It has been ovious for a long time to me that Pokeforums isn't doing well now in terms of handling inactivity and change. Why that is, I don't know. I do know, however, that I want to keep the forum that this site represents. I am sure that there are a few others who want to as well. So, if you have any ideas on how to help the forum rebuild, whether on this site or on a new one, post them here...please. I don't want to see this place go any time soon.

thanks for making the topic if i could i woulda made you gmod by now lol
i have an idea! to (re)join you have to advertise at at least 1 site. EASY. piece of cake.
if you get 5 members to pokeforums because of your advertising, the graphics team (well need to make one) will make you a sig and avatar that you request. plus well give you a custom title.

Hmm...It would be a bit odd to advertise the site just to join. (At least, that's my opinion.) But I do agree that if you advertise or find something like an affiliate, you should be rewarded. I do have a lot of questions though about how we should go about rebuilding Pokeforums. Here are the questions that stick out: 1: New colors. what scheme should the forum have? 2: Enjoyment events and sections. Should we keep Pokemon of the Week or the Pokemon RPG, and what else should we add on that members will like? 3: Rules. How scrict should they be? And...I do have an opinion to share about games like those in the game board on this forum: I know that we all enjoy games like 'To 1000' and others, but it drives me nuts at times that people recieve so many posts on their post count from these games. So, I think that, to make it fair, we check the 'No posts go to post count' option for that individual board. Not all the others, but just that one, as it tends to get a little out of hand in my opinion... Really? Thankies! As always, I do appriciate these compliments. Edit: One last question: 4: Admin. Who should remake the forum? (I say HB, since you said you do have more free time than some of us.)

i hardly get any homework, 8th grade rocks =P
ill make it.
i agree with no post count for the games- but if any other board would have no post count i would say rpg, it doesnt really have anything to do with the forum.
colorscheme... how about we vote? ill make a new topic with a list of color schemes to vote on.
forget my advertise to join thing but i think there should be major rewards for advertising
rules shouldnt be too strict, but strict enough to keep the forum running.

I pretty much can agree with everything you said. I also have brainstormed names for categories, and their boards: (This is basically an idea of how the forum could look.)
General
~Rules ~Announcements
Site Discussion
~Questions, Suggestions or Problems ~General Discussion ~Meet the mods (If you want.)
Pokemon Video Games
~Red/Blue/Yellow ~Gold/Silver/Crystal ~Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald ~Fire Red/Leaf Green ~Others
Fanwork
~Stories ~~Short Stories ~~Fan Fiction ~Art
RPGing
~Pokemon RPGs ~Other RPGs
Advanced Pokmon RPG
Edit: How will you let people know what the site's URL is?
