Win $10 for a 40 word reply - The Elite - Oct 8, 2013
I need you to write in 40 words about what would actually make you join a gaming social network. What interests you? Right now my developers and I are going on a development spree, programming numerous features from scratch, so you could potentially shape one of the greatest gaming sites to launch in the near future. Just simply post in 40 words or more what would truly get you to join a gaming social network, and you'll go in the running to win $10!

In order for me to join a gaming forum, it needs to be original. Cliche right? It can't just be another forum with bland sections about different consoles. You have to offer something new, something fun, something no one is used to. Contests, gaming teams, livestreams, interact with the community and make sure that everyone is able to participate and not just the 'well known' members. You need to strive to be the best in order to become it.

Fantastic reply, thank you very much. I'll note down exactly what you mentioned... The idea of livestreams interests me significantly.

Hazy if you win, you owe me the money, you are in debt to me.

Short Version
Has to be original. It could be similar to TTG, but without all the newfags. All types of sections. Have particular sections for different types of games. Have monthly forum wide contests. Host competitions on popular games. Have good staff.
Long Version
For me to join another gaming forum, it would have to be original, since there are already so many out there. It would have to be similar to TTG, but maybe without all the newfags, since that is why I don't go there anymore. I would want you to have all types of sections, from, new gamers, to experienced gamers, to gaming hackers, and have particular sections for different types of games. Maybe you could also have monthly forum wide contests (or maybe even section wide), that have cool and interesting rewards. You should host competitions on popular games. And last but not least, have a good team of staff moderating and improving the forum 24/7.

I'm glad that you liked my response. I might make a formal 40-word response to what you should advertise your forum with also.

If you read the original post:
"I need you to write in 40 words about what would actually make you join a gaming social network. What interests you?

"I might make a formal 40-word response to what you should advertise your forum with also."
Intending that the first was 40 words also. But whatever.

If I was going to join a gaming community it would have to appeal to all kinds of platforms and games, not just a specific type. It would also be great to stream speedruns and such, that attracts an audience of it's own and gives you a lot of flexibility to add guides and techniques on how to get the fastest time on a game as well as archiving the best times.
Just my thoughts.

Have lots of different games. Video Tuts. Sectionalized forums. Livestreams. Interaction (Very important). Prizes and Awards.
How to code simple games. Contests. Good Mods and Admins. Art for games. Hacks and Exploits of games. Stuffs like that.
Keywords only..
Booyah!
