What Do You Think About DigitalPoint?

what do you think about DigitalPoint? Do you think it's a great forum or it could be improved?

 

The forum, itself, is fine as evidenced by how popular it used to be years ago. What has changed is the participants and the participation rate. This is less of a reflection on DP than it is on the overall Internet trends that are occurring. Social media sites like FaceBook, LinkedIn, Instagram, SnapChat, etc., have become the "go-to" places for most people, so traditional forums like DP have seen a dramatic drop in activity.

 

digitalpoint it's a great forum....

 

Its all downhill- users and members are at a all-time low.

 

So far I like it. Trying to figure out how to get past all the spammy posts though.

 

99% of all spam never sees the light of day. Once in a while some does get through, and when it does, report it.

 

Interesting. I feel like I'm sifting through a lot to see what is "real" and what is "fake". Because it also feels like there is a alot of brain power in this forum.

Will report when I see it. Thanks, mmerlinn.

 

This is a nice forum. I use it more often nowadays.

 

i think its great forum , almost everytime if i need smtn i can see it here ,people nice and always ready to help ,thanks to all of you

 

I think things could turn around with some updates and marketplace clean up, and better filtering

 

Not bad forum. But I think it could have more potential for current forum's situation than it has as of now. It's up to the Admins/staff to innovate and keep it going

 

I wasn't here when it was all "cool and hip". Everyone claims that the cool kids left it a while ago. It hasn't changed much from 2012.

 

LOL, I have been on DP for 13+ years and do not recall any "cool kids." In fact, this is a Webmaster/Internet Marketer forum and you spell such members by using the letters "g_e_e_k" or "n_e_r_d" so I think that such talk is just wishful/romanticized thinking on some people's part...

I still enjoy and benefit from participating on DP, despite its overall activity being way down and with or without "cool kids."

 

@jrbiz Well, people like Shoemoney. Was Matt Cutts a member here at one time?

 

I never thought the forum was too spammy back it 2006 when I first joined. It was exciting. Since then I think the admin has gotten a bit too hands on. Haven't posted here in years.
