Hello! The forum’s been around for a little while now, and so I’d like to know what do you like about it? This could be what drew you in initially, but I’d mostly be interested to know what do you enjoy about the forum that’s keeping you around now, and what sorts of things are you looking for when you check in?
I’m not going to answer this for myself to leave the question open-ended. The only thing is I’d like you to focus on what you like now as opposed to what you think can be improved (There’s the Feedback category for that). That being said, as a mod, I care a lot about building the sense of community in the forum, so it’s useful for me to know what the community enjoys.
I’ve been here for two weeks and have been growing non-stop since introducing myself. The little game-ified character space is great for how simple it is, I only wish there was more to do there!
what drew me in initially was the forum format because its unlike what you can get on bluesky/twitter or reddit and its a bit smaller and lowkey because you have to go and look for it
i definitely appreciate and enjoy the community events because people get to show off their interest like board games, ttrpgs, or vr stuff so its nice to find new things to try out with a nice group of furs :3
and i cant forget the macro in the room, , , , the size game :3 i like it because of the interaction between users
but overall i like it here :3 ppl are nice and we can discuss macro/micro stuff away from all the evil algorithms. i hope there are more community events in the future id love to connect and interact with the users here
I like how some artists post commission openings/announcements here, and while that sub-forum isn’t very active right now, I’m hoping it will find more use over time.
I mostly just lurk here as there’s not much to keep me coming back, but anything that’s not FA journals/submissions is by definition better for commission openings.
in general, very liberating to be more open about my interests. the forum environment lets me take more time to add to the discussion and the chat is fun for quick banter.
I was very anxious joining here, I always struggled to find the group that I fit into, especially with my incredibly niche tastes in this already niche field.
Upon interacting, everyone has been nothing but the nicest people around me, and I’ve felt more welcome than any of my other groups I’m in excluding the tightest knit ones.
It’s a world I wished I could have been a part of sooner and desperately needed.
The way things are gamified, really hooked me as well.
Personally it’s probably the fact that I get the chance to interact and meet new peeps who share similar interests to my own. Like, I’ve gone and made a new friend thanks to this site already, and even got to chat with someone who’s apparently a fan of my work, too.
this forum needs a massive data center in the middle of it, yes yes
The appeal of the forum is its simplicity: the community wanted a niche forum for macro/micro weirdos and that’s exactly what we got, no bullshit or algorithms. It does feel like a real place to go to. When you do, you know that you’re not going to be bombarded by popups, ads or irrelevant posts to appease the Mighty Algorithm God.
So yeah, keep being awesome, SizeStation and mods!
I really enjoy the “game” aspect with shrinking and growing potions/rays. It’s really endearing seeing a notification of someone shrinking me or getting a DM from someone wanting to chat because I changed their size. It’s also nice being around people that I know are into the crazy size differences.
I love the much more chill forum format instead of your more current social media with a neverending doomscroll. It reminds me of some old sites I used to visit millennia ago hahaha.
More recently, I have been enjoying participating in events with the community and getting to know a lot of you guys. If memory serves, one of the first things I did was run a raffle for growth stories, that one was fun! The I joined game night and have had a lot of fun doing so. Now, I’m running my own events (more specifically, Pathfinder games) and just having the time of my life with fellow fans of sizey stuff.
Shout-out to the staff members here who have made this site a thing and who keep fostering this awesome community. You guys rule!
It’s kinda been mentioned a bunch already, but I really like the size sytem for making silly size based interactions with others so easy but also feel meaningful. I also really enjoy the slower away the forum works and I can take a breather from it when life distracts me from being on here for a while.
Its also just really nice to have a good community of folks who are also into the same things I am and to have a smootheer way of interating with them than any other platform. I get overwhelmed with telegram and even discord sometimes, so this works a lot better for me.
Coiled Fist was the only website that was catered to gay macrophilia, but that place was…it was a shit hole; Especially when AI became a thing, and it was just flooded with that garbage. But, it was still the only place to find anything that was catered to the gay macrophile. Then I found this place through someone mentioning it, and it’s infinitely better. It’s over all more organized, easy to navigate around (even for me who has no idea how to work forums), and it really means a lot to see the staff put their all into this site.
I’ve been given such a nice and warm welcome, and I feel safe to post my stuff here. I’m no social butterfly by any means, but I do see that this community has been very friendly and open with each other. I may not a be a strong participant here, I still feel like I can park myself here and do my thing.
Yooooooooo, Coiled Fist! That site was such a hot mess, but it had a bunch of hidden gems for those who knew how to look for them. I didn’t mention it in my reply, but I also used MuscleGrowth(dot)net a lot.
I’m really enjoying reading these responses and resonate with a lot of similar things to what each of you are saying! I’m glad that the forum environment has been positive for you, and I’m really glad that it’s been a welcoming place that allows you to fit in and feel like you can express yourself.
i always just enjoy places with like minded people to enjoy a subject. That’s at least the bare minimum to enjoy here. But the little game with it is also a nice touch. -v-
^-^ Glad to hear that hon! You’ve been a pleasure to talk to ya know! I find your laugh especially charming, hon. It’s very authentic and sweet. It’s always nice to know you’ve made someone feel comfortable, and I’m glad you feel comfortable here <3
