Is this forum dying on its' feet?

Bring back Warren and then this forum would buzz for better or for worse, funny enough i seldom agreed with any of his post and of course he cannot return but maybe this forum has become just a little bit to PC since Warrens demise !wink!

Yep it is, just like the porn business !

The porn business is not dead yet .

Many, if not most, of the 'senior' posters have either been shown the door, or have left of their own free will. Also you have to factor in that two different forums have been set up of which many (disgruntled) posters have joined.

You said:

"If memory serves me correctly, a couple years back, this forum would get 100+ hits per day......
now it seems as though it's lucky to get into double figures......."

Yes you are correct, I first heard of BGAFD when I was living in France in 2005-2006 and a post would last about 2 hours on the front page before being driven off by the mountain of new posts. Now a post will gather dust on the front page for days, until slowly collapsing onto page 2.

It's only one of the many symptoms of the "Death by a Thousand Cuts" that both paid for porn and other media is suffering from.

A good example of this demise is the following story told by a friend in the porn biz.

He was saying a few months ago he was clearing out his collection of porn DVD's about 40 in total. He phoned his mate who was a mechanic or something and offered them to him for free. His mate said he was far too busy and would pick them up in a few weeks time. To my knowledge he never showed.

Ten years ago, he would have, if necessary, crawled to my friends house like a man, dying of thirst, to get his hands on 40 free Porn DVD's...........

This is the problem, people are bored by the imagery and those that are not look for it for free.

When I prophesised this some years ago this forum roared with laughter, in Roman times I would have been stoned to death, for being a,"Bringer of bad tidings". Now, I think the evidence speaks for itself.

The good news is that some will survive, but sadly many will not.

Just in case, I am considering dusting off my old toilet brush in case I need to go back to my old job!!wink!

I had a similar experience as your friend when I was Assistant Manger for a local football team and offered my VHS tapes Jim. Only 2 of something like 30 actually said yes to even borrowing them.

I think the problem with the forum and only this section of the forum is some of the newbies who now unfortunately use it, who for reasons known only to themselves make comment for no other reason than to cause a problem.

Life is way to short to be arsed with bollocks and when you can't be arsed you just don't use it.

Shame really because over the numerous years I've visited, even after locking horns with the occasional numpty, I've always found the place to be an enjoyable site to spend some time on.

Having said that it still is if you stick to perving / reading the Promotion and British Girls sections.!wink!
