I see a lot of people posting in the food forum, not everybody is going to post on every topic this is a recipe site not a chat room!

Thanks for replying everyone!
I know this is a recipe site first and foremost but I also look at it as a community, it once felt that way. The forums used to be more active, there is something there for everyone. Like I said now it seems that only a handful of folks are posting any more. I was just wondering why.
Carol Kudos on a great site!

Thanks Lee!
I can't answer your question, I do know that the site traffic amount is way up and the form topics read stats is strong, I am guessing that people are in more of a rush now and don't have the time to post. As mentioned in previous posts only a small amount of members post on forums and that pretty much is on all recipe sites. Our site is going strong in a lot of areas, plus we have a caring respectful community with thousands of wonderful members, with more joining every day. I could not ask for anything better!

Enjoy and have, fun that's why we are here! :D

I agree the posts have slowed a bit but if you look at the views they are still pretty good. Some people just like to read to see what is going on. I think the What's on your plate/was on your plate forum, the games forum and food photo forum are still quite active. Not as active as they used to be but people are busy I guess. I myself have slowed down also, just very busy with life on my end. But I still pop in daily and check things out. I am more active in the summer time when I take a lot of time off. :mrgreen:

I notice in the photo forum that there may be 18 posts but there are 64 views and most are double or triple the actual posts.

I've just got busy too. I still look daily; and, just because I haven't taken pics ... I still look and post.

I still do the daily dinner; but, I don't do much else right now. Just LIFE getting in the way is all. Which I am sure is most of us.

I read the forums I'm not a poster though I should be more active here because I really enjoy this site, I love the food forum and I read the what's on your menu, I'm here almost everyday in the evening mostly. I'm happy that the forums will be staying :)

I love reading daily quotes and also the daily what's on your menu - I'm not one for going into the forums daily although I admit I have in the past I will only post if the topic interests me. Have a wonderful weekend everyone.
