out of all these dw splinter groups, how come no one has come up with the title of 'The Lost and the Banned?'
It practically writes itself.

Hi vikazzda! When it comes to forums, its gonna be tough to compete with a giant like doomworld on the topic of id software and related games. Even this place has sort of an identity crisis too. Its tough to think of what any forum for doomers can do that doomworld couldn't do better at the moment. Not trying to put down your forum or anything, but I imagine you started it because you're not finding enough discussion about these games. I think it has to more to do with the lack of interest in talking directly about these specific games than there not being a place for it. Just about any topic you could post there would get way more attention on doomworld. When this forum was first developing, I had to say something about all the subforums that were popping up because it made the navigation of this forum more complicated and spread this small community out pretty thin. It's a cool forum otherwise. I'm not concerned about 'stealing' each others members. If people like your forum, that doesn't necessarily mean they're going to stop going to others. So thanks for sharing it

Too ambitious I'm afraid. This place is struggling to survive as it is. Too many sub-boards on your forum just makes the place look cluttered and dead. There isn't enough interest left in these old games to build entirely new forum communities from scratch. What remains is kept contained to Doomworld and ZDoom. Or other established forums on the net, for those other games you listed.
It sucks, but that's just the way it is.
