I've been around for a bit, and I've seen dead forums....Is the Ebay forum dying?....

People must be going somewhere else.

[rabites-n-chocobos]

This place is dying.

So, chat support is complete trash..... Your forum is going broke. How do you expect to relate to your product?

Chat is closed at this time of night, if you have an issue you can outline it here and we may be able to offer assistance.

It's a holiday weekend.  Lots of regular posters still in turkey-induced stupors.

What is your urgent issue?

[downunder-61]

Anything to do with your last post - you have answers there

Ten responses to that post- mostly making the same points- and the OP disagrees over some 20 posts.

@downunder-61 

Yeah, of three responses to this post, one is from Canada and one is from Australia.

There's a lot of tryptophan in turkey to say nothing of all the other traditions -- including sweet potatoes and marshmallows.

If a man tells you who he is-- believe him-- Maya Angelou.

Forums are inanimate, so sure I guess you could say they're dead since they weren't alive to begin with.

Well, if it's "dying" it's only because many people come here just to complain and nothing else.

It's actually a very active and thriving community.

Casual members with little activity, low feedback and few posts... might not be the best judges of when something's "dead".

And yet here you are. Still here

[forward-motion]

I don’t get on as much as I used to, and I don’t comment as much when I do because it’s the same issues over and over and it seems to me the posters don’t want things fixed they just want to complain about what is wrong. A whole team will offer advice and solutions but they will argue ever single one of them.  People are still here, just selective when posting.

Black Friday and turkey are to blame for everything.

Canada has Thanksgiving in October, when the crops come in.

If we had a "discovery of Canada " festival, it would be based on Champlain's voyage of 1603.

I'm really old school, and I love old school forums/message boards. They allow a sense of community, without extremest values being pressed.

I want to know how to sell **bleep**...thats all.
