Talisman Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Hello all, Sites not dead - just no one has any reason to post. I joined the other day - used the search button A LOT :) and now i have all my answers and i can toodle off. :lol: Except im not like that, its a bit quiet sure, but its not dead by a long shot. Here is what you need to compete. 1 - working chat! - or a shoutbox 2 - a forum update tool to shaw at a glance what has been updated and where. No good not knowing where the new posts are, people must stay current. 3 - A gallery. I want to see everyones Shalaxy's. None of the piccys work in the "show us yours" section of the forum. 4 - a small membership fee, just a couple of quid, it gives a reason to come back for the best value for money. If i had to pay I would be more miotivated to come back "to get my moneys worth" also it gives a real sense of membership. If you dont want to make any money, donate the whole lot to charity. I bet you her a dozen or so signups a week, noone needs to stay - the go to the tech section - and bugger off. Im sticking around - i like to lurk. :D Quote
Talisman Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Ok spotted the update tools on the mian site. never mind number 2. Quote
