There is no contention that the forum is only this or only that. The fact that meaningful and life-changing interactions ARE yet happening on gay forums is a fact, be it more or less frequent.
My observation that this forum has low attendance and sparse posting is an empirical one. Many times when I am posting, whether night or day, there will be only four or five logged-in members displayed on the homepage. For an international forum, that is a truly low number. The sparse posting speaks for itself. Threads move along at roughly the pace of Hawaiian lava. I've yet to see any thread take on an energetic back-and-forth commonly seen on other websites with forums. And yes, I do compare with other current and active forums for my impression.
Honestly, it is hard to think as slowly as the pace and graphics and software here require.
