Great discussion, folks, and what Admin observed as well as most of the rest of you is what I've seen in my own forum (which happens to be 16 today!). Traffic on discussion forums is down all over because so many other folks are using other forms of social media. Having grown up with bulletin boards since the 80's, I prefer this format. As an iPhone user, I do NOT want to do my internet via that device. I can, I just don't like it.
I see my registration date on rv.net was 3/2/01 so I've been here a long time. I sometimes disagreed with Rodger's moderation but as an admin of a large. active site, understood them.
As to this topic drifting, it hasn't really, it's been a discussion of our forum's traffic on rv.net and the variety of reasons it's less busy than it was in the mid-2000's. I was just 50 when I joined here and am 64 now. Through my early 50's, I was a truck camper guy, then a couple 5th wheels (for a growing family), and then a B for, mostly me. I'm looking into getting rid of the 5th wheel for a smaller towable I can pull with the PW Traverse for those times wife and/or kids want to join me.
Like Davydd and most B owners, I suspect, I'm a wanderer rarely staying in one place more than one night. The reason I'll likely get a more self-contained rig is so I can wander longer than my self-imposed limits on using the Traverse (a week at a time or so). Those Advenced B's look awfully good but I think I want to stay with a gasser in spite of all the other benefits of diesel (like a no-propane system).
In any event, I'll be around here for awhile as we're heading into another transitioning phase in our RVing lives.
BTW, I wish I'd said "slow" and not "dead"!
