Changing Voltage Gaming into..

[XcapeX]

Opinions on me changing Voltage Gaming into an overall gaming forum rather than just PC Gaming?

I think it's a good move. If you prefer it to be based around PC Gaming you can still go with that just also incorporate a console area and whatever else.

A suggestion overall is actually more gaming areas, which includes that. It's a bit odd you having more off topic areas than gaming.

Hmm. Anyone else?

How would it be different from all the other general gaming forums out there?

Categories being different and such.

Depends how solid your user base is now. If it's plenty popular, branching out is good. If it's only so-so or you're doing it to attract more users and you have little, I'd say no.

NO DON'T DO IT! There aren't any PC gaming forums anymore, do not let them become extinct!

I think you should stick to having a niche forum mate as you seem to be doing ok. However if you want to branch out then I’d highly recommend you bring on board someone who’s interested in operating a gaming community so they can take on the burden of such an expansion. This way there’s no danger of neglecting the old crowd (your current user base) whilst your new friend is pleasing the new crowd (the one you want to attract).

Stick to what you have but add extra tabs for the console side.

That is the best way on hitting it right.

Thanks

You'll alienate your current user base as a lot of PC gamers don't like to associate with console gamers. It's like having a wine connoisseur forum and branching out to the college drinking community
