We have a long way to go.

1. General Discussion 344,934
2. Pearl Jam Chat (includes Live, Tour, Trading) 243,762
3. Arts & Entertainment (includes Star Wars) 167,771
4. Other Bands (includes tournaments) 138,155
5. Sports 93,395
6. News & Debate 46,881
7. Food & Dining 36,390
8. Release 4,848
9. Announcements 584

These post counts by forum are based on stats from the beginning of the board up until today. I think we can do better than this, everyone. While I suspect the Sports forum and N&D are beating F&D on the strength of the Trump thread, the Guns thread and Boston area sports threads, we'd likely still come up short here outside of any of that. We simply need to post more in here, plain and simple. Any and all ideas are welcome. Do we need new threads? New posters? More controversial content and lively debate? Please PM eh ruddock with your suggestions.

Just for perspective, we have more topics here than either of the other two threads directly above us. Paradoxically, I think this is actually a bad thing. If we merge a few of these threads and tweak some thread titles, we might just have our own Boston Red Sox Thread after all.

News and Debate: 215
Sports: 182
Food & Dining: 221

Maybe a more general topic where people can talk about all sort of stuff, with pizza in the headline. Everyone loves pizza.

I like where your head's at, but there's got to be some power posters driving content in a thread like that. It's pizza. Not most controversy or new developments, you know?

Food & Dining has been an absolute disaster.

We need new recruits, too. And the return of some key posters.
