Sorry yeah, we retired this section. The navbar link should be gone now.

The experiment had mixed success. There was some uptick, but I don't think that it was helping the overall forums. Handling niche subforums would need to be done in a different manner.

yeah it was starting to grow on me. We can't expect a new forum to just take off right away. You have to give it some time.

Exactly.

On subject of new forums and the cults.


I feel like there should be a bulletin sent to everyone explaining what a cult is, some of the popular ones, and how to get in them.

I think they'd do better if the new member actually knew what they were.


Also send something out to be like yo we got these shiny new forums check em out.

Idk, maybe some people would see it and be like OH WORD

The referenced post has been removed.

Yes totally agreed it was a great forum. It helped me learn 90% of my trampoline and ski tricks.

Update the noobs guide to NS to contain some info about cults, and every new member should get a PM saying " check out this thread for more info on NS: (insert noobs guide here), have fun!!"

I tried to make it work! I personally thought it was a super awesome database of information, and was a good way of avoiding repeat threads.

With that being said, I definitely do understand the need to keep SG bumpin'
