You guys worry too much for Luca. Who cares if Luca's board is looking better/worsier. I haven't gone there since August/Sept. I used to care - now i don't. And if members who post here are loyal enough, they wouldn't be joining nor even posting (unless it was for damage, thats cool ). Beside, where is that guy Agatio? He's leaving us hanging.

I didn't leave, I just got pre-occupied with other things. If someone else wants to step in and take over, be my guest. I havn't had much time for this project lately, and it's not coming along nicely either. I can make you a typican fansite layout. But you want images for links on the navigation bar and stuff, I'm not really used to designing sites like that.

Don't rag on Luca too much guys. He was a main contributor here. But don't be psyched out about his board having more traffic...not necessarily better or worse. You gotta remember: he probably starts 65% of the threads himself, and a lot of their posts come in what I call 'forum game' threads like "say something about the person above you" or "post your pic and we'll critique you", and they have that whole odd clans thing.
Also, he gets a lot of members because he has a board for creative writing, so there are several people who go just to show off their stuff. This not a knock against the people at RPG Heaven, but for the most part I think TO's topic material tends to be more relevant (historically anyways, besides TSE). I mean how many times can we ask "What's your favorite characters/spell/weapon/etc from <insert game)?" But hey, members are members and posts are posts. Hell, on my board I only have 150 members, and starting about Jan. 5 til probably late March-mid April its gonna be so frickin dead. But its a small community full of people I've posted with on GameFaqs for 3 years.
Anyways, I think a fresh layout would really breathe life back into the board. Honestly, I never liked this layout that much because it was awful bland. But seeing as how I have no photoshop or skinning skills whatsoever, I'll leave it up to the more knowledgable people to decide.

Most of Luca's threads are all lame games which consist of three word posts, and then he writes his stories and people say how great they are even of there horible (MagicMan brought that one to my attention) Same thing with his graphics no matter how bad it is people say how great and fantastic it is. Basically his board consists of massive amounts of spam

I've noticed that as well. He gets people to join through DevianArt and Proboards. And then like DragoonTony mentioned, he starts gamethreads, etc, earning him a lot of posts. RPGH isn't that great of a board if you ask me.

(historically anyways, besides TSE) ... ... ... Ah yes...TSE... I officially nominate the original TSE thread for becoming stickied to the top of the General Board...all in favor? Good times... On subject: I feel __ meh___ about the color scheme/layout.

Well, show us what you have done and maybe other experience members with photoshop can modify it to look cool.

Who is Luca? I found the board by searching, but I'm confused about the history behind this. Can someone help me out?

Who is Luca? I found the board by searching, but I'm confused about the history behind this. Can someone help me out? I will try to summarize *Basically he was a member here and decided to make his own board. A lot of people decided to make their own boards and tried to drag other TO board members to them. He dragged a fair amount to his and invited a bunch of random people to it. There was some kind of unofficiial competition between the two boards. Anyway now his board is dying because it is filled with a bunch of idiot people and this board is picking up a bit. I was a member there but I got tired of the members and stopped posting.*

Besides the Clan Wars, which were quasi-interesting, 99.9% of the threads were ones such as: "Say something about the above poster", "Stupid Question and Answer Thread", "What are you thinking?" and other game-esque threads.

I wonder why every last one died though... Whee, this post is the 6,667th post here! Yay, I broke the 6,666 post thing. ;D I wonder who in the world board "a" is. (I was looking at the top 20 posters to see what the lowest was.)

Speaking of top 20 posters, I just noticed that I need 1 more post to have the same number of posts as Oldy, aka THIS post.
