@Vitiman This is a really good response and you made a lot of good points. Especially about MFGG's history - it does matter and will indeed shape the lifespan of a forum's activity.

But as far as forums not being as alive as they used to be -- when I said Bell Tree Forums had 63 online, I meant 63 registered usernames. Total including guests, there are currently 193 people online. That seems somewhat similar to a typical day in MFGG's golden days, if I remember well enough.

My point when I say forums aren't dying, is more in response to how people usually talk about MFGG's inactivity. I hear a lot of people on here just says things like "well Discord has replaced forums, forums are a thing of the past" but clearly that's not true when you look at Super Mario Boards or SMW Central. MFGG seems a bit unique in how dead it is, considering people are still making fangames, and MFGG forums were one of the notably bustling forums of the nostalgic internet.

Like, saying "MSN Messenger is dead" would be an accurate statement, but saying "forums are dead" isn't really true. Forums still are used by a lot of people. Not as popular as they used to be, but not dead.

Hmm, as for whether or not Bell Tree Forums is active due to things like item trades, I checked on Bell Tree Forums - their version of General Chat doesn't have a lot of new posts, it seems pretty equal to MFGG's GC. So yeah, less active than I thought. However, the non-Animal Crossing gaming discussion forum on there is very active with conversation, multiple threads with new posts from today.

One thing I know for certain is there are a fair few MFGGers who are invested in the forums, and want to see them come back to life. It may continue to decline or it may rise in activity if people like us keep talking about fangames and contribute. Though I do understand the days of old are lonnngg behind us and we'll likely won't see the kind of activity Bell Tree or even SMW Central have again on here.
