While there are many online poker communities that are concentrated around specific blogs or websites, there are also many online poker communities that include online poker forums. These poker communities, while perhaps not superior in the people that they have, are definitely superior in logistical concerns because of the fact that they include a forum. If you need this to be illustrated, consider the following ways in which a poker forum can greatly help your poker community.
For a poker community that is centered on a particular blog, consider the way in which discussions can take place. The topics that can be discussed are determined by the particular posts that are done on the blog, while the actual discussions themselves can only take place within the comments of that particular blog. Blog comments are by their very nature short and even if a person wanted to go for a longer blog comment, it would likely look strange when fully formatted for the website.
Forums, on the other hand, are completely different. Forum topics are not limited at all by the technology, just by the forum moderators. Anyone can start a topic on a forum and therefore topics are not limited as they would be on blogs. Additionally, the forum posts that people make can really be of any length and on most poker forums you will regularly see comments that are short in nature as well as comments that are long in nature. This variation is important because it allows the forum to act more in line with what a natural conversation might be like and for that reason a poker forum is far more inductive to a good online poker community than a blog might be.
Instead of a blog, instead imagine that your particular online poker community is centered on a conventional website. There are many online poker communities that are like this, which is why it is a plausible scenario. Well, while a blog might have problems in terms of communication, natural websites have problems in terms of information. The only information that you get on a natural website is anything that the webmaster decides is important and for that reason the content of that online poker community is largely the result of the mind of a single person.
This is not true with an online poker forum. In an online poker forum, since anyone can start threads, the information that is available is truly a collaborative effort and that in turn is far more conducive to an online community.
