I've been a member of this website for a long time now, and ever since I first joined the Microsoft forums have either been mostly abandoned or slow.  Also in terms of members MS has always been a big minority here.

Why?  Will the fanbase ever grow?  Im just honestly curious why the Xbox has always been so small here and if you guys think it will ever really take off, and if not why exactly that is.

Prediction: Yes.

I think there's plenty of us here now, we're just too busy owning noobs over XBL to bother posting on forums very often =)

Unless a massive burst of Xbox fans signs up: No

i am also wondering why there are more sony fans than MS fans on this site eventhough it is a American site?

No. Their is way too many sony fans on this site for that to happen. new comers come in and then get raided by sony fans. That either turns them off or results in them getting banned.

It's a UK site. The majority of the traffic comes from the US though

The 360 didn't have an internet browser for much of its life, rendering Xbox gamers ncapable of accessing the website. This seems the most plausible explanation.

It seems that the Xbox population takes one step forward and two steps back.

There seem to be enough as far as I can tell.
