We’re starting to go round in circles here.

If we need to get the message through to Alcar then how do we best do that. How about we start a thread to act as a petition asking him to get more admins on board, and then everyone who agrees with this can post to the thread to indicate their support.

Mods – as Nate and Xavier have said they’re willing to get tougher, as long as we the users actually start reporting shitposts. So let’s not worry about recruiting new mods for now until we need more hands on board.

We have technical things to consider like what forum software to upgrade to, how/would we transfer over the old database (I’m sure a lot of forum software has vBulletin compatibility in some way), how would we replace/port the old blogs, what new features to add. Can we get users who would be interested in helping put this all together to start discussing options? And can we upgrade/better integrate Oddchat into all this?

Then there’s the finance. If we’re paying for new forum software, or if someone else is going to take over the hosting, how do we finance that?

And what do we do to address the lack of discussion and content? I would suggest that everyone starts at least thinking about some threads to post, even just smaller threads that they might not normally bother with. Have you seen discussions on other forums/on social media that you want to bring here? And what kind of fun stuff do you want to get up to with the other members here? We have a Steam group and most of us share some multiplayer games, how about things like game challenges (post your best time bountying Lefty Lugnutz or whatever)?


e: Here’s an open question for everyone. In an ideal situation what would you like OWF to be like?
