Whenever I click on the forum, the link takes me back to the main page. Is it just me, or have they shut down all of the forums?

Topix has been useless for as long as I can remember.

Serious posts rarely get replies. I posted some nostalgia questions on my hometown board. Apparently no one one my age even saw them.

It’s just junk posts.
