With all due respect, what is the purpose of having two forums with near-identical use?
The userbase here is already small; it seems absurd to divide it further between this site and your site.
This is not meant as an attack on your site, which is indeed well-designed. Just an observation.

With all due respect, what is the purpose of having two forums with near-identical use? My forum was already online before this one, only this forum has so far mange to get more members, while i have fewer members i try to make my forum different by having all these extra's. The userbase here is already small; it seems absurd to divide it further between this site and your site. Then i should not tell you there is another active AH forum here on proboards. This is not meant as an attack on your site, which is indeed well-designed. Just an observation. None taken, if i can withstand the question of people saying that AH.com rules and my forum should simply be deleted then i can take it.

Okay, need answer where is the jar of honing that makes this forum so attractive, and if so where can i buy it. I'm really not sure what made this place more successful than your forum. I mean, I can list a few things that would turn me, personally away from your forum (the large number of unnecessary boards and categories, the fact that it seems to be your personal forum more than a general forum for all members of the community, etc.), but I don't know exactly why this place has gotten so many members and so much activity in comparison. Maybe it's because this forum's creation was associated with controversy on AH.com, and a lot of people who were sympathetic came here? Maybe it's because I'm generally more well-known on AH.com?

I mean, yeah I came her because of Ian, plus I wouldn't have found out without you posting the site on the AH.com Skype group.

I mean, I can list a few things that would turn me, personally away from your forum (the large number of unnecessary boards and categories. I toughed my forum has the maximum of number of boards and categories of no more then 15, but you are correct have removed one main board and a sub board so that there are now only 14 of them. the fact that it seems to be your personal forum more than a general forum for all members of the community, etc.) Also here you are correct, have removed the category with my name on it and also removed two of my timelines (still have the wiki) and make it more a general AH forum and also the forum is still small, if somebody post i post back s it looks for now that my forum is more my personal forum more than a general forum. Maybe it's because this forum's creation was associated with controversy on AH.com, and a lot of people who were sympathetic came here? Maybe it's because I'm generally more well-known on AH.com? Well one way i am jealous that this forum has many active and none active members on the other hand, i have members who post, maybe i need to give it some time and see it as a sign that i still have work on improving the forum.

I haven't checked out Alternate Timelines in a while, but it looks like it's growing steadily! And congratulations on your forum's anniversary (I know it's still a bit early, but I'll probably forget in two weeks )!

If this forum like mine post stuff on Facebook two major AH groups then maybe more people will lurk and even join, it works with mine forum and it most likely works on this forum as well.

I've posted about this forum on the Bacchanalia facebook group a couple of times - what other facebook AH groups are there?
