I remember trying to logon to the old site and like it must be down for maintance a year ago and one of the rare times I jumped on discord (thanks China) and was told to come here. This place has some of the greatest people helping out around here and I just did a google search myself and the fourm is number 4! (.com, wiki, gethub of qb64, us) Searching and clicking through must have helped maybe we can get to the top with everyone else since those others are not as awesome as us.
Hell, I just turned 40 this year, I still introduce basic to my students when they are curious and tell them to sign up here to get help if they want. I just think basic is a much easier language to start with than the others and with the experinced hands leading the way, the language is as powerful it needs to be do pretty much anything. Graphics, music, controller input, and more just built in without anything else!
Just because it isn't the newest hotness, doesn't mean people don't like it. I think mnrvovrfc and BPlus said it right! Long live QB64PE and thank you Steve for everything you do for the community! I can only add my voice to the chorus. About word of mouth, did anyone check out the about page of the program I am working on? That's right, there is credit to QB64PE and our forum site address in that bad boy. Trust me, other teachers are using it and eagerly waiting my next update as well (thanks for everyones help with that too!) and seeing me work on it using Dark Side. Trust me, that alone gets people asking, what is that, how can I get it, and is it hard to learn?
