Looking at the dwindling number of users and with signs pointing towards a decline rather than an incline, perhaps it is time for the members of SC to take a look inward to what went wrong. Why did so many members leave? Why isn't anybody new joining? Why the low level of activity? I personally have a theory of my own.

I think that the fuel of SC's fire is new dramas. Despite what some may say, SC is very much a drama based community. Don't get me wrong, it's social too... But SC is at its most hot when there are several scathing dramas going on. The issue with this kind of community is that they often burn themselves out. As they need a drama to keep the engine going, they're constantly looking for dirt and other ways to get the best of people. Sometimes they go so far that the target of the drama or the loser just outright flees the site. Maybe this was ok when SC had a bigger influx of new people that actually stuck around and they could juice them to keep it going until they left. But eventually enough people leave, get bored, get banned, "grow up", or flee that the drama community has no choice but to go after its own people to keep it going. This has been seen in several communities such as the commentary community on YouTube. The drama model is not sustainable unless there is a heavy influx of new people to keep it viable. If all you have going for you is the drama, and there isn't enough people to fuel it, it just dies.

So with all that in mind, I present to you a few options to save SC and make it renewed and active:

1. Switch the focus-- make SC less about drama and more about idk, friendship or science or something?this one is unlikely to happen since after all, SC has been fueled by drama for so long

2. Get new members to join and stay-- this is more viable an option, but requires some kind of proactive measure but at least one person here to bring in all these new people. If you can manage to get the influx of new people to Luna SC numbers then perhaps this place will live on and maybe made more interesting with the new people

3. Burn out in a blaze of glory-- in this scenario, nobody new joins but the existing members cannabalize each other in a battle royale of doxxing, exposing, backstabbing, and drama. Losers flee the site without looking back and the winners claim their hollow throne as the grand champion of a site with nobody.

4. Fade away-- in this scenario, no new members show up, the focus isn't switched, and nobody cannabilizes anybody. SC slowly fades away into utter irrelevance, relegated only to forlorn corners of the internet, way back machine, and turncoat's mind.

So SC, which will it be?

 Why not vote? Do none of those scenarios seem plausible to you

Let's change the focus to science, art, and philosophy, and give all users of 3+ years mod trials upon request

I saw it as more of a lurker problem. 

 What do you mean a lurker problem

 We have lost Alice and peach, and tpg as well, xadem isn't here much and we lose a lot of users. Eventually, the site will die. When ever I make science posts they are ignored, but when drama happens I'm suddenly in the spotlight trying to explain myself as I run and hide and I don't think I'm the only user who feels this way

I just come here on occasion. I don't think there's anything to really save this place, and I personally am indifferent even if there are people here I enjoy, and sure maybe since you've all connected for years you don't like the idea of an online forum dying. I just want to get my life sorted and hopefully one day limit my access to the internet as much as possible. 

I do miss Alice and Peach, and I hope they are doing quite well in life wherever they may be. 

We should change the focus to rats and my little pony as well as subsistence farming.

 Hell yeah 

I feel like it's no fun to post here becasue wif you make a thread turncoat will just spam it with conversations that have nothing to do with the thread just to troll and get attention.

basicly every thread gets derailed so nothing can be discussed for very  long. all good threads are ruined with pages asnd pages of private conversations be tween TC and whoever is willing to engage with him. the recent Iceberg thread is an example of that https://sociopathcommunity.com/Forum/Topic/23864/1/the-sc-iceberg-explained-
