basically sums up this whole subforum's problem currently.
RT was taken by ATR. the only reason why this place is still here is to control the impending backlash from the people who regularly utilize the subforum.
now that ATR is here, RT is dying. and with every post in ATR, RT fades more and more
the waves of new forumers tend to choose ATR, because it's the easiest and quickest to find, and OT because its description is appealing to the new folk. RT's description is kinda in a grey area, like its not sure on what it wants to be yet. so, people usually assume this place is just the unspecific odd one out and they skip it.
if you ever wondered why RT's dying, blame it on this.

idk to try and control the subforum's balance, we should just fuse OT and RT into one.
make it one OT, or create another General Discussion subforum with the new space. just my idea here.

| When I was new to the forums I did go to ATR first. But then I got bored and checked out the subforums under Club Houses. I considered foruming in OT at first but RT took the cake for me for some reason |

i enjoy how there isn't many new people always coming here. It gives me a chance to actually get to know them.
i remember it being an overflow of new people always coming to ot. Is that still true? |

"i enjoy how there isn't many new people always coming here."
you need to maintain user balance in this forum or else it'll be as dead and empty as WWC got.
"Is that still true?"
new people always come to ot. a new wave every afternoon.

"this is a problem but a another problem is more forumers are quitting then joining"
another point i want to make
the winter season is always the most detrimental to the forums. more people get bored because it's empty, more people quit. then the forums get smaller and smaller as time goes by.

"the heavily-moderated craphole that is killing off rt"
that is exactly what RT used to be
now it's the main hivemind of crapposters like 81U but even so, a select few bits of quality hide beneath the new ground made by new RTers

"i like the fact ik everyone"
that's good and all but like i said, the subforum needs balance
if you know everybody, and that's it, that's actually bad for the forum
there's no new folks walking it at all, and if any, rarely

"Rt never was heavily moderated"
it had a set-specific meaning of being ROBLOX talk. being "ROBLOX" talk, it had several sets of rules as well. therefore the mods had more work to do here. but now everything shifted to ATR and this place can move freely

@jacob
it's a good idea to give rt a new topic or just ot+rt=gd but i would like to note
if it was a topic it would have to maintain the community it has now etc
if they rt and ot became one that might be to much ppl idk lmao |

"then explain why lmad has more threads"
what is there to explain?
lmad has a set-specific purpose, and its purpose is to promote the site's economy and catalog
and in doing so, it was successful.
