It's clear that the process of fading away has now accelerated significantly. But the forum itself is essentially a dying, retiree-style format. Have you heard of any cool new forums in the last 10-15 years? Or of Zoomers who sit around and communicate somewhere on forums?
I'll tell you more, even for retirees, forums are no longer relevant. Flower/gardening forums (where elderly women primarily communicated) died out much earlier than HeroesWorld. Now almost all grandmothers discuss plants on Telegram and VK.

The amazing thing is, here it was like a courtyard gathering — completely different, sometimes incompatible people came together, and yet they successfully socialized.

I am proud to be a part of this ship, this union, this island, this home, and sometimes even this family.

В тихой однообразной жизни всегда так бывает: каждый отдельный день бесконечно долог, но месяцы и годы мчатся с непостижимой быстротой.

Hmm... I check back a month later to see if the Revanskaya expansion has been resurrected, and instead I find tombstones, obituaries, and not a single living soul... silence... :(

I was thinking about creating a group on Steam, but I'm not sure... They might block the Telegram channel, and I don't want to bother installing Teams (instead of Skype), so maybe Discord will remain the only available place (but just in case, I copied the posts from the thread about completed games)).

Hulk Hogan died, Chuck Norris died, and it turns out HeroesWorld is dying too...

Meanwhile



🤨

Is everything that's happening lagging for me too?

Probably a new type of bot that isn't recognized as a bot.

Forums are the best. Within specific sections, pretty much all active users know each other, which creates a natural and healthy ecosystem with an objective reputation system; relationships develop and strengthen over many years. Also, users can express themselves through profile customization and supplement their persona with a visual component. In contrast, on platforms like Reddit, communication is limited to "threads" where users reply to specific comments rather than maintaining a general discussion topic, plus formatting is restricted, not to mention minimal profile customization; all of this, combined with an audience that's too large, creates the impression of interacting with a "faceless crowd" (and lately, also bots), compared to forum-based personal communication within a limited circle of people.

Why aren't they as popular now? Old forums are naturally losing users - HeroesWorld, for example, is first and foremost a forum about Heroes of Might and Magic, and few people are interested in that nowadays, so there's no reason to google such a site (plus, finding something like that in search results is probably harder now), while old users are simply worn down by life and gradually drift away. At the same time, new forums for fresh topics are probably barely being created, because why bother? You make a thematic group somewhere and that's it, no need to go through the hassle. So that's how it ends up.

By the way, I'm tired of the topic of hating on social networks and online communication in general. I remember I had a very unhealthy atmosphere at school, plus constant scandals at home, no IRL friends, but at least I could log onto HeroesWorld (and to a lesser extent other places too) any day and talk to someone, do something interesting and creative, etc. I think in those years it really helped me develop communication skills, imagination, and many other things.

Another thing is that by customizing their profiles, users can express themselves and enhance their image with visual elements. In contrast, on platforms like Reddit, communication is limited to "threads" where users respond to specific comments rather than maintaining a general discussion topic, plus the formatting is limited, not to mention the minimal profile customization; all of this, combined with a very large audience, creates the impression of interacting with a "gray mass" (and recently, even with bots), compared to personal communication on a forum within a limited circle of people.
Here, Revan very well expressed what a forum is. All these groups in Telegram, channels in Discord, and so on, do not have similar features, and the communication experience in them is completely different. And it's not even about nostalgia and habit, but about the specific functionality.

The problem is that the younger generation doesn't quite understand the charm of forums, and the older generation is too busy with real-life problems. Most people nowadays find it more convenient to follow a ton of threads on boards or watch micro-videos lasting 30-90 seconds.

Same here. There was a period when my nerve cells were held together only by HeroesWorld.

Astral may be young, but he still managed to fit in with the group without any problems 😎

Back then, 20 years ago, most people avoided such places, but for a different reason – not that many people actively used the internet.

Lost a centimeter.

It's just that mods, fragments, and drakkos have suddenly disappeared. Only newbies with arandors are wandering around, and sometimes lizards show up. So it seems the forum is dying. Revhan will come soon, restore order and breathe new life into it...

It was the same 20 years ago.

Bring back my 11 years!
