Yo I haven't been on this game for over a year. Is it dead? Like, is there still a multiplayer and modding community?

Hi @Thomas Stewart,

Of course !! I'm new to this forum but I'm happy to see that the game continues to live even if it seems dead... If you want to help to help this game, just go for it !!

The game has a pretty large user base, though this forum has gotten more or less abandoned over the years, to the point of which there are about 20 regular users and a few people who come and go a lot. It’s great to see more people coming to this forum lately, I wonder if we could increase the number by making the Forums button bigger on the 0ad website (as it is, it’s a little small and hard to see, especially on a phone).

As much as I hate for it to be true, I think the forum format has essentially died off.

While I personally prefer it and find it easier to search than other alternatives, there's no GUI fix that can bring in newer people to the forum.

I know that the team is/was skeptical of Discord, but I'm fine with anything as long as the community is active. I checked the irc yesterday and that's in an even worse shape.

There are several Discords already open that we could migrate to, but it would probably be best to start our own. Sad really, since using Discord seems to encourage the posting of random crap over actual discussion of useful topics. But maybe it will be for the best.

Yeah, Decide4U a few weeks ago. I'm relatively new to the forum as well, so I don't know of any others.

That young man had just arrived at the forum, if you look closely there are older profiles whose authors are very old and they were also recurrent.

In art you see that there was a greater variety of people and now it is a dead place.
