Potential resurgence of BBS forums
#2
I haven't had a Facebook or Instagram account in years. I still have my Twitter account technically but don't use it or any social media, really, except for the occasional post or like on Bluesky. There are few people I can think of who would be happier to see a resurgence in forums but take it from someone who has tried for the last decade, it's just not going to happen. Current generations barely even know what they are and most others have moved on. Is it impossible? No; there are still active forums out there. But I don't think we're going to see any return to forums being the main form of communication online and we will still be archiving this one with the launch of the new site (both due to lack of activity and also because MyBB just isn't what it used to be).

To be clear, I'm not actually happy that all of our community's social activity is exclusively on Discord and would love for that to change but it is what it is. I'd consider opening a new forum on a better platform in the future should I be (happily) proven wrong and we do see a demand for it though.
