Happy to see a forum again

Hey everyone, I'm Sawyer!
Wow, it's been a long time since I hung out on a forum like this. I know that this forum exists in part as a substitute for the defunct RPG Maker Forums, which I used occasionally, but way back in the day I used to spend way too long on sites like this one. I've been kinda hoping the world could return to an era of forums, perhaps it's time to be the change we wanna see in the world. I imagine there aren't many folks here yet, but it's nice to see you guys! -
Welcome y'all! Yeah hopefully this forum can serve as a less overwhelming alternative to the popular platforms, at least. The ethos is very old internet. Happy to have such talented devs around!

I've never been particularly active on forums (bar one example) but that is a change I'm trying to make. Hopefully this can be one of the places I integrate into my efforts

Honestly I think the fact that we're here at the start when there are only like 20 guys will help a bit, since activity will be slow to begin with rather than a constant barrage of activity. I think as time as the forum grows we'll be able to slowly adapt and keep up with the new posts as they come in!

@sawyerfriend One of the hardest parts about integrating into a forum (or any social platform really) is finding the threads where I actually feel like I have something to say, and I'm not just forcing myself to speak artificially. I think a smaller size will definitely help with that.

Oh yeah, I'm 100% the same way. I'm also thinking it'll help if I contribute a bit as well, honestly the old forums were so big and fast that I assumed anything I had to say had probably already been said before, but here I know whatever posts I make will be fresh, so I'm going to try to share some of the tips I've accumulated over the years.
