I don't know much about those. Are they like plugins for the forum software or something?Virtually_Char wrote: Sat Jun 13, 2026 9:40 pm Also how do we feel about forum games? They're really silly but I have some fond memories of them.

Re: Okay Actual Practical Info About Forum Stuff
Nah I was just thinking of how most forums I frequented back in the day had a section dedicated to whatever dumb thread based word games people could think of.Kiri Artemis wrote: Sat Jun 13, 2026 11:01 pmI don't know much about those.

Some examples include "grant the wish above you but ruin it" and you'd have to come up with your own monkeys paw situation for the above post then ask for your own wish at the end for the next person.
Or sometimes it'd be something as dumb as just counting. Literally someone starts with 1 and the next person just posts 2, then so on xD
Or word association games, would you rather, etc. etc.
I am sure there were more interesting examples but my memory is bad lol

Re: Okay Actual Practical Info About Forum Stuff
For the subforums I think these could be useful:
- Games (for traditional/tabletop, computer games, etc)
- Tech (for general technology, programming, hardware, software, SnekStudio, etc topics)
- a subforum for Movies/Music/Books/Anime/Manga/etc
- maybe one for hobbies in general?
- Something for memes/media sharing/forum games/misc topics?
