idk what to do at this point.

I agree with you all.
Its sad when people leave but we all have our reasons.
As school gets harder people have less time to come on the internet and play games.
I will <3 this forum forever and WE WILL KEPT IT GOING no matter what.
Also I made many friends on here and I would hate for it to get closed down.
There may not be many members but there is still members. There will always be 1 member no matter what and that's ME!.

We won't leave it. I'm very sad that some members have just quir or found another forum but its their decision. :-) especially since i know one of the reasons so many members have just abandoned the site. But I'm staying on this forum until I move on with life, haha.

the thing i hate is that on different forums, people rely on favoritism, bribery, etc. to get ranks and stuff. forums aren't about becoming admins, mods, chat mods, etc. it's about friendship, and mainly about bearville. i've been on here for a while and i hate how sometimes perfectly fine forums just die down.

i sort of agree with perry the platypus because i usually come on during school days to take breaks. during the summer, i'm mostly away at tutoring school, vacationing, etc.

i was away from this forum mostly because i have about 7 hours of tutoring everyday. i only come on when it's really late at night when nobody is pestering me to do my homework or any of that sort.

i agree claire.

yeah, the other forum, i guess you can say 'competing with us' is taking all our active members by bribing them with a higher rank, and such.

we must not let them get to us.
i know we can get more active.

i give a HUGE thanks to gabby and caryn for trying to get us active and recruit new members by a contest.

i hope mel and katie can help us!

They are not competing, they just happened to do it on accident. ;c we mustn't blame them.

very sorry this is happening but my forum only has 2 members sorry i stopped bp for a while cause i went into a new game and i was like NOO mjust get back to bv so not i am back here but i think people will rejoin or maybe they are busy at summer,...

glad you guys can understand, some ideas would really help. i decided i really shouldn't take a a break because i feel too bad to leave, and i want to do everything in my power to help.

My ideas:
-Maybe advertise the Recruiting Contest and the ability to win Chat Mod from it around the forum more, as I don't remember even seeing it until you showed me and I know a lot of people would love to have a job on a forum. (:

-Staff applications - They don't need to be available 24/7, but it would be nice to be able to apply for a job if someone has experience and is willing to help out, and it would also help because like I said above, people love helping out!

-Special Events - Such as the Bearville Playground Games, which never really got started. They could be chatbox games, meetups on Bearville with admins and other members, banner contests, etc. (:

I will add more if I think of anything else!

thank you gabi
we support you <3
and i agree with meg, some other ideas ;-)

We could have a little recruit party. Like a bunch of members get on BABW together and just recruit! Do not spam, but politely ask. It's up to them to join or not(: then whoever recruits the most can win Chat Mod. :3

I agree but don't take a break please well I did and now I feel forgotten so I'm trying to stay really active now I missed y'all

Ideas:
Hold more contests
Chatbox games, for tickets
Start up the BP Games.
Recruit more, obviously
There is also a function in the admin panel where you can send an email to everyone who hasn't visited the site in however many days.. that may help

I know the reason.
It's so sad because we were like, the top forum that everyone wanted to join, but now....

I wished if there was no competition with all the other forums. I'm really sorry that this is happening Gabi.

I do agree omg
Nobody comes on, which might be another reason i'm quitting
But time comes and time goes, the old people who used to come on BP are long gone now... people just get replaced by new people and things {in this case forums} get replaced by other forums... it's just how life works.

I agree with Liz. This forum is basically getting replaced

Why thank you;D

I think a lot of us know why this is happening :c

Don't worry Gabi one day this forum will come out of the dust and we will all of us members and staff and everyone will work together and help. We will recruit and do all that we can do to make bp the best forum ever, and one day those who have called bp names will not be able to find anything bad to say about it. I love this forum and for me its the best! we just need to work a little harder and i am sure we will be able to do it C:

Well I am sorry to hear that because I just joined and it's seem kinda fun I guess. Well I like to post stuff maybe change the name of the forum and start a new get jiggy wit it people and say what's really on your mind reel new members in with your realness talk about issue everyone can relate to. Lets not just be forum lets change lives with our opinions and advice. Just don't throw the towel in with out fight first. Who's with me?

It's been fun whilst it lasted I try to come on whenever I have the chance but I find only a few people are online I may hold a Compititionfor embroid sash and 10 gallon hat if it continues like this xxx

I'm sorry Gabi that we are being inactive. I guess school and maybe other things are taking up people's time.
