What's going on in this discussion board? Why is everyone so quiet? No one care about foot fetish anymore? I would think people here would like to share their recent experiences or fantasies or whatever. However, it seems like a whole week would pass by and there would be very little to no movement in the foot fetish talk.
I did mention this before, but I have also noticed Webmasters almost never update their foot websites anymore. That makes it very hard for people to want to join and have a membership when there are so few updates. It makes more sense to just have a one month membership to a site you like and just spend the entire month downloading everything on that site and then cancel your membership afterwards.
Do girls even work hard to sell their feet nowadays?

This forum, along with most forums, has been dying or dead for a long time. Some of us have tried to be more engaging but times have changed. Far too many people go on sites like Reddit, X, etc to get their fill of fetish content and discussions. I miss the old days when people engaged on here super frequently. Sadly, it seems those days have come and gone.

What has happened it what happened to most early forums. Time and change. You have Reddit,Only Fans,Instagram,X etc etc.. And then you have folks like me who are now up in age and simply aren't as active on here as they used to be.. The last time that I was really active was on FetLife..
Basically the amateur heyday was 20 to 30 years ago when there was Yahoo Groups and other forums like Great Feet,Shoe Session,FeetCore,Tumblr and so on..

Well, maybe we foot guys can bring this site back to life. There are tons of people who love feet. How is everyone getting their fill of feet besides wife and girlfriend? I managed to just get a new foot girl off Craigslist. Now I have 2 foot girls. It's always good to have more than one just in case one of them decides to quit doing foot worship sessions.

As others have said, social media such as Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, etc. have supplanted the old message boards. Most younger people will engage and socialize on those sites instead, leaving these forums--relics of the late 90's to early 2010's--to slowly wither as its userbase ages and eventually moves on.
Reddit's Foot Fetish Talks subreddit seems to be where a lot of people go to socialize about feet these days.

I have a theory as to why it is SOOOO quiet. The extensive history of photos of the past is not available. The old pictures from 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014 are not able to be accessed and viewed any more. There are thousands of amazing pictures that are locked away.
Can these be recovered and re-shared?

And yeah, going by the later posts there, I'm guessing all the pics after 3/26/2014 were taken down for legal reasons and are very unlikely to be reuploaded. So unless someone archived these pages in advance, they're very likely gone forever. Also doesn't help that many of their original webpages are also offline, too.

The (legitimate, but definitely not supportive of the content creators' efforts) practice of "pillaging" a website's content through one-month subscriptions every 1-2-3-X years is not related to the frequency of updates. I have always had plenty of "pillagers" even back in the good old days when I used to update the site with 2-3 sets a week and a video every 2 weeks. Personally I have drastically reduced the frequency of updates to Barefoot Urban Girls, as well as my activity on this forum and on the "foot fetish web spaces" in general, due to a combination of several factors: decline of consumers' interest for "old style" paysites, limited leisure time, deteriorating health conditions, etc. etc. I still intervene in the discussions on the "state of the foot fetish nation" because I find them interesting.. but I have never been the type of dude who offers advice on "where to find feet to lick", or who provides enthusiastic feedback when hubbies post pics of their wifeys' bare feet
