Your first point is why I asked my question. We were invited to a forum with no information as to why or what we would find there.

Hi Katy.

Congrats on setting up the forum, however My problem is, what exactly is this forum for?

A discussion forum needs to be about a specific matter to encourage people to use it, to discuss things that can't be done elsewhere, simply saying "here is a forum" doesn't really tell people very much or give an indication of why people should visit. It's a bit like saying "here is an empty room with a table and some chairs, come and have a conversation"

Also, I'm afraid the only topic I saw there other than a welcome topic was "paladin of the sky" Now, there ist' anything wrong with that, but given we already have one mailing list and one extremely large forum on audiogames.net for game discussion, why do people need another forum about games?

I'm sorry if this comes across as negative, I'm not saying this to be unfare, just that unfortunately I've seen people try this before and it's always had the same result for the same reason, either the person just replicates something we already have so nobody wants to visit, or the person doesn't particularly have an idea of what the forum is for anyway.

I'd suggest myself you have a think on a subject that a discussion forum could exist for which we don't! already have filled in the community and then considder structuring a forum around that, rather than just having a generalized discussion forum with no real impetus to visit or trying to create yet another games forum.

As I said, I'm not trying to be deliberately negative here, just pointing out that saying "here is a forum" really doesn't offer much.

All the best,

Dark.
