It kinda tends to come with the "forum cycle" package.

ton of new noob forum users ~> ton of useless threads that make you want to scream "IDGAF" and post other spiderman memes but youre too lazy to do so and you wonder why the hell you even use the forums

noob members learn how to use a forum without annoying the hell out of the whole community ~> threads die out and reading the forums gets boring and you wonder why the hell you even use the forums and im rambling too much about nothing i need to go to bed
