I think needs a bit more drive from owner to encourage new users. Does seem to got a bit flat here. It's a nice community just needs a bit more going on

Agreed. I have Ideas. I just have no cash right now (looks at over £1500 of outstanding invoices all of which should technically be paid within the next hour and 23 minutes).

The engagement in the forums isn't what it was over Covid, and okay, I hope that means people are out there and doing stuff. But that did seem to galvanise lots of ideas and positive (financial and work/life) changes.

I'm trying my best to moderate and deal with reports where I can, there's a few things potentially coming really to halt the spam that keeps coming from users, and sometimes it's long time users making multiple posts for referrals across the forum (and in the referral place itself) and it' really is ruining parts of the forum site to be honest for anyone new coming to join.

Hopefully some changes coming will prevent that, organize things a little more and make some sections better for others in that regard. Realize that's just one aspect

I hope you aren’t just trying to do everything yourself?

I've been around since Jon's time, and things have been pretty chill. Not sure about sticking around if there's a new owner though.
