Going into the future

I am continuing the conversation started in the "Server not found" thread because the discussion veered towards a new topic.
My expectations is that in the near future we are getting into a period with two similar forums, here and at MF. There will be members belonging only to one and some overlapping.
It is a trade-off, it can split the community, but there is safety in numbers, if one of the sites runs in legal troubles there will be an automatic backup.
Presently there is more activity here, coming from a smaller (but not small) number of more active users. MF is slowly coming back to life, and it is anybody's guess how far it will go.
If you want to get a larger community here, the best way is to get your friends or mistresses to join, or to post in both places. Probably most of the MF members who did not join, really don't feel like giving another try to anything new.
Those who have joined are the ones the most active at this particular moment of time. So I expect a split of character between the two sites determined by a few factors.
MF is more NY centric, while Domina more Atlanta. Domina is smaller and has more mistress involvement. This creates a different climate, where most posters know each other, and a more civil discourse.
Domina has a few things going for it, which make me optimistic about its future. First the admin capability might be determinant in future.
MF can happily slog around without an Admin, until some point is reached where an Admin is absolutely necessary. This will happen because of change, be it technical, where without a change some must have new feature can't be accommodated, or legal, that something will have to be done for compliance.
The other part is that history is made by people, not by the blind forces of history. Domina has been extremely nimble in this crisis, it made all the right moves, and unlike MF which lost Max Fisch it has its founders here. To me their face is Mistress Ayn, and I expect her to make history.

MF is more NY centric, while Domina more Atlanta. Why not become more international? I have a lot of French speaking subs and mistresses on my twitter, slowly looking over here--not just the expats. I can't do that on Max because any special characters often found in French will blank out the post. We should get someone on from Frankfort or Zurich or somewhere like that.

I am not really sure what this means but the only reason I am the top poster is that I have been part of the forum almost since its inception. I think I was the 2nd or 3rd Domme to be given board powers and I did't abandon it when the new wore off. I think before long Cheyenne or Domina M will take that top spot and I welcome that. It will mean that the board is more diverse. It's only been my wish that this board flourish. There are so many topics that get brought up on MF that I would love to comment on but I have been burned over there by flaming and the lack of moderation. I will go there to comment on reviews left for me or to post travel news, but that's it.

Honestly, I think the best way to make a board popular is to try to come up with interesting discussion topics.
People will come here if they think the discussions are interesting, and they'll register so they can post if they see something they want to respond to.

I agree with that. Although I’m retired from sessions I do like to read the forums. It’s nice to hear things from a Domme’s POV. I think like someone else said with Twitter and Fet Life the forums aren’t as popular these days.

I think the civility on this board has been a breath of fresh air. Good topics, a lot of good information from informed people and most importantly differences of opinion are welcomed and respected.
I especially want to compliment the Dommes for their gracious and interesting posts. I think we are blessed to have the elegant, fun and classy Dommes who so graciously participate here.
