There don't seem to be too many posts in there yet. :P Well, it's better than getting flooded with spam. Good luck though, I hope you get a lot of members quickly. :) Trend, ef? The only one I saw doing that before was dear FB :P . I hope that's not a bad omen concerning the future of Brenitt's board. ;) [ Thursday, June 26, 2003 11:51: Message edited by: Arancaytar ] -------------------- "And all should cry, Beware, Beware!

Brenitt, if I were you, I'd visit the other two boards and then think of some interesting topic that they do not cover for my forum. -------------------- Polaris Posts: 1828 | Registered: Saturday, January 11 2003 08:00 |

It's not a new trend in any case. There were Spiderweb-related forums, mainly for BoE, before Spiderweb opened the IB, and then there was an ezboard spree that died down without fanfare. The next generation of forums came from the fight between Desperance and the newly-created Polaris more than a year ago, and Lady J eventually hosted Polaris, Phoenix (now gone), Azure Palace (gone), and others. Wise Forums probably fit into that category. —Alorael, who would say that most boards die because they don't have anything Spiderweb lacks. Desperance has its own people and ambience, Polaris has its conspiracies, and the Lyceum is THE place for BoE. Other than that, outside forums have a bad track record.

bah. Wise Forums is still there, albeit not very active. people should go there for unspoiled RPs, that's for sure. unspoiled meaning free of ... bad elements. -------------------- Urban wisdom is not actual wisdom.

Yeah, it's just against Drakey's juicy CoC, but I hope they allow it this time. It's only a discussion board, after all, not a rival company. -------------------- - WITH LOVE, THE OL' RELIABLE BOYLOVE, TO BE EXACT Posts: 761 | Registered: Thursday, June 19 2003 07:00 |

Well, not perhaps a rival, but yet another company, and they would probably advertise THEIR company on SPIDERWEB's boards. That is a crime against the CoC as we have seen in this topic. -------------------- - WITH LOVE, THE OL' RELIABLE BOYLOVE, TO BE EXACT Posts: 761 | Registered: Thursday, June 19 2003 07:00 |

Really, the only successful boards relating to Spidweb are (in order of appearance): 1) The Arena - massive RP/competition based on Exile that began years before these boards. 2) The Lyceum - the premier Blades of Exile board. 3) Spidweb - the company's own boards are bound to thrive. 4) Desperance - an alternative created by an already established community. It's difficult to cultivate any new forum without a community already, which is why so many boards start and then die or fall to the spamming of two or three members. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Vahnatai Did Do It desperance.net - We're Everywhere The Arena - God Will Sort The Dead ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

BTW: Is it just me, or does the Lyceum board seem, well, not quite dead, but on life support? I mean, the last post in there was yesterday, and I go there about weekly now because so little happens. And yeah, to have a good board, you need at least 10-20 people you know are going to join at once, before you create the board. New people will not post in a board that has barely come to life ;) . -------------------- "And all should cry, Beware, Beware! His Flashing eyes, his Floating hair!" S. T.

There is always a lull on the Lyceum from February to June, but things really pick up in the summer and late fall. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Vahnatai Did Do It desperance.net - We're Everywhere The Arena - God Will Sort The Dead ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!
