I mean if you're expecting the forum discussions here to provide enough material to fill your day, you're going to be disappointed. And you've expressed disappointment numerous times. You've already been pretty successful at boosting discussion. I'm sorry if BEA's traffic level isn't what you hoped for, but it's not going to change overnight.

I know that. Tht's why I specified tht the rise in "traffic" is starting to bloom. It's not like I'm saying anyone's lazy about it.

EDIT: I changed the OP to something less pretentious, if that was the problem.

I haven't gotten people posting as much as I like. I must've started a dozen topics since I joined BEA last week. It's deader than Mozart out here. I'm really hoping a classical thread does the trick.

As if I've posted enough topics this week. I see the fruits of my labor finally blooming into a fair amount of bustle, but it's not as strong of a bustle as I'm aiming for.

The forums are finally more active after a while. It's been pretty dead here since I got here, but it looks like things are picking up. I've been trying hard to raise a good discussion but I don't have the biggest grip on what interests people on BEA. I think something that everyone can share some familiarity with makes for a good topic if you care to explore it. Adding to that, I decided to make this thread bevause I'm going through the 8 original releases that make up Karajan's "9 Symphonien." Most of the discs don't appear to be on BEA, so since I've heard 8 early-60's albums thinking they were one which was really a comp, I think it would be good to go over them again. I usually like classical in smaller doses.

By the way, my favorite full recording is Karajan's Requiem from 1987.
