I think I know why most of the topics in this board tend to die.

Quite simply: The Dojo.

I'm going to list the larger topics and why I THINK they died. Re-emphasis: I THINK. Please don't have a go at me or anyone else.

The Mansion: This was a 'addition' to the dojo and I think that it ended up just being confusing having two areas with separate storylines. Plus, most, if not all, the things that we did in the mansion could also be done in the dojo.

The Haunted Mansion: This one's harder, but could be due to the end of the first 'bosses' in there and people forgetting, or to Agaranok hijacking it.
Led to the Mansion.

TIA Party: Lack of interest.

TIA Robot anime: Ditto, plus no-one replying to posts, most significantly Agaranok, who was playing the side of evil.

TIA Quest: Unknown. I never took part and by the time I saw it the plot was beyond me.

TIA Endless Nightmare: Ditto.

TIA Cruise Ship: See Party.

TIA Tropical Resort: See above.

Possibly the largest factor here is that the Dojo is very easy to jump into, having no fixed plotline and requiring no major knowledge of past events.

Actually, the main reason that the mansion slowed down (no, it's not dead yet) is because Zeldafan (one of the main driving forces behind it, as she had the most characters there) had to deal with some emotional issues in real life & subsequently stopped posting for a few days. At the time, I only had one character that I could RP as, and he was caught up in events with some of Zeldafan's characters, so there wasn't anything I could do.

No, I'm not blaming her, in fact I supported her decision to take some time out.

Both ILS & Zeldafan, along with myself, like the fact that the mansion has a much lighter tone than the dojo, and it allows us to show a different side to our characters.

I'm sorry, Hawk, but by making this topic, you're potentially starting a whole lot of dojo hate...

What Gar said.

It's not the dojos fault. If anything, it's peoples fault, me included. I could have just posted in the dying topics, but I didn't. So if anything, blame the users, and not the topic.

I can probably be blamed for the Cruise Ship's demise, thanks to my building the TIA Mansion...

Fine.

But reread the line that says 'I think'.

My opinion.

Okay.

I made my point.

Any objections to me taking this all off?

Nah, you may as well leave it up. Other people may have opinions.

NOOO!

What have I done!?

I've created a monster that's slowly devouring all the other topics until it alone is the only RP!

I think the Mansion hasn't died so much as it's just in a rut right now.
