Despite not having a chat thread, activity has not declined. It hasn't exactly blossomed, but I think we've shown that we can do fine without it. People are actually posting more threads, and we actually haven't had an increase in shitty threads, pretty much the same amount as usual actually.
So good job guys, keep it up. But when the chat thread comes back, combine this with the activity created by that thread, seriously.
Give yourselves a pat on the back. Or a couple of them. Myself, I prefer the "seal of approval" from my old D.A.R.E. classes in elementary school, in which I clap and make seal noises for myself.

I think activity in other threads have increased a bit but it doesn't seem like as much activity as the chat thread would get

Look at the stats for yourself. The chat thread didn't give us any advantage. I think only a few days in the past year has the chat thread genuinely been really, really active.
I only make seal noises when slapping my coat arms together
I need somewhere to post stupid shit
I even made my first thread in no chat week giggle;

I must say, picturing this in my head, that was quite humorous. n_u
Also, I was quite surprised yesterday.
there's no chat threads?
Well done, gentlemen.
And it was all thanks to me. baddood;
I never post in the chat thread anyway so I dont care giggle;
I would like to inform everybody that today has been the most active day since the sixth. baddood;

You know when you pop a huge zit and there's globules of icky everywhere and you're like ICKY and you're getting it off but then you need to keep pressing on the zit until it's all out and THEN you feel better and hey your skin starts to clear up?
It's like that!

YES.
Usually whenever I pop them a small bit comes out but that is only the beginning.
I usually can tell when I'm done when it explodes out of my face and then it heals fast, usually around 3-4 hours.
Boyah is awfully boring without a chat thread.
...I actually had to make a thread. akudood;

No dude, that sounds gross baddood;
you guys seem to forget this isn't a chat thread
I don't think it works like that. People post about the same amount each day because that's just what they do. I have my 1-2 things to share a day and whether they're going in the chat thread or in their own spammy thread, I will say them dammit. And then I reply to the threads that pertain to my interests.
The chat thread isn't exactly necessary, but I think getting rid of it just promotes shitty topics. Having 50 shitty topics instead of a chat thread with 50 shitty posts is not better. At all. I mean, I know this is just an experiment, but I think it's dumb as shit. I don't think we can say "post this much PLUS what you posted before in the chat thread." because it will not happen.

Like I said, we haven't had an increase in shitty threads. I know it's unlikely that people will give us that activity once the chat thread is back, but I'm trying to hope.

Activity wasn't affected, the point is that no one comes here because we have like 30 active members, thus activity is just naturally lower than expected. I know I come here half as much as I used to because no one is usually on.
We don't need a chat thread, people just post random shit in there anyway. Have something to discuss, make a thread about it, people contribute to the thread, etc. etc.
I almost never use the chat thread anyways. It's almost never interesting in the least.
