Forum Stats/Save the Forum

[Kat]

Proboards just added a new stats feature so we can see what's happening with the forum at any time and looking at it made me pretty sad when I think back to how popular this forum used to be.

So I just wanted to encourage everyone who is still here, still loves the site and wants it to survive/go back to what it was, that you NEED to post. Don't worry about how silly it might seem, or even if you feel that you're spamming. It doesn't work if all we do is respond to other people's topics. We need to start new threads or we'll just continue to stall.

You probably haven't noticed, since I'm regularly deleting inactive members, but we are still having new people join the forum (up to four a week) but none of them end up staying since there's nothing to see or do once they've joined.

I'm definitely gonna stay here, no matter what
Even though I don'T have much time at the moment... 3 weeks until my final exams... last year of school

[Shelley]

I will not let you down.

[Sunshine]

I still lurk the boards occasionally but very rarely post. Maybe I'll start up again, it was always fun back in the day

[Kat]

^ It would be great to see you posting again

[Skylight;]

I've been hella busy lately but I'm gonna try my hardest to post here. This place is like my internet home

[Shelley]

^Same here : )

My holidays are just over but I will be here everyday!

[tara98gold]

sorry I haven't been on much at all lately. So busy now. I am involved in so many different things at church serving in different ministries and then also joining a team that will be launching a new church. Then also I am getting married in 4 months!!!! And planning a wedding is very time consuming. But I will see if I can get on a little more frequently to help.

I hope this forum continues to stay open and you won't have to shut it down because i love this place. This was like the first forum i ever registered to. I really miss the oldies, wish they were still around.
I'm in college now and i've been swamped with work. So i don't post much, but i do sign in to read when i can. I'll try to post here more often.

I'm sorry that I haven't been around much lately, but I've just felt that more & more people left and eventually I did too. I also miss the old times here on Portrait. I mean where did everyone go? For example Amy, psychme, Secret, Jason, Caroline, dee, Diana etc. And that's just to mention a few! I miss everyone.

I'm gonna do my best and be as active as can around here.

ah yea, it use to be amazing back then. I am trying to post a few everyday
Maybe we need to think of some new sections??

maybe like a D.I.Y. sections where peopel can show things that they have made or sort of tutorials of how they made it and stuff.

hmm i cant really think of anything else at the moment, but if i do, i will DEF post it here

[SECRET]

I have decided to get back posting here!
Its been to long!

[Shelley]

^We have one oldie back

[SECRET]

Yeah! im glad to be back!

[smashleec]

Anoter thing I just thought of was maybe having a marketplace type thing. Where people can post things that they want to sell or things they are looking to buy or even things they want to trade. Idk if that would be possible but it's just an idea

[Michelle]

*guilty look*
haha my excuse is that I've been super busy doing school stuff that I really have no life anymore. College acceptances, scholarships, clubs at school, volunteer work, blah blah..
But now since I'm on spring break for two weeks I have time for portrait again. and time to sleep and actually have a life outside of school ;D

[Bea]

Welcome back Secret & Michelle!!

[Michelle]

^ Haha thanks Bea (:

[Anny ☮]

I'll try my best to post.. every time I can
