It's not dead. People still look there, anyway.

It's just a coincidence, between people being busy, having blocks, lacking images to inspire them, and other such things.

Fall of Captions

Postby Mitera Nikkou » Sat May 03, 2008 6:03 am

I've just been wondering since I'm the only active person in there. It makes me feel lonely. And I won't be making captions forever, you know. By June I plan to stop and focus on other things, so... You know what to do. Don't let it become a ghost forum. You'll make me cry.

I can't really give a hard reason, but I can give my reason for stopping:

I just have no time anymore, plus a good image is hard to come by. Not to mention my imagination is on the fritz half the time and mine aren't any good anyhow. Frankly I'm amazed there's still one person doing them.

Really, I think it's because they're no longer on the main site. Gives people less to strive for.

Mix of the above, the captioning has always been an up and down activity, in general i've noticed a decline in it in all sites not just here.

the lack of a list location that used to exist doesn't help with exposure for new/other people.

Personally I lost intrest in tfs all together.

I can't speak for anyone else though; since I haven't visited the caption room in over 4 months now

I never was one to caption images, but my writing time has declined appreciably as my high school career comes to an end.
