For the active forums, I'm in all but Dracon & alt.fan.dragons ... in which I just chose not to be in for now. :)

as for the rest of all the forums, so many have died, it's quite sad.

Still, great job finding these forums Sivert.

should be noted that draconity is also for dragonkin. not exclusively, but you know what i mean. i am on there! you could reach me, but i hardly go there anymore :P i don't remember seeing you, Drakel.

hm... let's see... Dragnix looks familiar, can't place the name... i've seen a few of these before. i used to be on Dragon-Realms. that was a good place, then it just vanished. apparently, according to some people, dragon forums and dragonkin forums have this really strange proclivity of just vanishing.

nice find/s, this must have taken quite a while.

I'm on Draconity. But right now I'm trying to solve some real life issues. So I'm not active.

It came into my recent understanding that Draconikia's forum recently died. Leaving SBD, Dragnix and Everything Dragon as the now top Dragon Discussion/informative forums left.

I find it sad how nobody wishes to discuss on the topic of Dragons anymore, as do I find it sad how there is one less dragon forum community out there.

I've moved draconika to the long list of sites that are gone. Sad to see another forum going into oblivion.

It is sad to see it happen but that is the nature of the beast. I used to belong to many forums, the like of which have all passed, but during their prime they brought in members from other dying forums. It is a cycle, sort-to-speak.
