Killing it softly.

**Sigh**
Yep. I will also note that the ones complaining of this, could always begin posting their own starter threads related to weapons, gun or otherwise. The news stories I have seen are always weapons related in one form or the other. One can only have so many discussions over a 30.06 sign before it has been beat to death.
:iagree:

At this point in the state of the world, I am far, far less inclined to share firearms information with people who are not:

#1. Committed to the US Constitution and Bill of Rights (which are currently under massive attack)
#2. Wholeheartedly supporting the 2nd Amendment and groups that promote it (the enemy is literally trying to SHUT DOWN the NRA and has falsely demonized the organization as well as called recruiters "extremists" and members "terrorists"... apparently supporting freedom, Bill of Rights, and gun safety is "terrorism" in Clown world)
#3. Recognizing that the all of the vast money and power of the government of the United States of America is extraordinarily valuable to bad actors and has manifestly been stolen in the most recent election... and those that have stolen the election see the American majority as a threat to their illegitimate rule.

True for the topics I will actually click on.

Unfortunately most of the time the most recent topics are all spam news from the sources you mention aggregate threads. If I wanted to see that, I’d go to those sites.

But when all the recent posting here is one dude “control c, control v” everything on Drudge, it kind of dampens my enthusiasm to wade through the junk to find the interesting stuff.
I don't completely understand your argument. Drudge has become no different than CNN, MSNBC, etc with a massive loss in readership. Nobody reads Drudge anymore. I like most people, I haven't gone to Drudgereport in at least a year.

Re: I think the forum is dying

Fresh content is key to keeping a website going. Providing content relevant to current members while also of interest to new viewers is vital.

I don't believe that restricting the most popular topics will help keep forum members. Popular topics are a sign of successful engagement. What makes this website unique and important is that it is different than CNN, MSNBC, Facebook, etc.
