I'm just gonna go ahead and copy Red

While I see what you mean, the 10 pages certainly is too small of a number. But I think the major thing with that not being common practice here is that there aren't enough users that are constantly active that it becomes necessary. It's usually the same dudes posting, so they're always caught up.
But you could always jump in near the end and discuss w/e. Especially now, really, since many of those topics don't get much activity. Jumping in and starting a new conversation (or even revisiting an old one) would be fair game.
EDIT: Actually now that I think about it, 10 pages isn't as short as I thought it was.
-Too many general threads, "Final Fantasy (and any other RPGs) Topic" and "The Last Airbender / The Legend of Korra" are too general, which requires quite a bit of reading to do before actually posting in the topic and knowing what everyone is currently talking about. I have interests in both areas, but never wanted to to post in them because of the scope, size and unknown tone.
Again, understood, but again, just go right in and post, since nobody else is
I'm sure you could probably go ahead and start other, more specific titles, or go ahead and reboot them yourself. I don't think anyone really minds, seeing as how they aren't posting anyway
-Not enough new threads per day. Are we still gonna talk about the same things, thus the long threads.
That's also due to lack of activity in general. And with such a small community, it can be somewhat difficult to find a lot of topics that several users have a common interest in.
So basically it boils down to not having a lot of active users, and then a good chunk of those users not posting much in the forums, save for a thread or two here and there.
I am pretty interested in making Version 2, Version 3 threads and whatnot. If it's not against the rules to do so and it's aight with people, I think I might start doing it (tho only the SNSD thread really seems to be appropriate for that right now, seeing as it's one of the active ones...between two people)
