Shoutbox City Loudspeaker
It is usually accepted that any provider has its own official (or semi-official) forum, which often outgrows this concept and becomes a truly national resource.
By different coincidence of circumstances, the company in which I work had no official forum. Accordingly, it was decided to launch a similar resource.
So the world appeared Rupor.
Even a no-brainer that ordinary forums are practically incapable of not only attracting users from other forums, but even simply attracting new ones. Therefore, we decided to take a step that many people have tried to do before us: to cross group blogs with classic forums. It turned out with us, or not - it's up to the users, of whom the truth is still a bit - the resource was opened only two weeks ago, and the summer is outside.

One of the main features of the forum is a custom topic tracking system: TV. When a user tries to create a topic, he automatically joins the appropriate forum (you can also join manually), which allows you to clearly outline the range of his interests. And in order not to litter the Journal - you can simply leave the forum and watch the topic through the TV. You can also subscribe to any topic, regardless of its location.
To simplify the adaptation, we have left almost a standard forum interface for each of the forums on the Shoutbox. Also topics are sorted by tape by the date of the last comment.
In the peak of fashion and democracy (:)) on the Shoutbox there are systems of Rating and Karma users and voting for topics and comments. Moreover, if someone voted for the comment in the negative - then the latter is hiding specifically for the voter. Depending on the level of karma, partial blocking of user actions is possible. All this should help the community self-organize, but we all decided to add a developed moderation system in which each moderator of a single forum can hand out users both rewards and punishments.
We hope that the Shoutbox will find its fans - after all, in fact, there is no specific geographic binding. And we are not going to stop at what we have achieved, there are plenty of ideas for further development.
