Jayson Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 What do you do? Well, I am into forums. In fact, I've had several forums over the years. Most of them were related to music, but some were about math, business, religion, general chat, and art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I know HTML fully, and have run several forums over the years. I build them to my specifications, and go from there. They're fun, and sometimes I make them just for the hell of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I've owned quite a few sites over the past years and I currently run a general discussion forum. It's a fun little hobby that gives me something to do when I'm bored. Previously, I've had gaming forums and blogs, webmaster forums and blogs, and even a gaming social network.

The Blackangel Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 (edited) I have run a couple websites too. I still have one forum up, but no one uses it anymore. Hell, there's only a couple boards on it at the moment, because there's no one there so nothing specific is in any kind demand.

Empire Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 There are many members on VGR that have run forums/sites now or in the past, I know basic. Truth to be told that all people that are into web development should know all basics and also know the area. Other than that, do not bother. I myself have been running forums for good 10 years and I own a gaming related site for the last seven years and before that a GTA clan. Being mods for others for even longer.

egghead Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I use content management systems to build websites (blogs and forums). I have half a dozen websites monetized with adsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizdustry Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I am really into forums. With this, I’m pretty much fluent in HTML and nearly CSS with a tiny amount of knowledge about JavaScript. All three languages are very important for web development for developers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dismal_Bliss Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 I'm a web hobbyist and a forum-junkie, lol. I have 2 forums of my own, one is religious and the other is for keto-carnivore diet lifestyles. I'm also an admin on a dog training community and a staff member on a webmaster community. I have a VPS where I host sites for myself and my friends. I learned HTML back in the 90's, then some CSS, Perl, and PHP, usually through hacking freeware scripts to get them to do want I needed them to do, which was more than the authors had programmed them to do. These days I don't have much use for programming anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried to teach myself, but it was a futile attempt. Dismal_Bliss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killamch89 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 That's really cool! Forums have always been a great way to bring like-minded people together. Did any of your forums grow into something bigger, or were they more for niche communities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did any of your forums grow into something bigger, or were they more for niche communities? My forum is currently a niche community for pet games and sims. One day, it’ll probably morph into something bigger. I know Jason runs a math and music forum. Edited August 19 by Cpvr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
