Maybe not in terms of post quality, but in terms of intensity for sure. You had:
• The year kicking off with the release of @Made in Heaven's infamous thread, which went on to be one of the forum's biggest, accumulating 975 replies as of today
• The "Saar Wars"/curry caste wars (aka @anandconda vs everyone), which nearly broke the forum during the Summer
• The Amelie Cheung vs @ColdBoy & @/lonelysince2006 drama. Most probably astroturfed in hindsight, with @ColdBoy and @A concerned mom likely being sockpuppets ran by Amelie herself. Still was a big deal while it was going on
• New registrations peaking during the year thanks to BP tiktok normoids finding out about Master forums
• The Arab supremacist race wars (aka @comradespiderman29 and @Made in Heaven vs everyone). Culminated in the latter getting a 3-month hardban and the former being exposed as a LARPjeet
• The 2nd part of the Saar Wars, aka @anandkonda vs self-hating curries and WNs. This was when I began beefing with him, before I eventually grew tired of his ragebait and put him on ignore
• @DarkStar hitting his peak that year, with all his threads in the Must-Read section having been posted in 2024. @Ron.Belgrade was another user who peaked in 2024, with the whole ".Belgrade" meme/cult starting and eventually leading to drama that climaxed in the immediate aftermath of his ascension
• @Aegon Targaryen/@Balikesir being exposed as the same person. Combined with the @comradespiderman29 expose, as well as other, more minor LARP exposes (like @Wombles and @Confessor), this contributed to effectively shattering trust on the forum for good
These incidents also weren't short-lived nor isolated either, with the year pretty much being a non-stop barrage of overlapping wars, exposes, and factionalism. 2024 was, in my opinion, the year this forum both peaked and imploded; site visits having gone down by a million comparing Feb 2024 to May 2025 (despite the release of ZOGflix's "Adolescence") further supports this. Checking site data for last month from similarweb (which filters out bot traffic), it appears that this forum has experienced an 80% drop in visitors compared to two years ago. It's no wonder people say it feels like a ghost town now:
^ May 2025 numbers (source)
^ Feb 2026 numbers
2025 felt like the forum's falling action; between the drop-off in visitor numbers (despite ZOGflix's propaganda show), user activity slowly dimishing, and a whole slew of big users being banned, chased off, or ragequitting (many after being exposed as LARPs, fags, or sissi cucks). In spite of constant drama involving prominent user after prominent user, nothing that happened in 2025 felt as "big" as what happened in 2024, as if the longtime userbase was implicitly aware of the site's erosion.
I don't think this forum's "dying" anytime soon, but I do very much feel like we've reached the beginning of the end. We're transitioning from the falling action to the start of the conclusion, and we'll just have to wait and see what's in store for the future of this forum
