Runescape Forum

[Callum.]

Don't think it will work. ***** if popular because it is a botting forum, this section used to be popular because the amount of us who played. No body really wants to leave either forum. You'll get you and a couple of friends who will most likely be admins/moderators as the only ones posting.

It's hard to advertise. You'll get flamed on ***** and not sure you can advertise on things like zybez or tip.it (think they have a forum). Not many people play from here either, and I doubt any want to go to a new forum that will die quickly either.

I voted no.

There are already alot of rs forums out there so you'd have competition but i guess it could work , id say it wouldnt though.

Goodluck if you go through with it.

@ Mint - Thanks, I suppose it's hard but, idk if it could be successful.
@ Callum. - I agree to some extent. I might add something on here.

Ok, the added thing, instead of a random forum, also have a clan? A skiller clan, a fighting clan, have like two different clan leaders and they both use the forum for it.

Tbh I think rs hxf forums are dead so yeah I'd sign up and help you out.

Thanks a lot! I'm really considering it now. But what software?

1. Nulled vBul.
2. MyBB.
3. SMF

(or suggest others )

A nulled vB would get you shut down very quickly, not worth it in my opinion. You'll get a few members, then they probably won't sign back up once you come back from being shut down.

Bleh, k. I suppose we'll go with different software. Now for a domain. I've found cheap .org domains. Domain ideas? Something like rsforums.org or rsforum.org or runescapeforums.org or something like that. Ideas?!?

This was tried before, and it failed.
It's not worth it as there are enough RS forums already.

[Jay.]

LOL, I'm getting mixed thoughts here.

I would say make the forum, make the clans to go along, and maybe even do some events.

As for what to buy, I would go with a .net or a .com.. .org sounds horrible tbh.. And for the forum, go with MyBB or PhBB as they both are good free ones.. I have experience in running forums, and I would help run it if you need. As for popularity, its always nice to have a forum with 50-100 people that know each other, and are all in a clan.. Who knows, maybe it could get really popular?

Naming it, things like "Runescapeforum.org" sound bad tbh.
