I just had an after thought too...hehe
but places for Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5, and so forth can have a place to call their own. I know I would not mind a central location!!!!
Man I think I talk to much,

i remember a site a few years ago called the space empires debot. yep, debot. it dissapeared because of a lack of people on the forums. i don't recall much, but i think the people there where funny. so yep more fan interaction in bringing the fan sites together.

SpaceEmpires.org is currently in the process of being revived...nothing live yet, but in the process....

Space Empires Debot was the first SE centre and started the RP and storytelling movement.
Currently no such centre exists. SpaceEmpires.org while maintained by Hadrian was such a place but now the place is in the future.

Here's a promising website. While not a centre it is a gathering place for a different part of the community and might well become more a general centre in the near future:

BTW narf, most of those people are there

I think the biggest problem with some of the Space Empires sites was that it seemed they were constantly changing and never really updating the site with anything new other than a design change. I think they focused too much on fancy scripts when a neatly designed but not too flashy site would have served fine and would have been easier to maintain and update.

Man, maybe I'm missing the point here, but isn't this entire forum what you're wanting? I mean it has links to all available mods, information on every shipset under the sun, fan fiction, FAQ, and any question you have is promptly answered quickly and by knowledgable people etc., etc (not to mention a WIDE range of off topic discussions.) I don't really understand what more it is you are asking for. It seems to me that this is THE premier site for the SEIV community. Like I said, maybe I'm missing the point, so if you think I am, feel free to fill me in.

Well to be more specific its not about the forum and stuff, I myself would like to help promote, also maybe have an IRC channel , and generall have a more updated, easily accessible place for us 4x fans to get togehter. I think in some ways a place that does feel like it is slowly dying. I may be wrong in that assessment, but I think that is the best way to convey my view, to be as blunt as how I feel about certain web sites we do have access to.
