Unhappy My forum just died.... :(

Really, I no longer get a substatial amout of traffic & none of my regular users are posting anymore. I also noticed, we dropped in the search engine rankings(Used to be third in the search for 'computer programming forum', now nowhere in the first 10 pages of results). This stinks.... I tried sending out a forum anouncement to try and get people to come back and post, but it disn't work. Does anyone have any suggestions that I can use to try and get people to come back?(Links in sig)

Re: My forum just died.... :(

Ask your (former) regular users what they don't like about the board anymore, listen carefully and then change those things.

Just a couple of quick observations which would make me think twice about going to your forumn....

Getting an error on the home page is definitely a turn off (onload_functions is undefined).

The odd domain (.co.nr) makes me suspicious about clicking on the link.
