...At least for me it is responsiveness. I don't know maybe it is because I am such an outsider or simply just such an oddball. Either way, I have problems getting my threads off the ground. By that, I mean my threads don't get into the discussions for which I made them. My topics must be completely missing the right readers and posters, or those readers and posters are too biased for other discussions. I personally feel that B.Net should be more responsive.

The Community is not what it was on B.old, but nothing here is anymore. I surf via All Topics, and pay no mind as to if it's Community or otherwise. All the forums move too slowly independently. But making a'worthy' or 'meaningful' thread nowadays isn't going to spawn that much activity. Too many of those who would have participated in the past are no longer around, for the changes to the site left them displaced. The BnutZ thread though? Not going to go over well here. You seemed to have had a good intent, but it just isn't something that most are going to gravitate toward. If you want to have a thread that gets the most participation, unfortunately it would need to be something that gets people pissed off, for that seems to be the only threads that get much activity these days. I would advise against doing it.
