DUMBEST THREADS ON JV 💀

[Different]

I would say that these threads in particular aren't to blame but really a couple of other things, one being the lack of new threads but you do assist with activity in that regard which is good, another is just the general decline of forums over the years as a lot more stuff has moved to places like Discord.

Yeah it seems like people don't care to post like they used to anymore, which is quite strange. I recognized this ahead of time, so I figured I'd give people something to brag about because JV is dying. The thing about discord is that I can't post threads there, like I can on JV.

The lessening popularity of Jiggmin games, especially the Platform Racing series, also contributed to this as even the original JV was on decline before its abrupt end back in mid-2015 if I recall. The death of flash on major browsers was effectively the final nail in the coffin for this.

100% agreeing on this. Also, I believe the original JV began to decline in late 2014, same with PR2. Jiggmin should have had a handy backup at the time, instead of allowing it to decline for such a long time.

If there were to be either a port of PR2 on Steam or a new Platform Racing game on there it could increase activity but there are problems for each. A port of PR2 on Steam would likely require all of the original songs to be either changed or have rights obtained as at least some of them have been found to be unauthorised rips from Newgrounds or other such places. In terms of a new Platform Racing game, I feel that Jiggmin wants to move on and pretty much has by now since he's got other more important things to deal with so it'd have to be made by someone else in the community with the permission of Jiggmin.

Yeah, people have been discussing ideas for PR4 for ages, now. If they were notified on discord that someone new were to takeover and that person created the game, then people would start to migrate to JV. I'm sure one day, Ben will contact Jiggmin, once he's out of school one day, and has spare time to take on such a high-demanding job.
