Are RV forums dying?
Seems to me we get less and less participation in this forum each year:

Google trends does NOT reflect actual traffic to websites. It reflects search engine searches!!!!
If we really want to know how traffic has trended, we'd have to hear from the webmasters at RV.net. I'd love to know what they are seing.
I also agree with many of the posters who have said the forum software is getting long in the tooth. I'd love to see better searching, ability to like posts, ability to upvote and downvote posts, iOS or Android app integration, better highlighting of new posts, etc.
It seems to me that forum software has improved dramatically in the past 5-10 years yet I've never seen any upgrades to this forum's software.
