I see a lot of well known and liked members were banned and whatever the reason was I dont know because its not like I can message them and find out.
Its hard to see the site on a smart phone. I use I big computer with big screen to come on this forum.
Another thing is hunter numbers I'm sure are getting lower. I dont care what experts say but there are less and less Alberta hunters every year. Expense,gun laws,regulations,lack of gun ranges and lack of places to hunt.
Im not sure but are there other rural forums in Alberta?

I know a lot of hunters and unless I met them through AO or through an AO member 99% are not on this forum. They all prefer to use facebook or instagram. I only broke down and got Facebook last fall for other purposes and yeah there is way more activity on facebook pages
It’s not a lack of hunters or interest in hunting
The fact is it is harder to share pics on AO for starters. Lack of outdoors related content leads to less content posted. Trolls that never offer any outdoor related content are another. Yup some were banned too.
A portion of my buddies have checked out AO but have no interest posting here
The forum isn’t declining do to lack of interest in hunting/fishing it’s just not attracting hunters/fishermen to post
