Nowadays, it is very hard for young forum(s) to build up their reputation, get high traffic, and things become much more difficult if they want to beat the bitcointalk.org forum, that is the biggest one in crypto world for many years.
There are so many reasons behind (in my opinion) that other forums can not beat bitcointalk.org forum:
(1) People don't want to leave such an amazing forum (includes developers)
(2) The forum built up and managed, upgraded by highly knowledgeable admins, as well as supported by very skilled and experienced users.
Such components of the forum help it to grow well over years, and have not yet face with any odds to lose their leading position.
(3) I doubt that young forum(s) has required resources to build up such great forum like bitcointalk.org
So, if someone want to help the forum, please help to test new software of the forum, Epochtalk.
You can use open-source code to run your own forum from Epochtalk software or you can join two current Epochtalk-based forums:
www.cryptos-currencies (
Cryptos-Currencies.Com : First forum using Epochtalk)
https://coinbistro.com (
Coinbistro.com - Epochtalk testing grounds)
I think it will make your life easier than starting a new forum from nothing.
