Just a little sad

That this site did not take off over the UK lockdown.
I guess that folk found other stuff to do, I can't knock that.
I have irons in many fires.

Depends on your view, I thought it had?

[gaza the instructor]

There is a loyal fan base and new ones joining.
I think maybe WE could think of some interesting
topic to be disgust, that might draw them out the
woodwork and get fingers talking.
I am trying ED but a limited brain capacity holds
me back.

There have been quite a lot of new members since lockdown began, some more active than others.
Even if they're just reading, the forum is still of benefit
I'm sure that the regular contributors will continue and others will join in when they feel inclined

The thing about forums is that you can't force people to post. I try to add comment where I have some valid input, but I'm happy to read when I can etc......

I am on a few and this is by far the busiest!

Totally agre with Mash. I am on quite a few forums as well and I think this is one of the busiest.

Just looked at the stats there have been 41 people on here in last 5 mins,which is ,nt bad .The majority of people just look and rarely talk like me ,I have,nt made many posts over several years but I do value other peoples posts especialy for new ideas ,and basic skills to make better ,different booze.
A good example of this is that yellow label yeast which is still travelling from china

Since inception, this site has had many daily visits.
Few choose to register.
But hey, that is OK.

This is a quality specialist site. Doing well against the Facebook sunami

[phantom]

Forum type sites have lost traffic since the rise of the mediocre Facebook.

FB gives them both easier access to the world but that also extrapolates to poor quality information in many cases as it's so much easier to push nonsense and/or inaccurate information i.e. peeps think it's a 1 stop shop.......

I'd guess the casual visitors are those who follow that it's not quite as easy as it seems.....

[gaza the instructor]

I don't do Facebook or any of them, mind you it has been suggested
because they all talk in fluent effluent as well. For those that don't
know what that means, it's a load of sh@t !!

I rarely post (same on any Forum/Social Media), but frequently browse and learned so much from this site.
When I first of all joined I found this site to be the most friendliest, welcoming and comprehensive regarding the craft of distilling. Pardon my french but this was the only site that didn't baffle me with bullsh#t.
Not posted here for a while now, but still reading and learning and appreciate all of you who do post invaluable information.
Thank you.

[Minimag]

I only post when I have something to add, which isn't often , still log on every day though

[Easydrinker]

A few nice posts above.
I don't FB, but saw a friends open entry a liitle while back, adverts and shite.
That is something this site offers, no ad-blockers needed!

Now are ya feelin' da love ED cause I love ya.

[Mash]

Steady on you pair of soppy gits, you will make me spit my tea.

Don't do FB - cos that does make me spit my tea ..... at the utter stupidity of the human race.

[gaza the instructor]

I am quite pleased about that Mash, it's a Girlie thing, I think??

[Easydrinker]

I hope that you are not being misogynistic gaza, there are laws against that.

[gaza the instructor]

I had an uncle kept mounting Goats, there is a law for that.
Sorry should read "mountain" for the benefit of any jealous
Welshmen.

[DorsetScott]

I also lurk more than talk, but am usually not far from here
