Although I am sure, new members are continuously being recruited, the numbers are on the slide. This is unfortunate in any case. If anything it should be a wake up call to all those who really give a hoot. This was going on even before I came on this boat. In other words the boat was already rocking before I came on board.

I don't think there has been any slide in active members - I've seen a steady increase since the forum took a big hit the day it went paid subscription. Stats were down a little for the Northern Hemisphere summer. If you are making that judgment from this stat, "Most users ever online was 489, 09-15-2009 at 01:34 PM" just realize that was a high point and no where near the current average. When new members jump in a big way, they do rock the boat, and then some rearranging and adjusting takes place.
I'm not concerned - there are ups. There are downs. That's what life is - its a wave! Flat line is death.
