Last year, I bought this forum (formerly known as the steam forum) from zander. I've been meaning to turn this forum into something else, but I've been too busy to give this much thought. I have several ideas in mind, but I haven't come to a decision yet. If you guys have any ideas, feel free to post them here. I'll take them into consideration, but there's a chance I could end up doing something nobody's thought about.

We don't have a Forum for Pinball yet. Maybe consider a Pinball Forum?

A dank meme forum would be the best idea, but there's that "family friendly" rule on here, so maybe call it like "DANK MEMES 17+" or something so it doesn't break the rules. 

Pinball forum would be too generic, I mean it sounds good, but not everyone here owns a pinball machine or something along the lines of one.

Make a forum that gives newbies an incentive to stay.

Then maybe the site won't be so dead.

Leaving it as it is may not be a bad idea. People would be throwing in possible projects, discussing them with other users... And on forever more. It's undeniable that this everlasting debate would bring in some activity, after all.

On a more serious note, maybe try reviving the Steam forum? When it first existed, we didn't have the current market nor the current prizes for competitions, so I feel like it would get more attention than before. All we would need is a set of a few rules so as to not drive away traffic from the Vizzed Market forum, which could simply be a rule where offers and "Searching for..." threads belong to the Vizzed Market and not in here. Maybe now is the correct timing for it to be a long-lasting forum, just like Minecraft was before becoming part of the main forums.

TouchMaster97 : like DragonSlayer22 already said, a pinball forum would be too generic. Not only that, but forums for specific games or game franchises almost never stay active for long.

Verkudara : This forum will not be turned into a meme forum since one already exists. Yoshi said it best though, it quickly died.

EX Palen : I'll think about it, but I'm leaning towards a no right now because even with the vizzed market, I don't see the steam forum being a success.

Maybe the last one died because the meme wasn't dank enough. So, if you're dank, which im sure you're, your forum will bring you fortune and fame!

Yeah, I can understand not reviving the Steam forum, but at least it's something that could allow you to buy some time to think on something else, and if it turns out to be a success then all good.

Maybe a forum for e-sports? They're something trendy right now, with TV channels entirely dedicated to them. I don't feel like they really belong to the existent Sports forum, so testing out a separate forum for them wouldn't hurt anybody.

I still keep my idea of letting this forum as it is, it already is more active than a few of the ideas suggested so far

E-sports forums sounds like a great idea! People can get Viz for playing games that people suggest, and even compete with high scores and screenshots for proof of what's done. You could probably have payout people running the forums and paying people Viz for their high scores. 

This whole idea could take simple things like Netplay Sessions or the aforementioned screenshot submitting to a whole new level.

gamerforlifeforever :

The question is how you define "success".

A Steam Forum (while not a great idea), would probably be about as successful as any other rented forum on site not named Innocent Town (which is literally larger than some of the actual forums on site). In the current climate of nobody posting, it wouldn't take much for it to be "successful".

By even that merit, yes, an awful "Meme" forum would be successful.

You need to be less vague about your goal here. It's hard to recommend something for you, if the only thing you want is for the forum to be a "success".

Hm... Keeping this as a Steam forum doesn't sound like a bad idea at this time (especially if you can make good threads to keep it active) but is there anything you particularly enjoy or feel passionate about (maybe you could use that as the theme instead)? Also, what do you mean exactly by "doing something nobody's thought about?" Do you already have an idea for what to turn this forum into, or are you thinking of selling this forum?

I felt a burst of excitement as I thought about this the other day... and then I forgot. Thankfully I remember now.

Anyway, I came up with the idea of a comparison forum. My main idea with this was to compare different conversions of video games, such as Galaga. That game is on so many game systems so there could be a practically endless combination of threads comparing 2 different conversions. However, I remember from a long time ago that "X vs Y" threads were against the rules so I didn't know what would work.

If that doesn't become a forum, I'll likely still do those kinds of threads after discussing it with staff members.

geeogree : I'll get with him and see what he thinks.

gamerforlifeforever : How about turning this into a Radio and TV DXing forum? In this forum, people would be able to talk about any TV and Radio stations they received that aren't broadcast in their area (I.E. Davideo7 is able to receive KMXG 96.1, Davenport Iowa up in Prescott Wisconsin and I'm able to receive whatever stations he has up there)

I've been thinking about this for awhile, but I've narrowed the ideas down to 2. Either I sell the forum back to zander so that he can revive the steam forum, or I'll go with EX Palen's eSports idea.

EX Palen : I don't know a whole lot about eSports, so if I chose that I'd need someone or multiple people to help with modding the forum and making the threads/posts needed to keep the forum active. Would you be interested in being a rented forum mod for an eSports forum?

I don't know a lot about them either, though we have a dedicated channel over here that could get me on track with things. Not sure if they only deal with local tournaments or they go fully global, but at least I have a good start to get into them.

I'll try to do a search today and see if I could come up with a few threads in the next couple of days, just so this forum can be active at the moment of its launch.

What about a streaming forum, where people could have a thread dedicated to their channels, and they could announce stream schedules, updates, etc. They could even have interactions with people. 
If Vizzed users do this that have a few normal viewers, they could try to recruit the people to the site, and make this a place of communcation with the creator, thus driving up traffic. 
Then, there could be a stickied thread where all the streamers streams have been put into a schedule. 

I don't know. I got this idea in my head for a streaming forum for awhile now, but nobody is selling. Just thought I'd throw this out there, because I doubt 440k Viz is enough to get you to sell.

Vizzed.com is very expensive to keep alive! The Ads pay for the servers.

Vizzed has 3 TB worth of games and 1 TB worth of music.  This site is free to use but the ads barely pay for the monthly server fees.  If too many more people use ad block, the site cannot survive.

We prioritize the community over the site profits.  This is why we avoid using annoying (but high paying) ads like most other sites which include popups, obnoxious sounds and animations, malware, and other forms of intrusiveness.  We'll do our part to never resort to these types of ads, please do your part by helping support this site by adding Vizzed.com to your ad blocking whitelist.
