Hello one and all.

Now that the domestic season is over and we're all waiting for the Four Nations, this is the perfect time to ask this question.

We've had a few comments from posters here that the forum is getting a little quiet.

But it seems that the best thing to do is open up the question and ask all of you what you like about this place – what keeps you coming back! – and what you think could be better and how.

Im really looking forward to your ideas – hope you're having a good Friday evening and that we hear from as many as possible of you soon!

Hello! I do think this forum needs a bit of 'rejuvenation' - there are tons of Cas fans on this entire forum but none seem to congregate here, no idea why. I'm one of them at times. Would be nice if that changed though.

It was ruined by trolls from other clubs coming on. Most are OK but a few ruined it and it put people off. The fact we also have our own designated forum at Casforum made a huge difference and easier to chat.

There is a lack of interest from admins/mods so I would suggest starting at the top with people that are enthusiastic may be a good place to start.

However, there's also a general trend that internet forums are dying. Social media has made it easier to discuss and source news.

I do tend to agree with most of that, however I think the chat between fans used to be quite entertaining! Trolls are everywhere, even on Casforum. Mods are the first place to start though.

Giving someone mod status is hardly going to make the board more lively though is it?
This forum is a dying one just like other clubs that have their own external forum.
Widnes being another good example dead on here thriving own external forum.

Pull the plug on it for me. I only tend to use the VT these days and occasional other teams forums. CasForum is the place for Tigers supporters.
