This place closed and I was fine with it. Things had died down anyhoo and now you are reviving it? Is there a real push to get this place back now or the same old waiting game? I don't watch as many horror movies these days so not sure how much I can contribute. Doubt I will be around much but I will drop in to say hi. Plus, to PM Kash and see how that lil honey is doing lately.
Hi.

Wassup, poodles.
Hi Dad, you've missed my last 3 birthdays.
I wouldn't say I've "missed" them.
Hold on a second. How do we know this is the real De? There is only one way to find out.
DeraiLer... if that is your real name. How many dudes do you bang on a regular basis?
Just your mom.
Way to subvert expectations on your posts.
Wait a second... that's proof enough you're not De.
Who are you?

Indeed. As to why bring you back? Well, even if this place doesn't reach the activity it once had, we can at least have a place to bullshit with the rest of the crew on a semi regular basis.

Clearly it's FagraiLer, finally jumping at the chance to steal De's screen name.

Pew pew pew.
Ah, haven't seen Shadows wife in awhile around here. WB Drumr.
You'd be the reason behind that.
Makes sense. People return because of me.

That can't be right.

And by charm I mean odor.
Well, when you eat sausage covered chocolate chip pancakes every day, your odor is bound to take a hit. [*hehehmm*]

I think a lot of people watch less horror these days, too much quantity, not enough quality.
As for the 'waiting game', not sure exactly which part you are referring to. I wrote tons of code for a new site back in 2010 and 2011 but my host changed the php software rendering a lot of my work useless at the time. I was in a shit job too throughout 2010 and 2011, which had me working non-stop (not joking, almost literal) and I ended up getting really depressed about it because I could never turn it off in my personal time. I got rid of that job eventually and now I'm in the best job I could ever imagine having (aside from being Orgazmo). Now that I have my mojo back, I am psyched to get back into creating the website.
And we appreciate it so much, Chuck! Thanks for doing this!
Also, where's the kissing smiley? Wanted to use this one here. [*happy*]

So why get this place back up again? Sure it's nice seeing all the guys again but none of us are horror fanatics these days. Are you gonna give this place the push it needs to get on the map?
I'll play the Devil's advocate and say that there's a lot of truth in that statement.
FE has always been fun, and while we welcome new members, we're sort of a clique that got too comfortable.
We have people who write well and can do good reviews. It might even be worth it to seek out Rough Cut again.
I can do the Slashers again.
RumbleWolf goes to tons of events and takes shit loads of pictures. He can do i-mockery style articles.
What I mean is, even though some of us, myself included, aren't really horror nuts, we have people who can potentially put us on the map. And we should take a shot at it.
It definitely switched to an elite group of friends than a horror site for all comers. So unless there is a game plan somewhere, I don't see the place moving back into horror site greatness and simply being a nice little spot for friends to chat.
Bringing the Fights back up should be a focal point. It's a gimmick, and it's a cheap one, but the novelty can and probably will attract people. Then, we need to get them hooked with good content.
FE Radio could have been something that "put FE on the map." but I think towards the end of the run of both the original forum and of the show is when Shadow, De, and myself realized that we weren't into horror as much as we had been when the show initially started. As for bringing that back and maybe making it more accessible to people that aren't familiar with the site, that's likely not in the cards. Though, De, Shadow, and I have kicked around a few ideas similar to the show.
In the end, I really don't give a shit if this place has 1 member or 1000 members. It's something I hold near and dear to my heart because of all the awesome people I met here. I'm just still ecstatic about the place being up and having an easier way of keeping contact with the lot of you.

Same.
This place can and probably will go back on life support like the last board did in those last few years. I don't care, it's good to just have it back. When I heard this place was up and running again I may have squealed a little. [*uhoh*]
I've been gently pushing all of the horror friends I've made over the past few years to check this place out, though none of them have yet. I think if we can really get into full swing, FE can go back to being a small town equivalent of the bigger horror forums. Part of that is going to depend on what we do as far as reviews, articles, etc. We have inside jokes, but I don't think they're so rampant on the board that it's not welcoming for newcomers at this point.

Every time I try and think of one good way to get the show up again, I can think of about 2-3 other reasons why I wouldn't work... usually revolving around there being no real outlet for us to easily access new people. That, and networking is a pain in the ass.
Make a tumblr and advertise through that. Put reviews up on it, too.
We basically need to advertise. All we have so far is a Facebook page with 121 likes. Sites like Reddit would be a good place to get us out there.
Tumblr. Like I just said. You can approach other bigger tumblrs and ask them to reblog something of yours or chuck a post up saying scope it out. It's not hard. Places like "F Yeah Creepy Shit" and the like are perfect.
You're probably right, but all I think of when it comes to Tumblr is annoying gifs.
I know nothing about Tumblr, but if we put out some good quality podcasts or the like that help attract people I know a few sites I could approach to host them.
the other thing that now the site is up and running again you might find that you start watching horror movies again.

i agree with this while the site was down i sort of lost a little of the desire to watch that i once had. Can't explain why it happened but it did.
Top that with there just not being any quality horror films being made that much any more and i went from watching a couple a day to a couple a month.
Sort of feel the desire to watch again starting to grow.

I don't think we aren't horror fans anymore, just that the genre had been getting stale. Maybe a part of that is because of the forum dispersing a while back and maybe some of that is just the way it is because of the industry. We need a revival of the genre, much like when Freddy vs Jason gave it a huge kick in the pants. I will be giving the site a push but no matter how far it goes, just to even be at this point with the forum is worth it.

You may be mostly right, but I actually still am a horror fanatic.
Nonetheless, L-Face said it best - even if we don't reach our prior prime, it really is like a second home to a lot of us.
I've been watching a lot less horror because I have less people to talk about it with. I still love horror, but I get more enjoyment out of Sci-Fi that I can share with people that horror that I keep to myself. Having this site open again is enough to reverse that.
I have been watching just as much as I always did. Maybe more now that I download.

I know what you mean... ever since FE Radio went down the amount of horror movies I've watched have dropped significantly. Granted, we were watching tons of movies per week... but still.

Totally agree shadow pretty much stopped watch horror movies because I've no one to discuss them with or get reviews from people who's taste matches up with mine, plus fe radio always gave me something to listen to wish I still had the casts I downloaded years ago
