In modern times, social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Discord, and X (formerly Twitter) are the most popular forms of online interactions.

Seven out of ten forum communities that were surging in popularity back in the day are either long gone or absolute ghost towns, obviously overshadowed by the aforementioned SM platforms.

Yet, some communities (like Vizzed) are still going pretty strong! As someone who isn't really a big fan of modern social platforms, this is personally a 'feel-good' thing for me. Forum communities still surviving in the somewhat shadows of big SM platforms means that they are possibly still doing something that those modern platforms aren't

Now obviously at the end of the day, it's the community that keeps a site like this one and similar ones alive. But what else is keeping forums alive? What do guys think it is besides the people itself?

tgags123: Thank you for the welcome!

I haven't noticed any familiar names just yet but I'm sure I'll eventually notice some.

I just finished a playthrough of Half Life Source. An absolute nostalgia trip.

Gonna be honest though, that game (at least the source version) is a lot more tedious than I remember it being.

Still a great time though!

Hello everyone! I was a member of this site a LONG time ago, back in the early 2000s, and I don't know why I stopped coming back. This site was a major part of my childhood. I've always had a great love for the classics and as a kid who couldn't afford to buy an overpriced SNES on eBay, this site (and emulating in general) were my go to places.

I'm sure the people I talked to back in the day here are long gone (I honestly don't even remember my username from back then), so I'll start fresh.

I'm just a 27 year old guy whose big into retro-gaming/collecting and I'm hoping I can share the joy I get out of it all with everyone here!

I'd also like to give Davideo7 props for keeping the forums up and not changing this site's design because I still think this site is gorgeous years later.
