I won,t bite your head of for your views I can assure you. Your as entitled to your views as anyone else. I can,t help wondering why he hasn,t said anything. I appreciate fully it must be hard for him, but I honestly would have thought he would by now. No he doesn,t HAVE too, I just thought that he would have. :-\

And it's been five weeks since Heath's death, so I am not expecting any sort of "official" public statement. The time for that has passed. Why he chose not too, we'll probably never know.
I suspect at some point, in an interview, he might make some comment like, "Heath was a good friend. I miss him." But I really don't expect anything more than that.

I think the activity and interest in Jake in the BBM community will increase when "Brothers" comes out.
Outside the BBM community fans of Jake seem not to care one way or the other about whether he released a statement or not.
As for Heath's board, i think when his 2 last movies come out there'll be much activity, after that it's going to be less and less. Very sad thinking about that, but it's the truth. :(
Mikaela:
Souxi, I sent you a PM with a reply to your specific question.
Otherwise I prefer trying to keep quiet as I see that there is some considerable tension among Jake fans at present and I don't want to be caught in the middle of that, frankly. Wouldn't change my feelings anyway.

I think it makes perfect sense and is certainly appropriate that HHH has such high-interest at the moment. I'm sure you're right that traffic levels on the two threads will fluctuate and change as time moves on... new films are released, etc. It just keeps seeming important to me to try to find a way not to drive wedges between the Jake and Heath fans... in terms of the health and harmony of the Brokie community/ boards like BetterMost. The dynamics of all of this during this big moment of change and transition are fascinating to observe. And, the differences between JJJ and HHH will always be marked from now on... more so than ever in the past. I can imagine that adjusting to all of this may continue to be a bit of a rocky experience for the Brokie community for a while.
MilAn:
Well, i believe it's pretty obvious why there is more traffic on HHH at the moment. The man died just a month ago and his as well as some Jake fans want/feel the need to pay tribute to Heath. I think in a few months everything will get back to "normal" in the JJJ threads. Let's see what happens with Heath's threads after his last two films come out... i fear not much. :(
