Possible Board Closure: Please Read and Respond!

Me and my fellow Mod Lost in Translation have been discussing this, and we think that it may be time to close the 'Life On Mars' board. Our post counts have been declining over the past few months and we have very few regular posters. As you know, Fan Forum requires that we average at least 15 posts per day, with lower numbers than that leading to warnings and then possible closure of the board. We would prefer to go out under our own terms rather than be forced to close due to low post counts.

Please let us know what you think. We'd be glad to hear any suggestions or advice to renew interest here. Remember that to keep the board going, we need the commitment of a few regular, dedicated posters. As much as we love this board, please don't just post to "save" the board and then disappear again, because we'll be in the same position that we're in now if you do.

I'd be okay with that I mean, we did the same thing for BSG, Tracey. The post counts were never the issue, just the fact that there were so few of us to get it every week.

I know it must have been very difficult to post this Tracey. However, if the fans aren't here, it's hard to keep a board active.

You guys did keep this board going long past the normal expiration date and you had a very nice and welcoming core group.
I just wanted to stop in and say "thank you."

Maybe you guys can start a thread at the TV board just for LoM get-togethers.

I'm so sorry this board is going, I love this show (and wish I posted more often here like I used to once upon a time) this show and board was amazing and you guys did such a great job at keeping it going for as long as you did.
