As I used to be a farmer, I still frequent some of the farming forums.
There used to be British Farming Forum (BFF) the owners/moderators were, shall we say, unwilling to listen to criticism about most things.
Then one day, BFF was hacked big-time and then, suspiciously, on that exact day another forum started up called The Farming Forum (TFF) which was run by two (?) proactive and positive guys.
By the time BFF came back on line, the battle was lost. I guess it was about 5/6 years ago now and TFF is buzzing whereas BFF has one or two posts a week.
Don't suppose that will happen here as the MSE name is too big, but .... if only ..... 🤔

    Lots of big name sites disappear if they don't listen to their users. Friends reunited has to be the biggest example. It was sold for millions at one time and now gone.
