For a while now I've noticed the wiki growing less and less active. We still have plenty of edits and new users still pop up sometimes, but they rarely stay long or get involved with the community in any way. Similarly, a lot of veterans, myself included, haven't been as active as we used to be. It used to be there would be at least one active blog every few days, but now the only ones that get any real amount of comments are the chapter review blogs, and even those never top 100 or even 50 comments. Chat's also been dead for at least a year now. I was never as active as some users, but even I've noticed it being used less and less, and not just because of the Discord server or the Skype group since the Discord is just as dead, and only about 3 people use Skype with any regularity. The problem with chat seems to be that nobody enters chat because nobody's ever in chat and nobody's ever in chat because nobody bothers to enter it. |

Do not add to it unless it really needs to be reopened. Consider creating a brand new forum instead.

The point behind my rambling is to try and find out why this is and what we can do about it. We tried social media before, but that's largely dead and didn't seem to help at all. Discussions are plenty active, but don't seem to spill over to the main wiki. It doesn't seem like there's declining interest in One Piece, since r/OnePiece is plenty active and I don't think the wiki is driving people away since we've gotten a lot better as a community over the past few years, especially compared to when I first started here in 2012. There are fewer arguments, stricter rules about rudeness and the admins have more power to ban users who turn toxic. Everything sounds fine from the outside, but things are still dead. I don't have any answers, but I'm hoping we can figure out why things are this way and what we can do about it. Any thoughts? Videogamep Talk 06:43, March 9, 2017 (UTC)
