It's cool. Probably one of the last best places for cool and inspired hobbyist art (I'm including games under this definition, because they should be) on the internet. Sadly they closed their general and politics forum, so it's not a great place for discussion anymore. I imagine that forums will see their revival on the internet at some point, though. I think Reddit is a spiritual successor of forums anyways, and it's doing pretty well. If only the site didn't have awful features like the karma system.
