If you were to make a new male-centric forum (not specifically incel but manosphere in general as a male-only space), with their own subforums around various topics (such as each one for inceldom, GBT discussion, health and fitness, moneymaxxing, "girls ask guys", etc), which format do you prefer?
- Bulletin board format: Pretty much like this forum. It follows a flat format where replies are added onto the end of the thread in chronological order and are not nested. Quotes are used to comment on each reply. There are subforums or sections for each topic, but compared to the later two formats they are the least isolated and pretty much the entire forum makeup the community instead of separate communities around each topic.
- Reddit-style format: Each topic has its own subforum with its own community. Replies are nested and each reply are rated by upvotes and downvotes, with the order of replies based on their ratings. Early incel and manosphere (red pill) forums were based on Reddit.
- Imageboard format: Like 4chan, 8kun and Wizchan. There are separate boards for each topic. By default users are anonymous without an account, however it allows the use of tripcodes that can uniquely identify a user with their posts. Usually an image is required to be uploaded in order to start a thread, and replies aren't nested instead the post being replied is linked. When threads aren't bumped or reach the reply limit, they are archived or purged from the site.
