Link: https://grey-zone.proboards.com/
Name of Site: Grey Zone Forum
Description: A site where people can debate on an ambiguously heroic/villainous character's (such as Severus Snape, Mrs. Puff, and Jorgen Von Strangle) status as a hero or villain. Also contains a space where people can talk about their thoughts on ambiguously heroic/villainous character types (such as well-intentioned extremists) and even about grey zone itself, such as what makes characters grey zoned.

A very interesting topic for a forum, most definitely. I wish you all the best with it!

Nice to see another Proboards forum here! I wish you the best of luck. It'd be helpful if you could post on your forum what it is about. Somebody stopping by won't know until they start reading through some posts & even then, it's not clear. The description you have here on FP can be in an About Us board on Grey-Zone.

That would be a good thing to add so that people know what the Grey Zone Forum is about specifically so that they know what to post in the forum. I just added the About Us Board and a Description Thread right now!

Cool! That will help a lot!

I signed up today but was hoping for more things on the site. Maybe add more topics so people can respond?

I've added some more topics via threads, and I will continue adding some threads on the board. Plus, if you have your own topic about grey zone (such as a certain character that you want to debate, discussion about a specific type of grey zone character, or even just general grey zone discussions), you can make your own threads about that. I don't want people to feel limited to only the topics that I bring up, as there are countless more topics out there. So, should I mention that if people have their own topic to add, then they should feel 100% free to make a thread about it?

It's just nice to have a flow already going in a forum and then others can jump in too with the same line of thought. When a forum is really empty people aren't motivated to start new threads if they aren't sure which direction to take things which is why example is a good way to start.

 

[Flowman]

You are right. I have added some more topics to discuss, bringing the totals to:
3 forum meta topics
11 grey zone topics
6 character status topics.

And now there are:
4 forum meta topics
16 grey zone topics
7 character topics.

And I do appreciate the criticism, it helps make the forum better.

This is a very unique niche. Never seen anything like that. I've signed up and made a couple posts. I'd recommend having some sort of off-topic forum so that there's more conversations for people like me to partake in. It's hard (for me personally) to just jump in and respond to most of the topics I see. I'd also recommend doing more when it comes to customizing your ProBoards style and such. Maybe find a nice premade style and use it?

 

[Flowman]

I added an off-topic board, along with some threads in it. I also added a premade style and made it the default style.
