What can we do to improve your experience of our forums?

[Dumbledore]

There're so many types of communities today with so many different types of needs (communities of purpose vs. communities of interest vs. communities of action vs. communities of circumstance). Old school forums work nicely for communities of interest. I firmly believe online communities (like ourselves) are the future.
 

What are forums and how do they work?

An Internet forum is a discussion area on a website. Website members can post discussions and read and respond to posts by other forum members. A forum can be focused on nearly any subject and a sense of an online community, or virtual community, tends to develop among forum members.This type of forum may also be called a message board, discussion group, bulletin board, or web forum.
A forum usually allows all members to make posts and start new topics. The separate conversations in a forum are called threads, and they are made up of member-written posts. Members can usually edit their own posts, start new topics, post in their choice of threads, and edit their profile. A profile usually lists optional information about each forum member, such as the city they are located in and their interests.

 

We believe this sort of community with a message board is far superior to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Your posts will never be lost, and everyone can join in our conversations.

 

But what can we improve?
We are also looking for ideas and feedback on how to make things even better! What would you like to see and do here? Tell us, so that we can continue to bring our community closer together!
