This forum is strange

The same people post. There’s usually very few new people. If there are new people they post once and never return. Has anyone else noticed this?

Well, I don’t know how I did it, but I somehow found a list of the most frequent posters. You would be surprised at how many regular posters there are. I recognized at least the first 50 names. It may be the same people posting but there’s a lot of them.

I’ve never been on other forums so I have nothing to compare this forum to

But I certainly notice like 50 of the same ppl mainly.

And newbies usually disappear

But I don’t swallow.

We are just so cool and intimidating lol just kidding.

I dunno why.

Maybe a lot of sz ppl got anxiety and are anti social.

Took me a longgg time to get used to this place

I start topics and reply’s and delete them constantly. My own issues.

Sure others have reasons why they or why not they want to participate and post.

This forum is helpful if you participate or not.

I think a part of it is that people come here during crisis and leave when the crisis is resolved. It’s a good place for that, considering the theme of the forum. I might not stick around, since reading about schizophrenia gets a little grating after a while. Hopefully i can leave it all behind me at some point.

Some people stay, some people don’t. As for new posters, maybe you just don’t notice them. As someone who has to confirm new peoples posts, I would say that there are several a day usually.

There seem to be quite a few new users lately from what I’ve noticed. Me, I usually just lurk and ask questions now and then or vote in polls.

To me, new people are people who have only been here less than a year. And there’s some of those now who post regularly. So to me, they’re new, but they’re also regulars.

Can confirm. I only come to the forum for help with a crisis and to bring me back to reality so I’m rarely here.
