hey, so when you signed up in january, you didn't post anything? no "hellos", "pics", "bite mes"?
also, you need to give a fairly good reason/hook for regular users to migrate. discussion is already going on here, why go there?

The only reason that I had created an account in January is because someone sent me to look at some of the For Sale/Trade items to give them my opinion and I needed an account to look and ask other members about it. Then school happened and I lost all free time.

And then yesterday I was told to try this. I honestly don't know about any "hellos", "pics", or "bite mes".

As for going over there from here, it would only take a short amount of extra time to help this forum take off. We've been needing users who aren't idiots, as some are, and from what I've seen in such a short time, these users are not. If I shouldn't have posted that advertisement here, I understand and won't be doing that again.

You clearly haven't spent enough time here.

Or rather, he's spent just the right amount of time. Stop now, before your blissful ignorance is rudely shattered.

I'm not going to join your forums because I simply don't care... but I will tell you that from experience, you can't expect your forums to hit it big in a short amount of time unless your content it unique.

Like it's been said... why would I bother going to your forums if I can go somewhere that already has plenty to talk about?

Unfortunately (for you), there are thousands of forums on the internet with the exact same content as you have.

Also, I can tell you that for a site with little activity, you have too many forums. People stumble on to the site and see that each forum has a dozen or less posts and think that the site is a POS... if they do actually visit it, they have to go into new forums a dozen or so times to see all the posts... it's annoying to have to check a new forum just to see a few lousy posts.

Finally, if you want interesting conversation... start it.
