Ahh, yes. Good times.
[quote]Your thoughts on something, Dogg…
It is VERY unusual for a Forum like this to survive ONE year, much less going on TEN!
They seem to either “die a slow death” OR morph into no more than glorified Chat Rooms were a few people stroke each others egos.
Certainly “The Nation” has had its growing pains (who can forget the drama of 2-3 years ago…OUCH!)…but its surviving stronger than ever!
Any thoughts on why its seemed to survive?[/quote]
Quality writers, quality products, quality information and cutting-edge information and research.
Mix that in with some knowledgeable forum posters and people that have been here from the beginning, and you get a forum that continues to exist and thrive…even with the influx of new people.
The forum has gone through many changes in the last few years. T-Nation caters to different groups of people now than it originally did. With that comes more people with no clue regarding nutrition and training. Which means, it takes more time and patience to answer questions and give them information. And it gives some of the “vets” something to do (help a fellow lifter).
But at the same time, it brings in more revenue (i.e. sales of supplements). Revenue = growth = new products = more goodies for everyone!
