Feedback on Improving Forum Engagement and User Experience

[daisynaive96]

Hello Everyone,

I’ve been a member of this forum for a little while now, and I truly enjoy the discussions and the wealth of knowledge shared here about gaming. However, I believe there’s always room for improvement when it comes to enhancing engagement and the overall user experience on the platform. I’d love to hear your thoughts and share some of my own ideas!

1. Thread Categories: Do you think the current categories are sufficient, or should we expand them to include more niche gaming topics? For example, would sections for “Retro Gaming” or “Indie Game Spotlights” be beneficial?
2. Community Events: Would you be interested in events like gaming tournaments, weekly gaming challenges, or even “Game of the Month” discussions? These could encourage more participation and foster a stronger sense of community.
3. Platform Features: Are there any specific features you feel could improve usability? For instance, a better notification system for replies, the ability to follow specific threads, or enhanced mobile usability for browsing and posting?
4. Content Sharing: How about a section dedicated to user-generated content, like fan art, game reviews, or even modding tutorials? This could allow members to showcase their creativity and knowledge.
5. Social Media Integration: Do you think integrating the forum with social media (e.g., sharing threads on platforms like Twitter or Discord) would help attract new members?

I’m genuinely curious about everyone’s opinions and suggestions. Let’s brainstorm ways to make Gaming Latest even better!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Thanks in advance for your help and support.

Thread Approved. I loved the Community Events I thought something similar years ago would see everyone input on what games they want to have a tournament on? for Content Sharing I like it but we need to Restrict AI Art or Animation artwork. I would love a Discord and Gaming Latest Post Intergration So we can get notify when a user posts on this forum

This is possible with the “watch feature”, which allows you to follow certain threads.
You can also install the PWA app and you’ll receive notifications right away instead of in the browser.

I am looking into more discord integration for our big upcoming upgrade.
