User blog:1337doom/Proposition: Dev/community stuff here too?

A while back a forum was attempted to be created called IndieSomniac for YN fangame devs and fans, however it has not received any posts since July. While it was a very good idea for a community, it appeared that it was just too niche to maintain users for long. Instead of attempting to revive that, I was thinking we could attempt to have this place have more of a community aspect to it on account of how we already receive regular edits and contributions. Attempting to build community around here is more feasible than trying to start or revive an additional site because we don't need to keep people directed here to continue it's popularity since some of us are already here. Instead it'll be more related to trying to establish this place's existence as a community to other fans and devs that may only visit here passively.

This would involve developer/wip-fangames help and discussion (could be done on pages dedicated to it or at least listing resources in other places we may wish to use, as well as user blogs as i'm demonstrating right here for our own fangames) and discussion of the fangames we like (already somewhat done using the comments section, but a greater focus on theories and fanstuff especially with those fangames that do not receive the popularity that 2kki and .flow do) among basically whatever else.

This isn't really something we can officially put into action so much as strive for, but I mean, we're here and we love these games, so we may as well make the most of it, yes? I know some people have conversations on their message walls and stuff but let's try and extend that to public blog-based conversations with everyone who may be reading!
