Lack of revenue is the main reason why many websites have stopped paying or are merged to other forums or have reduced the pay rates or are taking a break from PTP

That's so right there are many reasons why a forum is dying and you're correct insufficient revenues, thus cannot pay the users. We really cannot predict the future of a forum site.

Yea, I think I agree with you, inflation could also be a contributing factor as to to why some forums are gradually dieing off, and also the inability to generate revenue for sustaining the platform
Yup many forums are struggling to pay members because they also need money for themselves sadly more and more paid to post forums stop paying or closes down

Forums need to earn more revenue in order to survive and I have learned about different websites that even paid $200 or more to its users and they are not active now because they were unable to earn that much revenue

That's the problem now because the hot issue this year is the fate of the forum sites. Many shut off. It's not also good to blame them. Their burden is so heavy paying people.

There are forums dead already like Post Bucks and others dying like Trendri and others unknown to us. There are writing sites that were closed how much more to a forum that relies on revenues?
Yup a lot of paid to post forums closed down because of the revenue I'm not really sure why a lot of paid to post forums decided to not pay at the same time maybe it's because of inflation

The forum site owners must also be innovative and creative in such a way more ads to get invested and they just come in and do business with the forum site owner. It's stabilising a forum plus with quality posts.

It's not easy for any website or pay to post forums to earn the required revenue and they need to find ways to earn more revenue as only that can stable the website.

It might be hard for the forum owner to generate traffic to a forum site especially if the posts are not of good quality, many spammers, and topics too , disinteresting. I am just saying.

Its not easy to manage a forum and needs cost as you need to control the website and its activities so if you cannot then you need to hire more people and need to pay all too
