It’s the end of an era :(

It was a great place to really discuss all the things I loved about the show and the magic of the actors together!!

I remember joining almost 14 years ago, for this forum only. :) The mods back then were Neel luvs tony and JaydeeMac (sp?). Kia had already been around for a while. :lol: Then so many people disappeared.... Maybe that's the worst. It's difficult to keep things going when so many people just disappear. For me, it was done when Myra left. That was just one departure too many. Oh well, we have other XF forums here. Btw, we should make sure to post their links all over here (especially in this thread), before the board closes!!! :)

Honestly I hate to say it, but it seemed to me like it was the revival that killed off a lot of interest in this forum for some reason. I remember the episode threads were very active for season 10 and there was a lot of excitement and discussion, but then even by the time of season 11 interest had dropped waaay off, and after that it was even quieter. There always used to be at least four or five regular posters on this board in threads like the M/S thread, but after s11 a lot of people left

I’m not sure why though, because if anything the revival seems to have brought a lot of new younger fans to social media like Twitter, but it just seemed like this forum never picked back up again after the revival

Fans just mostly use Twitter and Tumblr a lot now for fandom although IMHO, I don’t know how anyone can have actual discussions on social media as opposed to forum postings! :confused:

I will leave the links where fans can continue to post anything related to the show in the rest of :ff: so I hope to see you guys post and talk when the itch gets you!

These threads and their forums are under the General Discussion section of :ff:.

The main Sci-Fi/Fantasy forum X-Files

Also, The 90’s forum
The X-Files

That’s true I suppose, although I think that Instagram is more of a thing than tumblr these days, but I could never get into either anyway :lol:


Thanks for those links :thumbs_up:

No problem! Hope to see guys there! :wave:
