It's not done, but we've got to learn to enjoy it as it is. All forums have fallen off a decent bit, the only ones that are still strong are academic boards, general interest boards, and boards that skew older on much broader topics. The bodybuilding stuff isn't coming back. Facebook, Instagram and the ability to control content has killed that off. Also the fact that bodybuilding is so spread out among different gyms now has killed the high quality gossip we got in the mid 90's - 2010 or so. Gold's Venice, etc.... are shadows of their former selves in that regard.
Also I think this board has aged out of caring about the new Youtube generation of stars. Rich Piana was the last one we had. Does anyone really care here about V Shredz, Kinobody, etc....? I don't. Even something like Reddit bodybuilding has a hard time being interesting -

Same rehashed conversations we were doing years ago, and we did them better.
Rx Muscle is dead compared to us. MD Forums still does a lot of traffic, but look at how boring and moderated it is
