I actually come for the ads! (: Unlike, say, every-bleeping-one else who throws a random not-interested banner ad in your face, Beasts has that nice column on the side, so you can browse for what information looks good to you. Oh, sure, OTT still has that BANNER IN YOUR FACE, but it’s not the only thing here. And Beasts is the only gaming site that has the KS weekly column. I don’t use it as much, since KS finally got the memo of recommendations at the bottom of the page, but at least I can skim the video thumbnails to see anything interesting. KickTraq news articles are interesting, but broader than my KS interest of gaming.

> @sundancer – as the one guy who’s probably kept the (forum-side) of the community limping along for literally years now, I don’t think anyone could take your comments as anything but constructive!

Agreed!

No opinion about Discord, but I might look at one if I run out of the gaming forums I check in with after a bout of painting.. So far, all I’ve seen used are its chat features, so the server has to be focused only on what I’m interested in. At least with FB with miniature painting, you can stick a picture there to look at.
