Pirate Discussion > BootlegGames Wiki

Shouldn't this be the official forum of the wiki?

Barver:
One of the things that's really lacking out there is a pirate-centric community. So far it's just a bunch of scattered forums on websites that only cover certain pirates they own, and usually only for one system. This wiki I believe should finally be "it", the main site to go to for all pirates for all systems, any information available.

But in order for it to really be a complete community, it needs a proper message board. Right now the wiki just links to some other wiki integrated thing that's hard to navigate and not pleasant to look at. I think it makes sense that this forum become the main community center of the website. Right now, this forum is only something that a few select people can get to from knowing about it on the RX Forums. It really deserves to be more, especially since the RX community is like the only other forum where people discuss all this stuff, yet it's not pirate-centric like this place is.

In short, this forum should be made more obvious to be THE place for pirates, and be officially part of the wiki. Then we might actually get a real community, rather than a few guys from RX  :lol:  To tell the truth, I've been personally thinking of starting my own website that covers pirates of all systems, but the more I think about it, the more it seems that any other site would be needless so long as there's a main site for everything plus a forum for everything.

What does everybody else think?

taizou:
Yeah, I absolutely agree, but we'd need to publicise the wiki itself too - pretty much all the active editors on the wiki post here already, and its quite hard to find on Google unless youre already looking for it.

Barver:
I guess advertisement on other forums is needed. I'll make a post on Assembler and other boards I frequent I guess, should get things up a bit I think.

KingPepe:
Barver, I would have to agree with you on this. I wish I can go advertise however I am extremely busy at the moment (plus the only other forum I go to doesn't seem interested). However, I'd love to see it as a whole community myself.

MLX:
The only thing which make me less happy is that people are going to ""steal"" our stuff and the hours of research we made to understand the story of pirate stuff. (Yeah it doesn't make much sense with Engrish).
