but like way less people actively using the boards

feels like if you're coming here every day for the POTD might as well make an account and maybe use the boards

Many people are just reading.

Many people are splitting up in different boards.

And many people are active with just a handfull of postings per day, most people eont read because other topics are more interesting.

I mean, you have 32 postings yourself, and I can't remember reading any other posting fron you.

And if you look at me, I'm probably the same to you.

i just mean there plenty thousands of more people coming to the site to just vote on the potd but probably dont do anything else with the site, i think highest ive seen active users lately was maybe around 1500+ which is still less than how many people vote in the potd

It's almost like the forums aren't the most active driver of traffic on the website.

Some people just entered GameFAQs through the homepage and see the polls.
I set https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/user/messages as my shortcut to GameFAQs tho.

I don't get why that;s surprising

Most people don't come to gamefaqs to use the forums, they come to look up walkthroughs and cheats for vidya games

If you want to know how to BLJ in Mario you're probably not going to go to CE and make a topic about Muffins while you find out

^ Hey now that's completely unfair!

Maybe I'm wrong, but, how do you know how many people are using the forums?

If you are going by active users, that's a snapshot.

Not a daily total.

A fraction of how many people pop in to lurk.

If they can cut POTD, then they can cut the forums as well.

GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC
