I agree, there are probably several factors, but yes, Facebook and Instagram have decimated most forums EXCEPT the ones that help people deal directly with their life issues, like stuff about their car or house. Those forums have lost people, but not nearly as many as forums about authors, books, or places to vacation, etc. That seems backwards to me. On these forums you don't have to sift through a bunch of crap to find the good stuff.

Facebook has absolutely killed forums like ours.
People just dont care about a structured forum, most folks just want to post something, anything and move on.
If people would just give forums a chance they would see that being structured to various things actually creates more interest, even with Tapatalk helping folks just want the mass provider of Facebook

I'll second the big round of applause for Gis.

I agree with your points, Fours. Probably no single big reason, rather several smaller ones.

I agree that the Reacher books aren't quite as good as they were but that's only one a year. When there were many more people on here then lots more books/authors were mentioned and I still read some authors who were recommended on here (or the previous forum) a lot of years ago.

Do the former members discuss books on FaceBook or whatever with other book readers? I have no idea because I don't do FaceBook or any of the other stuff

I truly enjoy talking & keeping up with y'all. ALL, everyone that was on here. - .... ... deleted -
I'm guessing it was the movies? the last several books that weren't as good? FB, other social media????? Anyone else have an idea? Once again I appreciate GIS and all he does!
