A thread covering the latest news on trends, groundbreaking technologies, and digital innovations reshaping the tech landscape.
I am opportuned to be part a wonderful forum like Reddit and, Quora. Of course, they are all social networking web sites with millions of members and the good is that It has many categories.
It's a Serbian forum with 335.935 registered members, 46.032.310 posts and 736.709 threads. It used to be cool place until the post quality went really down by various trolls. For instance, you want to make a topic about love in relationship, and some horny people join in and ruin the emotional part of relationship by talking about hardcore sex.
Wow, that's a massive forum! This is rather unfortunate because real posts have been diluted with different kind of things. When the flow of meaningful conversations is disrupted, by either bad comments or comments that are irrelevant, then people feel irritated.
Yeah, more people you have, more trols you gonna get. And moderation is kinda inclined to like some of the trolls so it makes it even more frustrating. And admins kinda try to resolve this by making you soft. Lots of people (good quality people) left the forum, including me. Used to be moderator there, it's a hell. And I was for IT. Can't imagine people on politics. There is a flame war going on. Probably 1000+ posts per day. How can you moderate that shit?
There are so many of them like ;

It's probably a forum I registered on long ago, such as Sitepoint or Digital Point.
Those are both good and reliable platforms in the context of web development and online marketing. That reminds me of when I registered on similar forum a long time ago. it was packed with mind-blowing threads.
Reddit, which has over 500 million users. I have been an active member there since 2021
I would have to go with Digital Point now.
I was a part of a larger forum before, but they trimmed their members to only active ones, and those that have posted content, deleting more than 3/4ths of the members.
Big doesn't necessarily mean it's better. As for the mentioned forum trimming users, they cut down nearly 750,000 users that were just spam accounts that were just adding to statistics that don't mean a thing when none of them post.
I've often tossed the idea around to remove the "member count" from the forum statistics because I don't feel you are a member unless you have at least 1 post. The most important statistics, in my mind, are threads and messages, and more importantly at times and depending on the forum type, the ratio between the two.

I agree. It can give the impression that there are many members in a forum, whereas 3/4 of them have not posted since joining or, as you have said, they have only posted once or have dropped in the leave a link. I tend to delete those ones because they are spam, Imo.
It can also hurt newer forums though.
Like if I were to trim here, there would be 132 members. Guests may or may not want to join a forum with such few members.
It works well for those over 10,000 to trim to 2500-5000, if they're still active, but not so much when you're in the hundreds.
Definitely a negative side... would not normally join a small forum but if I am invited by a friend, I will come...
The Biggest forum i have been a part of was Wrestling Figs. it is still active to this day but not like it once was.
That's the hardest part to overcome for most forum owners.
Did the forum move to another service, like Discord or Facebook Groups, or did it just fall off?
No its still on the same link that it was on 20 Years ago. i created my forum through that niche and i am finally doing the job i needed to do. Also its owned by Ringside Collectibles if you ever heard of them.
Can't say that I have, but I'll look into it!
They are a company that makes Wrestling Figures and Accessories.
Looks like at one time it was a pretty active forum.
I hope that you can fill that void!
They still have a ton of members that log in daily but a lot of forums are really dead and they dont have interest in reviving which is sad but yeah mines has about 20-30 active mmebers daily so i am doing good.
The biggest forum in my country is called Nairaland. It is a melting point for all young people in the country. That's coincidentally the biggest forum that I have been on.
clearly 4chan, I don't think it is registered in another forum larger than 4chan, you could say it is the father of forums, right?
