I can't agree with you fully, I think there are far too many new generalized forums, forums that are just general lounge discussion. Nulled is an exception where itactually has a nice community, had good posts, HQ members etc, but some of the new new ones are quite boring, they're all the same. I feel like people just make lounge ones now, but oh well. Nulled is the only lounge and general discussion type forum I use regularly, quite a few others I visited are quite boring.
We need more topic or theme orientated forums in my opinion.
