Hey all,
Just wondering if it is possible to bring back a forum that's been around for a month, has about 8 active users out of 25...is it failing?
Thanks.
Joe

You don't make a community like the Pixel2life one happen in a month.
It takes an active and interesting front website to get an active community formed with random surfers.
I guess your current users are mostly people you already knew? friends, family, etc.
Give it some time and ask your self, what makes it worth to become a member of your community...
Anyway to answer you question, no it's not failing a forum with 8 active members isn't exactly what you can call a community yet, imo.
Good luck!

It's always possible to bring back a dieing community. People just want some insentives and new content.
