This site might draw in more users if the FAQ were more persuasive

I don't want to tell you how to run a website or build a community, because I don't know how to do those things skillfully.

But I would have joined this website earlier if the FAQ had been customized.

I clicked "FAQ" and I saw what looked like a standard, boring FAQ about phpBB. I know about phpBB. It has been a vague cluster of background knowledge for years. It does not thrill me like 911 controversies and decentralized networks thrill me.

So maybe this forum is supposed to be a place to make your own communities? If that is the case, the FAQ could say, "Hey, are you ambitious and self-empowering? If so, come on in and make your own community for your niche!"

Is this forum supposed to be traditionalist? if so, the FAQ could say, "We welcome traditionalists. Listening to Devo is optional."

Is this forum intended to fix problems with well-known boards? If so, maybe the FAQ should say that. E.g."We tried reddit and we didn't like policies A, B, and C, so now we started this place, which has different, better policies."

Thanks for posting. I'm still finalizing this website and an important part will be to write more about my intentions behind it. Coming soon.

You're very welcome to discuss 9/11 and traditionalism. Anything you like, basically, but no porn and nothing illegal. You can add tags when you post a topic. This is equivalent to a hashtag on Twitter. But I recognize that this possibility doesn't invite people to talk about anything in particular. That's why there are also forums. I will open up board requests soon.

I'm trying to figure out how to reply to LS2's reply. I assume that you can only reply to the original poster. Maybe I'm just missing it.

There's a quote button in the header of each post.

Ok. I started to use that, but I wasn't sure if it would reply to the quoted person or OP. Thanks!
