New Topics?

[aflyingmonkey]

I've been noticing that very thing for the past two months or so...  I never have started a thread in all the years I have been on FC, so I really can't complain about there not being enough, I am part of the lack of thread/subject problem, I guess.   Thanks to all those who do post, I appreciate you

I agree, there very little to post about unless you're like me and follow the news, day in history and "National Blank_____Day!  (This is s wild card topic for me and I use it a lot!)  Also the recalls interest me, because I find I've bought the product at one time or another without a second thought.  So now I think twice about buying these products at least.

I think that it is a combination of all of the above. There seem to be fewer new topics and fewer topics that I wish to respond to. Some topics seem geared towards provoking the ire of viewers and I usually avoid those or try to determine how off balance the arguments are. Even the most innocent and obscure posts seem to turn into a religious or political battle. Sometimes I respond to these anger mongering messages by talking about how beautiful the weather is or some equally innocuous line of chatter. Rarely does it change the course of heat but I can feel good that I did not contribute. Some times I will interject with facts gathered from reputable sources which is somewhat rare in this day and age where people seem intent on throwing out conjecture and perceived subjective opinion. Thanks for the neutral topic!

Cloudy with chance of rain today.

Yeah. Kind of a bummer.

I have never thought about it.  Not interested in knowing.  So much has changed since I registered in FC and not all good.

I've definitely noticed this! I'm glad it's not just me. I feel like there used to be a lot more topics when I first started FC. Maybe a lot of people left FC or the forum? Hopefully it'll get better again.

Some months I seem to be able to think of topics and start a new thread and others I just seem to draw a blank.  This is especially so when I've now been on Fusion more than 4 years, I believe.  Actually, some months it is all I can do to respond.  I guess I shouldn't complain much as I always seem to get my 30 posts completed by about the 10th of every month.  However, sometimes it is difficult to be motivated!
