heya GM, how's life?

And can you finally admit that you're behind all the crazy spam bots? :D

[Neo]

I hope GameTavern is dead, because then it can turn into a zombie, and zombies are cool!

[The Germanator]

That's for sure!

YES!

[ZebraRampage]

How many of you still play a lot of games? I have really cut back on them now that I have a career and other priorities, and isn't gaming the main focus of this place? We're all growing up and getting busy with other things, so I'm not surprised that it has really died down. If gaming has been cut out of our lives a bit, then no wonder there's not as much to talk about. I also agree that we know each other too well, so there's less to debate about anymore.

[Angrist]

Hm good point. These days I'm happy if I find time to play a game for 1 hour a day.
