Is the Site dead?

2) People are doing more reading than posting. I think almost every problem that can happen, has happened and there is a thread to read about it. Honestly, I totally despise redundant posts like "are my temps good?? they are 75 and 32 below zero? what can I do to fix them?" Stuff like that. I remember one time on the old site there were 3 active threads in a row all asking the same question.

I agree with the first thing you listed, as for #2. That's not a good sign. Redundant posts means an influx of new members. If you want the site to grow those posts are a good sign that growth is happening. New members almost always post before looking for an answer to their problems in a previous thread.

QuenteK: I think what elevatethis was trying to say is that now that the caresheets and other information is much easier to see and access, it has cut down on the number of typical "newbie" questions. Smulkin and Marla put A LOT of work into making the site as user-friendly as possible, and I hope that is a sign that it has worked.

As for myself, I haven't been around much in the last couple of weeks. Between end-of-schoolyear stuff with the kids and a boss that has returned to the office after a two-months absence, I have been SWAMPED. But I'm making a new resolution to spend at least an hour a day here. I've missed it!
