    Forum Content Scheduling

    For community managers looking to maximize their efficiency, the ability to schedule threads is a must. This is built in as a core feature to IPS.

    Ever Bought out your forum competition?

    Just curious. Why didn't you keep the branding and domain of the bigger one?

    Ever Bought out your forum competition?

    I definitely think forum admins should be opportunistic and at least be open minded to opportunities when they present, and prepare a number in their head of what they would be willing to go to but no higher (it's what I call the "no regrets" number -- youre willing to pay up to that amount, and...

    How much did you spend on your forum?

    I like you :) I like Shawn :) I like certain people who bring an elevated level of conversation that isn't always found in legacy admin circles

    Who do you have create your graphics these days?

    I agree, I've learned that simplicity goes a long ways, especially when you're focused and new.

    How much did you spend on your forum?

    Wait, I was looking at ForumJunkies which is 'on sale' for only $998.

    Are you a big tipper in real life?? :D

    How much did you spend on your forum?

    I have a sister topic on AJ: https://admin-junkies.com/threads/how-much-are-you-willing-to-lose-before-you-cut-your-losses.16510/ The way that I asked my question on AJ is to make it sharper in helping people think through at what threshold is the spending too much.

    What's the hardest part about starting a new forum?

    This used to be my most favorite quote. So inspiring! And then I had a friend point out that you also land in the soul crushing black void of space too. 😄

    Forums that Help Forum Owners

    Admin Talk deserves a shout-out simply for it's legacy 😃

    One-column forum-style

    One of the default views of IPS is a stream view anyways. It's very Discourse-ish

    Would you ban a popular member?

    Wait, why would you ban someone for being a registered sex member? What does that have to do with online participation in a weather forum?

    Invision Is Invision leading the forum space?

    Certainly out of the legacy developers, I would argue WBB and IPS are the most forward thinking. IPS has a very strong hypothesis about the future of online communities: much more solutions oriented, much more about learning and content management, much more transactional.

    Entering a Saturated Forum Niche

    I tried to Google it, and found ForumsForums! It's like what Reddit would be if it were forums 😆. What a shame on AT. Literal ghost town. Pretty sure one of ifs most recent posts are my promo posts about Admin Junkies.

    Is Artificial Intelligence a THREAT to Forums?

    I view it as a helpful supplement. I'll be the first to honestly admit - and in not way am I ashamed at all - that I use ChatGPT to sometimes help me craft a new forum thread. The thread's idea and focus is all mine, but sometimes I'm braindead and don't want to craft the "prefacing" that...

    Entering a Saturated Forum Niche

    Me too! It is a horrible, terrible, strategic mistake LOL. I cannot emphasize enough how bad and irrational of a decision it is. It's a shrinking niche in a shrinking industry with a shrinking audience. From a strategy perspective, it's literally one of the worst target niches you can pursue 🙃

    How does your forum make you feel?

    Is it actually forums itself that give you the rush of joy, or being a part of a community? For example, do you get the same rush when you post in Facebook or on another online group?

    Forum Rules versus No Forum Rules

    Either? Both? But the main point is that we need to present them at the point of engagement, not bury them in some footer links or put up a wall of text. It needs to be short, easy to read, easy to understand, and easy to implement.
