Some forums are doing better than others right now, but honestly, traffic has slowed down these days for most forums, or at least from what the their traffic use to be like. As Jeremy tells us, we’re basically surviving on word of mouth and old members. Sure, there is the Sputnik review site, but I doubt that generate many members. Maybe. We’re also hoping that the company that bought Mxtabs will link these forums to their new site, which opening soon. (http://www.mxtabs.net) Whether they decide to link or not is still up in the air though. As far I know.

I think the reason the punk forum is so slow is because no one listens to Oi! or street punk anymore.

Hey, just because you shoved all those records under your bed doesn't mean there aren't other bands to talk about. You cutie pants you!

All of the new "punk" bands fall under Hardcore/Emo most of the time so that where the discussion goes. All of the old users here don't like the old punk bands anymore or are sick of talking about them (rightfully so) and we don't get any new users who want to because of mxtabs being down. The only solution is more traffic from the new site.

Even though these boards are slow, I still check them at least 6 times a day.

This place would be a lot better if certain mods weren't such nazis and didn't take their job so seirously.

I also want my image tags back go damnit!!

haha, yea. the only band that ever really gets talked about is AM!
another possible reason is the extreme thrashing that new people get when they start a new thread and then they don't wanna come back.

I love Dropdead and Disrupt, but I don't think they are very punk. Maybe a little, but they seem more grind/PV.

Dfelon seems to come out of nowhere when the forums pick up or when Niko starts to post again and drops the hammer.

The punk forums will die when I officially leave. Seriously now, street punk isn't "gay as f'uck." I still like some old Virus and Casualties stuff. It's just there isn't much depth to that kind of music, and not much to talk about. In the past, we've practically covered all there is to cover with street punk.

You like some Virus and Casualties stuff?? The most elitist and critical user in the punk forum?

Virus are alright but the Casualties wish they could reinvent hardcore punk. They need to give it a rest.

That would mean all of punkcore is a joke also. Makes sense. Or it could be an elaborate joke once they realized how pathetic they were.

Whether or not The Casualties are a joke, I've been laughing about them since I've heard them.

Still saw them in concert when they came here.

It was a fun show, but I don't see how anyone could take the band seriously.

Honestly though, I had a good time at their show.

If this is true, that's the coolest thing I've ever heard. The Casualties are ****ing retarded. Who could possibly take them seriously?

That's a rhetorical question. I don't like people that take them seriously.
