Dedicated section of the forum for a group?

Post by ddbas »

I suppose the question was raised by others: we are a group of more than 130 players and would like to know if it’s possible to have a subsection of the forum for this group.
Thanks

That's what BGA community groups are made for. On the community page https://boardgamearena.com/community, you can find a button to start a new group (private or public).

Language is a source of misunderstanding. (Antoine de Saint-Exupery: The Little Prince) But it is also the source of understanding - it all depends on how you use it. :-)

we already have a group; but it's very difficult to organize discussions, tournament etc with only the discussions threads.

I assume the answer to your question is going to be "no." Have you investigated other solutions, such as Discord?

Yeah, I wouldn't expect so. I mean, yes, 130 in a group is reasonable, but considering the user base of BGA as a whole - I mean, there are 17k users online right now, and 130 of them is a drop in the bucket, I can't see the admin dedicating a section of the forum just for your group. Not to mention the precedent it would set (if every group over 100 members wanted a forum section, I think we'd have more forums for groups than for actual games). You'd need to look into alternatives such as Discord as mentioned.
