I was a member of various bulletin boards over the years, and most of them died out. I'm not talking about these: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulletin_board_system). I'm talking about PHP based boards such as Invision, phpBB, vBulletin, etc Over time the admins just grew old and cranky and probably ran out of pocket money to keep the boards alive as they grew over time. The only surviving ones alive today are funded by donations. Also with things like Reddit, Discord, Fakebook etc means much of the conversation has shifted onto those platforms, and they're 'free' so there's no maintenance costs to worry about. |
