User blog:Duel Masters Global Forum/New here, trying to connect my forum with the DM world (again)

Hi to all duelists around the world,

i'm a bit lost here since this is my first day and activity here. It took me years to register, i feel a bit shame for that;-)

Anyway, i'm the admin and founder of 2 european/international DM forums, the second and still active is maybe known to some european players. "Duel Masters Global Forum" was created to not only give german language players a place where they can be active & support the game outside of multi-tcg communities but also to establish european and stronger international connections. Years have passed, my regional/national/european community structure changed, things happened, contacts were lost or damaged by haters who directly attacked me as the person who tried to give additional communication options to players aside of the mainly-english language (partly non-europe based) established forums and community websites.

Since 1-2 years there is sadly no regular and organized play in Germany, and DM Global Forum is on a way to become inactive. Reasons are a lot of talk which i won't write in this information message..., but here is the core:

I personally stopped to be that much active and fill the forum with content, i also reduced playing time (mainly because i moved on, watch movies, started Buddyfight TCG^^), and other users of the forum have their own reasons. My hope and wish is that new contacts are found, new interactions can be built. There are still players (or shall i better say "collectors" in Germany, but the region always had the problem of a not very motivated player base to use forums and build community structures. My work and the support of dedicated players gave Germany a nice phase of 6-7 years of regular tournaments and championships. Those times might never return..., but via the forum there is always the chance and wish to connect (again) or to show at least to the DM planet that we are still alive&active and love the game. Thank you for reading my message:-)
