Hello,
As most of you know, I founded this website somewhere in 2013/2014. It grew from a personal blog to a website with a decently-sized community of fantastic people from all over the world. That's what I'm most proud of.
Cardzreview, just like the hobby, in general, has not progressed much last 2-3 years and that's very sad. I feel like as a community there's much more we can do to influence publishers and educate new and old collectors. Our blog needs more articles and more guides. We need more sponsors to help the website operating cost.
In order for this project to grow, we need a new face to lead that's not me. Personally, I'm not so much involved in collecting anymore.
I'm opening this thread to see if well-known community members would be interested in taking over the project and leading it forward. I'll still be happy to host the website and do technical back-end work. CardzReview is not my project, it was always our project, so I'm asking you guys, how can we make things better?
Ideas to improve:
Ideas for funding:
Also if you're interested in being in charge of any part of the project, just let me know what you can do.
I'm personally nominating people like @dantzig @AndyR @Makhno @LFC1892 @Ceesmk @Suisse @Danju @Kacper13 @SubZero (I'd also mention @Caniggia but I know he's busy rn) and many others well-known members as potential people who can either join efforts and take this to the next level with ideas or their involvement and. Sorry if I missed somebody out, there's just way to many great people here so @all

Ideas to improve:
- More articles/guides on the blog
- More reviews and news about collections
- Sponsored giveaways for forum members
- Create templates for reaching out to publishers
- Publishers should send community members samples so they can review the collections and share it with community
Ideas for funding:
- Google Ads
- Paid sponsors (like shops, publishers)
- Donations
- eBook
