About Off-Topic:A few months back I owned Off-Topic under a free .co.cc domain and it managed to hit near 3,000 posts. Then it shut down due to the in-activity I could put towards it and the co-owner(Zak) but now we're back with a real domain and webhosting! I have more than enough time to put towards Off-Topic so it won't be closing anytime soon! Links:Off-Topic ~ Forums
Don't expect people to sign up and post in empty forums. If you want to go somewhere, make some threads yourself and ask a friend to post or just simply create more accounts and post them yourself. That's exactly what I did for my forum.
It's just been made, advertising it is how you get some threads started. I'm going to be posting threads now.
Cheers Kaiser. Yeah, it's currently got a banner issue what won't allow me to upload a certain size, but going to be working on a better one soon.
Good Luck with it. I bet you will success because the most important thing for a successful forum is time and hard work and since you say you got time now I see no barriers in your way
