For a well known international site, I am surprised at the extremely low activity on these forums. Apart from additions to the photo gallery, there appears to be very little discussion between aviation enthusiasts. I check the home page daily, and the same topic can be on top of the list for days or even weeks, with just a few extra viewings. I also note that the last post in the Announcements forum was 4 years ago.
I am a member of a forum where I can read the latest post, get up to make a coffee, and there are 4 to 6 new posts on my return. It is a dedicated recreational aviation site with dozens of discussions running concurrently. It has a sister site for all other topics. As an indication, here is a small clip of the Last Post column showing post timings.
Just a personal observation.
