Hmm, kinda, but I wouldn't give up yet, I still have a good feeling about this place even though it may not look like anything great is going on, ill explain to you why if ya want to know, but becuase there are some people who think different of my reason, I prefer to tell through pm =]
Edited, I didn't realize I made a few grammar errors xP
ONLY IN AMERICA can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance. do banks have both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters. do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braile lettering. do people order double cheese burgers, large fries, and a diet coke. do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the friveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
Got on to check my topic, saw this one and I'm just gonna leave a few thoughts.
How much of a member base do we have here? About 10 maybe? That's not really big and unless you guys can actually do something about it I would suggest the move. I relize you all like this place but (mainly for the older members) you're gonna have to give it up sometime. It's like being a kid playing with toys: once your older you don't really play with toy cars or dolls anymore. You may less collect them for memories... like this forum's recycle bin. It contains all our posts back into 06 (holy crap, that long ago O.O;). Memories are something people hold not only to look back on but also so they feel secure from matters that have come up before. They're what makes you you. Not everything lives forever, that includes a community. Don't be affraid to move on if you're worried about this place being forgotten. In a sense, you're carrying the blood.
Well yes, not everything can live forever... and about the "Toy" comparison: Yeah, your right... but sometimes, don't you just love going back to play with those toys once in a while, just for that nostalgia rush? I'll continue to come on here, no matter how dead the site is... It's my home. Even if there's only a post or two every day or two. I'm content with that... like I said, maybe some members dont want a huge member base...they just want their close friends that they were with through the 3 years they were in EF4, and maybe a newcomer every now and then...

Now you, my good man, know what it means to be in a clan. I've been in 'Tns' for more than 5 years with my brother rayzak and some other good friends. Although the clan seemed to have died more times than i can count, i am a member and always will be.
I agree with you person, i'd thought of it that way myself as i began to get older. Tns doesn't play as many games as they used to. we play halo 3 a lot, but one of my best friends there has moved and hasn't been on for about 6 months. I agree with what you say about carrying the blood of the clan as well. I've named myself Tns King on every game and system i've owned. one of my main email addresses is even " Thetnskingaxe@gmail.com xD". Only just because the sites are like a toy, it's a toy that we all play with. Our loyal base members in Tns has been 5 for the last 4 years, and in UnA we've only had about 8 base members, and they're still the most awesome clans ever. Especially UnA, i never expected that all my friends from MPH would still be together after all this time.
I'm not saying this to make anyone in particular stay here if they don't want to, but i decided to drop in some thoughts while i was passin through.
In my opinion clans with smaller base members are the best, cause you get to know all of them better as good friends.

I wouldn't always break things if they weren't always fixed.
Lol, umm aris, unfortunately, with so much going on with me and not bein on This site much, I forgot what my reason was x.x BUT, I still have a good feeling about ef4, and THAT I still know the reason too, so if ya still want, I'll pm you my explanation about ef4's growth that I have in mind
hahah, and king, I was literally gonna say most of what you said and use your clan as an example. =D but you said it perfectly ;P
