I'm also on a web forum that sees low traffic.  Every so often
I consider moving to one of the active ones.

Same here, Cheri.  I still lurk occasionally, but usually the only
thing I see is the plethora of spam and trolls.  I also miss the days
(years, actually)  when ASDLC  was vibrant and helpful to a lot of
people.

I notice that when someone posts a relevant post, they get an answer.
Unfortunately, there are very few of those posts going on these past few
months. Doug F, Susan, and some others are real good about answering legit
questions. I do miss the days when this newsgroup was active and
informative, before the "idjits" stumbled in. :-)

is that, when a new visitor arrives, they will see all these worthless,
predatory ads, regurgitated from the bowels of Mordor, and think that is
what alt.support.diet.low-carb is about.
I know this grates on some of you "old timers", but I think it is
necessary to keep a light in the window to let new visitors know
that support is available, if they will just ignore the dark that seeps
into the newsgroups, and post their question(s).
