The problem with the site is that it is no longer an active
community.
Everyone expects other people to give up the goods but no one
actually wants to contribute. It's all take from the majority of
the site and it's sad to see how no one wants to interact anymore.

ok guys, so what do you propose we do then?
We can all bitch and moan about this site not being what it used to
be, that's the easyest thing!
These things aren't just gonna resolve themselves.

How about implementing a live chat? Kinda sucks having to come back
every 30 minutes to see if anyone has responded

For some reason. Msg boards as a whole die. And many times new
folks form new groups on Facebook groups. Maybe thisbjiche it can
happen. Maybe not.

What I want to know is if people aren't coming here anymore, where
are they going? Farhad? I come here because this is really all I
know (in English at least). I haven't come across any other site of
this type as "big" as this. So is the (active) interest as a whole
just dying?

This site is the only good place I know of to discuss my fetish of
males being changed into females.

dummies who don't realize the spamming was in response to CJ's
selective application of rules

Is a "state of the site" thread or "cj haters meet cj fanboys"
thread? He's gone now or at least for a while so who cares? I
wasn't the biggest fan of the guy either but I don't think he was
the maker or breaker of the site. I think that's giving too much
credit.
Are there any suggestions on what we, as normal users, can do to
improve the experience/commuity of this place?

Tggame is the most constant forum campare to western forums. Mainly
due to being just one forum community that includes writing and fan
translate discussions as part of the "culture(?)", Thats what it
sets Farhad's apart in my opinion.
The writers come and go, but the community rarely be rude or insult
the writers. Its always constructive criticism.
I guess segregating the community makes it a lot harder keep track
and discourage some content creators by the lack of response since
the readers discover the content too slowly?
I have no idea if my assumption would provide any enlightenment on
this topic but this is just my own 2cent.

Have tried to start a couple of discussion threads over certain
stories, but that does not seem to be as popular as movie
discussions, since no one ever joined in.

Well, I've been upfront from the beginning that I was here to plug
a webcomic I like so I also won't deny I'm probably not the best
person to help in this situation generally.

All I want to do is thank the person who made this website. Without
this website I would not of been able to learn about all the
different shows and movies about body swap, possessions, masking
ect.. Its great people like you who keep this place going strong.
Thank you all for what you do.

I'll say it. All the snark, snippyness, and overall lack of sense
of community is what is killing this site. .. back in the day,
people were friendly and cordial. We all came here to discuss our
quirky little fetish, and we found a community of others that made
us feel a little less alone in the world.... the attacks that went
on against CJ were completely unfair. He was on here more and cared
more than anybody about the quality of this site. But he took so
much crap, it is no dang wonder he left. I seriously hope he is ok.
Most of us come here with sadness and depression in our real lives
and this is a safe outlet for our fantasies and kinks. I hope CJ
didn't take the attacks personally...
...anyway, I miss the days when there were a dozen or so decent
people that frequented this site. This is the 30th post in this
thread and I've seen examples of the snippyness and snark that I
mentioned earlier. THAT is what is killing this site.

Not to belittle you, because I think you were just being open and
honest about your feelings, but I think you're projecting when you
say "most of us come here with sadness and depression". I mean,
there have multiple informal polls in the past, and even contrary
to my thoughts, the majority of people seem to be average cisgender
people that happen to have interest in this. I think you will find
a far higher % of transgender and others struggling with their
sexual identity or other issues on here than anywhere else as well
but they still technically make up a minority.
If you (not Bob specifically) are a person with depression I would
suggest being very careful of the sites that you visit. The
internet is not a nice place. The nastiest this site has EVER been
still pales in comparison to other sites like Youtube or Reddit.
"I" don't want this place being treated like a children's site
which I believe cj fostered that kind of tone with overzealousness.
In life, people argue, people chastize and talk snarky. Part of
being a normal adult (which statistically most users are) is being
able to take such things in stride or at least not holding a grudge
over it. I found it demeaning many times on here when entire
conversations would be removed at the slightest hint of conflict.
If you have depression or other mental ailments I can see one being
sensitive to that but I don't think the site should cater to those
people because they are simply not the typical user. Obviously,
courtesy should always be the standard but I believe part of good
conversation is being able to release all aspects of your emotions,
to a certain degree, including negative ones.

I think it's part and parcel to how the internet's tone has
evolved. In the anonymity of the web, civility and consideration
seem to be a casualty, especially in unmoderated forums. I've seen
a lot of flame wars and troll-fests escalate fast
and this is not a new phenomenon.
As far as this site having been more civil in the past, it had more
moderators and violations got nipped in the bud more quickly. As
the number of active moderators declined, cj stayed the most active
and started to take heat for a)
being too aggressive shutting things down and b)
enforcing the rules unevenly.
But it does seem there has been more presumption of privilege to
demand-and-be-given and that may be generational or simply a
Zeitgeist. There are still discussions about things relating to the
subject of transformation and the community. Others' perceptions
may differ for a few reasons I can think of.

I think new Trusted Users should be appointed since the existing
ones have clearly lost their passion for site moderation.
