Lack of new people is killing the backroom and the entire forum

[pevergreen]

I have a couple of suggestions. Fix the search so it works, which it hasn't done since the upgrade to vBulletin 4.x (this is a common problem with vB 4.x forums). And enable search for the Backroom. Search was disabled for the Backroom because of lack of resources. With fewer users, it's not such a problem. There are some real gems in the Backroom archives that are lost because it can't be searched.

Hello Pann.

I don't know about you guys, but search works for me.

I think its one of the best searchs around, keywords, users, words.

Never had an issue with it...

The last time I tried it was a few months ago, and it didn't work. Just tried it now, and it works. I still think search should be reenabled for the Backroom.

No disagreements here.

I'm disappointed now that I didn't register earlier if things were that active back then. But I suppose i'm here now and I can help the activity by being one of the new people.

That's the spirit

Come on guys, is it that hard to discuss something without throwing insults at each other? I mean, i've hardly been on this forum for long so i'm not familiar with what you're discussing right now, but surely you can be a bit more respectful.

Can anyone fill me in on this or is the topic merely what the thread says, in that the backroom doesn't have enough interesting topics and people?
