If you shut down this site tomorrow, only about 15 or so of the members that post here on a frequent to somewhat frequent basis will miss it. While I admire your gumption and tenacity to start up a new website forum to compete with the behemoth known as trifive.com, I don't see how it makes any sense to keep it going. You have attracted virtually no big name sponsors, the daily post rate is pathetic, and like I mentioned, there is just a tiny core of active members that do 90% of the posting. At some point, you have to ask yourself, why do I keep throwing good money, valuable time and effort into this endeavor? And judging by your statement quoted above, it looks as though that thought has already crossed your mind. You know, there's a rule of thumb regarding a new startup business, and that is, if its not profitable after 3 years, "take it behind the barn, and shoot it". Remember, no one will fault you for doing the right thing.
