Why the low number of people viewing

[SGT ROC]

I have noticed the last few days a very low count of people on the site. I counted and no much over 120 or so TOTAL are viewing in any particular forum. I would have thought with a lot of people not working the count would be a lot higher. What's up?

Maybe all the shelter at home / no camping rules has deflated some people and camping is no longer top of mind?

The view counter is broken. I posted in the Forum Updates last week and one of the site team is supposed to be looking into it.

Maybe people have looked at all the forum posts they wanted to see. Since I am fairly new, I still have a lot to go!

Watch for a big boom in baby births at Christmas time. What are YOU doing with your time?!

If forum traffic is down, another part of the explanation may be that some number of the people often here are Canadians. They've been strongly advised to return home because of the pandemic and they are doing that in droves. I've seen claims that about a million Canadians have come home in recent weeks. I dunno how many of them were in trailers, let alone Grand Design trailers, but we're secretly here in greater numbers than we want you to know.

Once home and not in the trailer a lot of Canadians who have a life will be doing other things... see opening sentence for example. Note that I *am* here; draw your own conclusion.

I suppose that many others are preoccupied with the stresses this has brought, connecting with family and friends, watching all the news and advice and trying to figure out what's true/good and what's fake/bad. We live in interesting times.

It isn't - just wondering.

LOL - a couple of follow on points here
1. I am retired and have no plans for more kids - even if we could...
2. So it was going to be a take over and the pandemic saved us.....
3. AS am I... And it's raining again outside.
