Yes, that forum is old school. I used to post on there a long time ago but there are some quite silly rules that put me off e.g. don't comment too many times in a row, which doesn't make sense to me. If I want to reply to different people, it's better to reply in separate comments, not lump them all together.

I think all sites are more active the more we post...but some of us don't have the time or energy to post every day due to real life situations. I like just being around, not constantly posting. I post when I have something to say, not every day.

That's one reason I didn't start an account on Tumblr: I'm not especially interested in artwork or music videos. I like writing, and DW seems more focused on writing. If I was on Tumblr I doubt I'd reblog all the artwork and I'd have a pretty boring account.

I haven't worked out how to join a DW community yet! haha. I'm not the most technical of people.

Pillowfort sounds pleasant though😊
