i for one have run a forums for the past 5 years, my current forum has grown in the past month, partly down to facebook and partly to new game releases, i thought i was slowly dying but all of a sudden i have picked up, nothing has changed on the site other than a few themes

Hello webmasters, i have a different opinion, i open a twitter account about 3 months ago and send a massive email to my users to follow the forums twitter account. Daily i post on twitter links to my forum where they can see videos or intresting pictures, i have found that every time i post i get over 200 new visits to the thread, and many people that where not aware of my forum are now because they follow the twitter account because someone did a retwitt or mark a post as a favorite.

My forums twitter account is @mexicoarmado its in spanish but you can have a good idea of what im talking about

I would say Reddit has moreover killed forums... even more so than Facebook has.
