What YOUR ideal community?

[Niecy]

Enough talking about everyone else's likes in a forum. But what do YOU like in a forum? What makes you want to join? Is it the design? or Maybe how tight the community is?

Answer here.

If the blog/forum has great content like: http://www.dennisedell.com/ . Even if it has a sucky theme. If the content is good then Ill probably join.

I'll be watching this with interest, might give me some ideas why I get no members

 

[StripesAndFins]

I usually join for the activity and content. If it is a nice looking forum with a good style and topic, but is dead then I will not join.

 

[Deleted member 1609]

I just want a decent forum with friendly people.

But if everyone had that attitude then no forums would get off the ground surley?

 

[death180]

yes that's why not everyone has that attitude.


I have yet to see a community that i really like, there is only one right now. I look for good people. People that are really close, not a huge community like FP, but smaller so everyone knows everyone else.

Friendly community, Activity, Content, Members with similar music tastes - especially if I can promote my forum.

I like active forums based on topics I like and enjoy, plus a friendly community is always a good plus.

Sounds like my main interests. Also I look for a friendly community. Doesn't have to be really active either. As long as there are even just a couple of people posting at a time, that still gives me someone to talk to, which is what I mainly look for.

I join is it have a interesting topic or subject, and decide if i'll register are not.

I don't just join forums for the fun of it. If I see a long term purpose or potential then I will join.

 

[Lee Lawson]

I will join a forum, if the goal they set is reached. Also have a good stable community posting around, friendly staff willing to help, and hugs and cookies.

 

[Qbone]

One that builds upon itself and invites more people.

I'd say the community is the most important thing for me. The theme has to be something I'm interested in though. 😛
