So slowly we have seen a great amount of diverse content dry up which snow balled into what we find today - where none of that content and none of those users primarily focused on that kind of content post here anymore. Instead they post on Facebook and all that we have left are the universals of politics, conspiracy theories and occasionally some doctrinal debate.

I'll give you a good reason for the decline of AFF
A certain poster was allowed to run wild a few years ago and ran off all of the good discussion on the board.
So, a new discussion board was set up to allow those that left to have a refuge.
Then (as usually happens) the poster went so out of control that a ban was enacted.
But, it was like "shutting the barn door after the cows had all escaped".
You "old-timers" will know what I mean.
