Would the head staff be open to accepting someone, not necessarily myself, but someone, to moderate and facilitate the steam group. It doesn't get much love and could probably find it's place and be useful as a medium for people. Not going to elaborate on this because I have done elsewhere, but a straight answer of whether steam mods are a viable prospect, and whether the steam will be given any love at all.

Excluding the chat, aren't the steam groups (at heart) just a place where you can group multiple people in the same community together into a list so people can find them and to post snippets of news? What's there to moderate, really?
Even if they were responsible for updating the description they would do a better job than what we have now.

that's kind of the point though

the forums don't see much activity, but they're big and hosted and that could pose a concern. steam groups can easily just sit there. people can drudge along at their current rate, pulling up something new every once in a while that other people might have interest in. a steam forum would sort of be able to perpetuate too, like, oh no we need to stop hosting blocktopia.org but its a good thing a steam group is pre-established to maintain some degree of place to do forum things.

I suppose, but that seems a little long term towards the end. We need to try to get people from steam to the forums, not from steam to a steam group separate from the forums.

All we have is the forums at this point, we need to keep it going if we're going to survive

The forums are pretty active tho
They're more active than the servers, but unless you like reading leaving threads or roleplaying it's quite boring. Even the league section has died down, we're all so active on ts there's no reason to restate info on the forums.

And I don't even know how active the forums really are. Seems like a lot of posts made by the same 15 or so people, which, is better than the servers, but still not good enough to try to maintain this "playerbase" and a new one on a steam forum

my thoughts were that steam wasn't a drain on community resources when nothing is active bar roleplay, other than that you're pretty much right since the forums are a lot cleaner, among other things.
