You want a new forum?
Actually... we may just want a different look for
this forum.
As said, it'll be difficult to beat Bitcointalk. It has history, it has great info stored in it and it has great and helpful members. What does your forum have? And if you'll tell me that you have nothing, but it's better packed that's not enough.
Sorry if I'm too harsh, but I've took a quick look there and:
1. The topics are about... anything. And it's not really structured.
2. It looks more like blog posts with comments than a forum. And the name also suggest this.
You seem to advertise a general purpose blogging platform as crypto forum... here. Ummm... no. That won't work.
in the end, is a new forum really needed?
next to Bitcointalk (which is very hard to reach), there are several others
Altcoinstalk, cryptotalk who have been building a position for years and they spent a lot of money in them.
I wonder what the new forum can offer, and why users would move there? a forum without users and without quality discussions is a complete failure. I think that so many forums arise only from the lack of quality ideas.
