So the real issue here, is creating a community that welcomes people when they finally show up here.

some people might not want to this place to get too large (not me)
Planned content. Scheduled Podcast and small YouTube isn't getting anywhere without help.

IMO I think we could accomplish the kind of specialised posting by simply merging hobby/job stuff with serious. I mean, it would boost the PPH in serious and bring a more reasoned coffee room atmosphere with which new members could enjoy.
I think private groups will help bring longevity to the site, as well as a reason for existing, as long as we don't fizzle out and the population doesn't thin in the beginning.Besides that, I do agree with you that the atmosphere around here (especially The Flood) isn't exactly welcoming to newbies. I mean...I can change the rules and make the punishments more harsh in an attempt to get the folks around here to straighten up and not be so batshit crazy, but no change is going to be welcomed by everyone. I'm not sure exactly what to do regarding this, but it's something I'll continue to think about.
Not sure how I feel about several small boards. They won't get a lot of activity.
We need an Azula board.
I'd love to invite more people here but this forum is way too toxic.
