How long have you been here?

[GentleGiantsCichlidKeeper]

I don’t do a lot else, I have a bit of a fish addiction problem.
If only I spent all that time on something else...
Nah

Nothing wrong with that.

Now I feel obsessive, as I've been here for just over 2 months and have over 200 messages lol.

3k in 1 year

There's no rush to post. Quality over quantity. I got the majority of my posts in the first 3 years, then school and uni has occupied me more. I prefer to post where I could be informative or when I'm following someone's tank.

We had a whole thread over this with that exact same title I believe. I’ve stopped my high number posting and have taken more of a backseat approach where I observe more before I speak if I should. A similar idea to yours.

Are we talking about social media....or the forum. lol.

Seriously though, whether it's social media, or a quality forum such as ours, because of the vast chasms of knowledge between participating people, you're always going to get an element of drivel going on, it's the nature of the beast.

Social media, and if you try to correct someone other people flame you hard core instead of trying to learn correct information.

At least here if you post something incorrect someone will correct you in a respectful way and we learn from each other...on fb your shamed, cursed on, and then blocked or booted from a group lol

Man I’ll tell you what, if I had done what I did here but on various social media groups I would have been banned a lot sooner lol.

Exactly, but here you were given the chance to learn and grow and are a better fish keeper bc of it. On fb you do something or say something wrong and you get booted...or you correct someone’s mistaken information and your booted

I agree, my memory may be a little fuzzy but I remember it being quite a bit more active back in the day.

I assume since the Covid 19 pandemic many people are having life changing experiences including some members. Noticed a decline in activity.
