Well, that explains it (Tavern)

People have been mentioning the tavern is more or less abandoned at this point, well, I just figured out why. I posted a thread there but it doesnt show up in recent forum activity, just like member diaries, you would have to actually go to the Tavern to find out that anyone had posted anything. If you think about it, it is pretty much inevitable that it would turn into a ghost town there. I would also understand why you wouldnt put it in the recent activity as it is could swamp out other things which are perhaps more important (pleas for help for example) but then Jim's Cafe is also listed in recent activity so...

Anyway, practical upshot of which is, if all those people who keep asking about the Tavern wish to see its resurrection, it seems you cant just wait, you need to visit regularly to keep it alive.

Hey Dante. When the Tavern was created it was intentionally set up that way due to the "nature" of it. We don't want new members going in there via seeing a recent posting and thinking, "What is this madhouse that I've just joined"? :D Fun fact - members under the age of 16 (Public Access) can't even see it at all.
And as you mentioned, the diaries don't show up and there's a few other things also for various reasons. I hope that clears it up for you! Cheers :)

*dunno I figured that might be the reason, but I have heard plenty of people mention it has gone quiet, and yet no one posts there or seems to visit, so... thats what happens.
