What's the point of forums?

@Retriever II It blows my mind to think that the MFGG forums were once getting one million posts per year. Even if a good chunk of the posts during the PPP era were barely intelligible, that's a lot of people posting every day. It's even more amazing when you think that IPB-era MFGG was never actively promoted or advertised outside the community, and I think much of the site wasn't even indexed by search engines.

Of course, I also understand why a lot of the admins of that era wanted to favor quality over quantity. Part of me misses the days when MFGG was super-active, although being a smaller, more coherent community also has its perks.

Course clear! You got a card.
