Only in the Community Natter section. 🙂
They used to tell us on the home page how many people were logged in and how many were using the forum not logged in, but for some reason that was stopped.😐

Just seen a response! Guess not alone on the planet?
Is anybody on this community ? It is very quiet and any replies are annual ?
Plenty of topics on the 'Email' forum at the moment

as VM initiates a mailbox deletion project
Not as prolific as I used to be; due to changes beyond my control.
Never see any recent posts about anything, has the community lost interest in VM ??
It has only become quieter IMO since you asked the same question a year ago.

The fact that the current forum software is total garbage has not helped either (or has partly caused the decline)
Edit: 2025 topic now merged into 2024 topic
Maybe posts are going missing because of bad language like how bad the hub is or the hub 5x without modem mode support.
A lot of people posting seem to think that the board is a direct way to get faults fixed and non fault work scheduled like a move of their cables instead of calling customer services.
I still see a large number of email ‘problems’ that I do not comment on as I have never ever used the VM mail system in all the years I’ve been a customer.
The number of post does not, to me, seem to be decreasing. I only ever click on the VM logo at the top of the screen to read all new posts. I very rarely go directly to a specific section.
"A lot of people posting seem to think that the board is a direct way to get faults fixed and non fault work scheduled like a move of their cables instead of calling customer services."
Or, no, maybe a lot of people simply understand that VM’s customer services provision is completely broken, how often do we see posts claiming that they simply can’t understand the agent or that they simply do not understand the issue because it doesn’t exist on the decision tree on the screen in front of them? So maybe they post on here in a desperate attempt to get their issues resolved. Maybe see all the ’Netflix activation posts’, where, apparently talking to customer services is a useful as a tissue-paper condom; but, mysteriously, posting on here and getting a forum team member involved, sometimes solves the problem
Even you have to concede that the VM ‘agents’ have little or no understanding of what they are supporting, do they? They simply follow what the screen in front of them tells them, no?
