  1. As you’ve likely noticed the name of the site has been changed from discussed.cc to xcamfan.com. I changed the name for the following reasons: 


    •    The prior name was (9) letters long and could be confused with similar sounding words. 
    •    The prior name was awkward to spell. 
    •    The prior name was an English word that may not translate well to other languages. 
    •    The prior name used a .cc extension that is often associated with spammers and doesn’t rank well.
    •    The prior name didn’t really reflect the nature of the site.
    •    The new name is easy to remember and easy to spell. 
    •    The new name uses a .com extension. 
    •    The new name uses related keywords “Cam” & “Fan”.


    The new name pays homage to the original name by reinstating “camfan”. I interpret the “X” in xcamfan to be a variable, as in one can interchange the names of cam sites, we are essentially a fan forum for cam sites. One could also interpret it to mean “X-Rated cam fan". Or perhaps “ex-cam fans” might consider this a place where they can talk more openly about their complaints and displeasure with the current cam scene. 

    Ultimately, I am hoping that it will help the site rank better and that it will be easier for people to find and remember as the name is shorter and uses relevant keywords. I don't foresee changing the name again. 

    Thank You, 
     

  2. I've added a new video sharing module. You can find it by navigating to Home > Gallery > Videos or by clicking here. Using this module one can share videos from sites like Vimeo and YouTube, and share live streams from Twitch, YouTube, Mixer, and SmashCast. Feel free to share what you like (so long as its legal). Things like music videos, cool tutorials, or movies are great starters. If you are a streamer feel free to share your stream link.

  3. We are testing out a new  feature called "topic feed". I wanted to provide a brief explanation of how it works: 

    The CURRENT DISCUSSION - LIVE FEED appears on the Forums page immediately below the chat box. The feed displays the most recent forum post, and enables one to reply directly to the post without having to first navigate to the forum where the post was made. Put simply, this allows you to read and reply to the most recent post from one interface without having to browse to a new screen thereby eliminating several clicks and few seconds from the manual navigation and reply process.

    Still don't understand? Try it out! You won't break anything.  

  4. Reallifecamfan.com was recently renamed to Discussed.cc. The reason for this change was to re-brand the site with a name that more accurately reflects the nature and spirit of the site. At its core this is a discussion forum. I also wanted to disassociate the site from the name Reallifecam as I believe that the name may have inadvertently limited discussion, as it gave the impression that this is solely a fan site for reallifecam, which it is not. I am hoping that the name change will broaden the discussion to other topics that aren’t necessarily even related to the “real life cam” niche. Similarly, I hope that with a greater breadth of topics more people will be inclined to take part in discussions which will in turn attract more visitors as new topics start appearing in search results. There are no other major changes on the radar, though we may add a few new boards or move some around in the coming weeks to open up the discussion a bit more. Thank you for your continued support and I hope that this change finds you well.

    Edit: Yes, I know that discussed sounds phonetically similar to disgust (I am okay with that, people are often intrigued by "disgusting" things). My goal was to come up with a name that reflected the nature of the site, was short, easy to remember, and makes one think a bit, the ambiguity of the word discussed and the .cc extension may illicit different connotations depending on one's perspective and interests. 

    Respectfully,

  5. Thought I'd share this graph showing the number of registrations by month:

    While I'd always like to see more registrations, I wanted to point out that the number of registrations for the Month of September is up significantly. It's difficult to pinpoint exactly what may have caused the increase. However,  I do know that RLCFs Google rankings have improved, and we recently made it easier to find the "Sign Up" button as it was far too difficult to find previously. Thank you to all of you that contribute to this community, and big thank you to Stncld316 for handling the day-to-day operations. 

  6. My apologies. I had to remove the prior version which wiped out previous submissions. There was a large update that broke somethings during the upgrade. Going forward it should be much more stable. We are now able to setup custom durations and categories, whereas previously  there was only one competition that auto-reset every month. 

  7. All, 

    I have upgraded the forum software to the latest version. It has some great new features. One of my favorite new features are "Clubs" which are basically groups that can be set to public or private. They essentially enable sub communities within the forum. There are too many new things to list, so feel free to explore, and let me know if you run into any errors or issues. 

    Thank You, 

    - A
