i agree that we really need people to join again, but we've attempted advertising a ton in the past and it never worked. i think a lot of the old fantage community that really made the forum just got older, and moved on, especially the mods and admins. not to mention, most people who occasionally post on here don't even use fantage anymore.
honestly, i really miss this forum and the people i've met on it, but i think FF has run its course.
