Aladuf just kind of grew tired I would imagine, and really this forum just didn't keep pace with him.
I mean on a personal level, I'm not really sure why I care for this forum, but I do or wouldn't be so active here. I also try different ways to recruit people, some of it works, some of it falls on its face, what can you do?
I do think that we have a problem with open discussion/dialog here though. I mean often we have threads where people just kind of post independently of the discussion around the thread, which is fine, but it doesn't usually foster much further discussion. Not that everything here needs to turn into an argument or a debate, you can have discussions that are more grounded.
As for standing out, we really can't do anything to stand out, video game websites are a dime a dozen these days, and that's why the main page never took off, I'd like to try the whole alternate reporting that I suggested in the other thread, but again we need members who are willing to do the work.
I think what we need to do, to stand-out, is really just make this the best place we can as current members. Make new people feel welcomed without smothering them. We can hope to keep the members that we do have now happy, and maybe find a handful of people to enter our little community.
We could be wary of others attitudes, not everyone is big on cursing and stuff, so maybe label threads if has foul language, I don't know.
