I thought we were making progress here, where did everyone go?
I'm still hanging around....
I have actually been pretty busy myself and have not had much time to work on things. I did get more state icons up the other day
Actually, there is more traffic here than I've seen on PUX/HYX the past several days....
There has been nothing on PUX for a few days. I'm happy to see folks coming here more.
Most of the people posting I don't recognize from PUX. I see a few are are old arvee club members. I noticed several came over from the facebook group.
We were camping last weekend very busy during the week and at family function all day yesterday. Finally a day to rest.
Haven't seen a single post on RV-Itch/PUX/HYX in several days!!
It's been dead on PUX. Sad to say but when I look down the list of posts it's mostly me. 4Campers+g-kids
Mostly I just read. I think I have posted more in the last month than I ever had. I used to read PUX daily but it just got dead. It's too bad it used to be thriving with most people behaving. So far I check back here frequently but I don't always logon. I have hope.
I'm hoping Pop Up Times gets lot of folks to join. It's nice to chat with other campers, learn new tricks and how others camp. It's already better than PUX IMHO. We have someone who wants the site to work, keeps it updated and responds to users. It's hard to believe that PUX still has ads for the PUX Store and Pop Up Times magazine. SAD.
Thanks dno!
No problem,
I would love to see more people come over as well, I just don't feel right about going on PUX and promoting myself. It always bugged me they never took those ads down.

Well, I put a post on PUX that Pop Up Times was back. I just sent a PM to a long time PUX member too.
Whoever took over PUX has done squat to it. As an internet user when I come across a site with ads that are years old it's time to leave. Funny is a couple years ago someone posted about the magazine, wanting to subscribe.
There has only been one post on there in well over a week, we're getting more traffic here!!
I agree with the lack of anything from the new owners. Not sure what is wrong over there.

Looks like the new PUX owners were only thinking about $$. They are obviously not campers.
I'm gonna have to get a new license plate!
I would think they are should have been in a great position if they tried to maintain things, they could make much more money. Due to the amount of sites they have they have their own ad network. I'm guessing they get all the money for themselves unlike google and the other networks who had to share with the site owners.
Saw one new post over there tonight from Spirit Deer. I suggested she take a look around here!!!

I sent her a PM on PUX telling her this is the new place to be! LOL
How much money are they going to make by running it into the ground.

I wonder if they even know the site is still in their group. The ads mean nothing if no one looks at them.
There is still a ton of content there that people are finding so while there may not be much new content being generated there are people reading the content that is there. Since they have a ton of sites they clearly are more about quantity over quality.
Been about 11 days since I've seen anyone post on there, the site should be booming this time of year!!
Make that 13 days without a new post over there??

I haven't even looked there in a couple weeks.
Too much fun here!
As a Senior Moderator, I check there every day. But again, today as usual not a single post...
There was actually a new post there today, and the guy fixed his own problem without any input. I posted a reply to him just so that he didn't think "nobody home" (though that is pretty much what is happening there)
I can barely look over there anymore
