    I don't think I was ever nasty towards sedevacantism.



    I wouldn't say I've been nasty about sedevacantism.  Only stridently, objectively, and vocally opposed to it.  


    Do you believe that it would be possible for the Church to survive a period of sedevacantism?  If not, why not?

    You have not been objective.


    You're right.  I have not been objective.  I've been objectively opposed.

    OHCA, I answer you back at this thread, since I only want to keep any discussions of sedevacantism at the Crisis subforum.  

    http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php?a=topic&t=27397&min=220

    Remember, this thread is about "the possiblity of FE Closing, and JayneK's potential of becoming a moderator there."

    I be checking in later.

    I noticed something very interesting.

    Here is a link to the stats (pageviews, new posts, new topics, new members, etc. on a monthly basis):

    http://catholicforum.fisheaters.com/index.php?action=stats

    What I'm really paying attention to is the column of new posts.  You'll see that beginning in May of 2009, going all the way to March of 2013, FE was getting more than ten thousand (and averaging, at a cursory glance, probably fifteen thousand) new posts per month.  There is one anomaly in that stretch of March 2012, though I think that can be explained easily by Lent.  

    After March of 2013, there is a marked decline (spanning seven months, until now) in new posts.  Definitely not an anomaly, but a clear trend.  What happened in March of 2013?  Well, I know that's when I was banned.  But that's when Francis was elected.  Is that also when Impy "came out?"  In any event, when April 2013 rolled around, FE was on a clear down trend and has continued thus.

    Now, the actual page views have not suffered, though I think that can easily be owed to FE being discussed here often over the last six months.


    It says they've had 349 users on "today" -- does that count guests? Right now, FE has 290 guests and 22 users online.

    The number of members that have logged in within a 24-hour period is probably the best metric for the activity level of a forum.

    For example, CathInfo usually has around 180+ members online within a 24-hour period.  (I have a script that tells me this, complete with a list of which members!) It's hard to count or even consider "guests", since they could be anything from a search engine to a bot in China.

  • I'm sure the decrease in FE activity has meant the increase of other forums activity.   :cheers:

  • For a while now, I've suspected Vox has some sort of fascination with the occult along with an unhealthy leaning toward the mixture of Catholicism and paganism.

    I see she is now using Black Elk as her avatar. He was a native American that continued to perform pagan rituals even after his conversion to Catholicism.

    This thread is telling..

    I've noticed a huge number of threads started by Vox herself.  That can't be a good sign (for FE).

  • She posts these controversial topics on the FE facebook page too. Like, she asked everyone to watch this 20/20 video about this person with make brain and female DNA. She asked the FE FB members to post whether or not this is a male or female. She is trying so very hard to get all trads on her homo loving, pseudo science side. Not one person replied or gave the topic s thumbs up.
