Just looks super outdated and boring.
Nobody cares about OnRPG anymore, we don't even do giveaways. No developer says, "Get keys on OnRPG!!" anymore... nobody cares about this place, and I'm not even sure you could google anything except the keyword OnRPG to bring you to these forums. Our SEO sucks.
Our front page of the website is terrible. Our forums are outdated, and we have a bunch of people with the most obnoxious signatures, just ruining browsing here via mobile completely.
Maybe allow Guests to post on the boards again.
Add a max size to signatures.
Change the entire forum layout to have less sections, more clean look (kind of like Reddit layout, because ppl like that shit).
Drop content and have some incentives for people to post here.
Giveaways from commenting, or something like that.
Just remove the front page of OnRPG. Make the website dedicated to being a discussion community.
Have the Youtube and live streams actually playing MMORPGs.
Dedicate a large portion of OnRPG to Mobile MMOs. Mobage games (which Steparu likes to call them) are the future of MMOs. Games like RO, Lineage 2, DOFUS, and FlyFF have already converted. The market is huge for mobile MMOs, and it's expanding. OnRPG made its mark when MMOs were expanding and growing, only makes sense for our second breathe to be riding the new wave: Mobile MMOs.
Get close to developers. Get keys, giveaways, bonuses, guides.
Remember OnRPG had a hold on one MMORPG niche, Foreign MMOs. Yet again, foreign MMOs are leading the mobile MMO market. We can be the first for a real community surrounding new releases and information for Foreign Mobages.
Make sure the forum runs on mobile, and runs on mobile NICEEEE.
Maybe have an app for OnRPG. I personally hate tapatalk, so having our own app imo would be better, but OnRPG definitely needs to work on Tapatalk, because it's the most popular forum app.
TL;DR
Realistic changes:
Signature size limit,
Removing front page,
Allow Guest posting (w/ recaptcha),
Focus on Mobile MMOs and Mobile Foreign MMOs,
Reach out to developers,
Make Onrpg boards run smooth on mobile,
Youtube and stream focus on new MMORPGs/Mobile MMOs/MOBAs ONLYYY
Difficult changes:
Entire new board layout,
Personal app
