The northern winter is traditionally a slow time for Sciforums; our big southern drive comes from Australia, which just isn't enough to sustain the numbers when Americans, Canadians, Europeans, and advocates of Russia awaken to our season of darkness.

I know Australia's been mentioned in this thread, but is there some other reason why the graph's Y axis is inverted?

EDIT: Ah. Because it's a ranking.

Well, maybe its popularity didn't shrink, maybe a bunch of site got more popular, whereas SciFo did not increase proportionately.
 
The country-of-origin stats there for site visitors is interesting. The representation from India is almost entirely spammers, which also explains why the average page views is a little over 1.
 
I think there's a general trend away from discussion forums. Instead, many people choose to spend their time on social media (TwitFace and the like. Oh wait, it's InstaBook, isn't it? No wait...).

discussion goes down during facist dictatorships and war.

I was about to say something similar. Plenty of thriving discussion forums out there. However set yourselves up as a faceache/twatter competitor (or simply rely on 15 year old internet trends) and you will land predictable results.

I spent so much time on Facebook and MySpace trying to get my friends to join it got confusing. I was always asking them to come on MyFace, and no one responded.
*baZING*
 
Interesting.

It seems like sci-forums ranks 322,560 in its ''global internet engagement'' rank. :oops:

When I first joined, it was pretty busy, here. I think forums are kind of ''dying'' in general...to other forms of social media. I was happy to see that some of the regulars that I remember, are still here, when I returned recently.
