Role Playing Forums

I used to deal a lot with one of the more popular forum types to do story telling RPG's, ProBoards.
However, since they got taken over by another company, Vertical Scope, that within months stopped any and all upgrades, including one that was in the works for several years, I have left them for good, not only my forums there, but other RPG forums I visited often.

I was starting work on making my 2 RPG sites with SMF, but since they seem to be in a decline, I thought better and scratched the plans. Now, if SMF did something similar to what ProBoards had, maybe there could be some return to some of these forum types. By that, I mean besides having the showcase board, have an advertising board for their forums, where they post their advert, and people can search the board for forums they might be interested in joining. This works with more than just RPG forums, but all types.

Personally though, I feel that forums are slowly becoming the past of the web. Social media is starting to really kill off the basic web site world, since you can do a lot more with them now than before. Like Facebook pages, for example, not to mention Tumblr and Discord.

I'm just hoping that the forum world can survive the younger generation's fascination with the social media networks.
