Should Marie 1988 go towards Forum Administration?

[AnAccount]

As you all know, Marie 1988 is a general chat community. However, one thing I myself notice when I go on a lot of boards is, the first thing I head straight for is a forum advertisement section or anything related to Webmasters or Forum Administration. Since those two topics alone seem to be my passion more than general chat, should I turn Marie 1988 into a Webmaster or Forum Administrator community? I know that's a popular genera right there, but that also seems to be my passion as well, as when I go to advertisement forums or even general chat forums such as this, that's the first subject in the forum I head straight for. I don't even participate in the general discussion area anymore. What do you guys think? By the way, if I did go through with the change, all posts will be archived, not deleted (except for announcements and feedback, but the ones that would be archived would be perhaps the Let's Just Talk, and I may keep the entertainment section).

Also, I am attracted to sites like this one (Forum Promotion) because I love talking about various softwares, and a lot of discussions that come up concerning forum administration and different softwares I find quite interesting.

If you are going to change, you might want to change the name. I don't get what the name is to do with general chat or advertisement.

I only chose the name because Marie is my middle name, and 1988 is the year I was born. It was the only unique name I could come up with at the time. What name do you think I should change it to?

Well if you did change the forum then I do agree with changing the name. But to get ideas on the name you should probably post another thread asking for suggestions.

I don't know what to do now. I know this is pathetic, but now I'm finding myself wondering why I even started this forum in the first place if I was just going to change my mind about everything? Maybe I'll see about starting a blog on forum administration instead.

If you change, definitely change the name.

If you think it'd be a step forward for you and your forum, then do it. 🙂

Well, I had a decent chat with Fowler, anda I did some searching, and I don't know what host I'll use yet or anything, but I'm going to give this one more go and do a Webmaster forum. I'm going to do things MY way, ignore all rude remarks I get, and just try pressing on no matter what. And hope that this works!

It's great to hear that you are so dedicated and enthusiastic already. I am looking forward to the outcome of this project!
