Simtropolis Questions

[Simizen 1,086]

probably useless to make it generic for others, but doubt it'd hurt

plus I had multiples anyway, lol

 

So, to start, what exactly are the "Clubs" on this site, and how do they work? And wondering due to the Discord stuff.

 

Also, how often are some of the other menu/features used? Like, I typically just use: home, forums, ST Exchange. Though, I do imagine that the city journals tab is used regularly. Though, I was browsing through them a bit today just checking them out.

I feel a couple might do well being merged into other pages, but idk, hard to say really.

Private community.

It basically duplicates the forum's functionality into a private space. For instance, there's a SimCity 3000 community here in Simtropolis. Instead of completely isolated space like in Discord, you can get notification from posts like you do from the ordinary Simtropolis.

By order, roughly speaking:

1. City Journals: quite often
2. Gallery: rare
3. Omnibus: really rare
4. Clubs: surprisingly often, tho by few clubs (cough SimCity 3000 cough)
5. SimTopical: unused, since ST isn't TikTok or Instagram
6. Chat: often by new players
7. STEX Collections: rare, since you can access it from homepage
