special interest groups are empty

Went to post something [first time there] and they are all empty. Did I miss something?

Most people don't even know those groups exist. There are only a couple that get any activity.

What group are you looking at?    I just changed several groups and they are active.

Wanted the music one, also checked cars? No posts in either

OK, I first got to the page in the photo - which I should have included in the starting message - by clicking on music in the 'ebay groups' drop down list on this page, then I most likely did the same to check others - animals and motors - and they were empty too.  We still have that page open and I just refreshed it - this time got the header page with the list of groups and the post count - whoever said nobody goes/used them is right - top five groups? - 6500+ posts in art, 1500 in 'ebay friends', 63 in 'others' then it's 11 and 9.

So I'm gonna post my question on this board. And I missed the 'r' in starting so I edited

When the boards were redesigned a few years ago, some were eliminated, some were combined in odd ways, some were categorized differently, and the search for the boards was changed entirely.  Many boards are hard to find, with either logic or intuition.  Many have languished.  The few active ones often get questions that don't quite fit, as yours may not, but everyone understands why and will still do their best to help.  So, fire away with your question!   🙂

Would have posted in music but it's a wasteland. Question is going here [sellers] as we want an answer if possible and just saw someone get their 'what's this' answered in ten minutes - boss has been doing records since '68 and it's a first for him.
