    Have you thinking of changing your forum design? :)

    It will probably change whenever phpBB 3.1 comes out as Chatting Time is on a feature/design freeze for now but suggestions are still welcome :)

    Ok but I think your goal for the next 2 months should be to have 200 members on your forum and then you may work on some new features and new design :)

    Wish you luck! ;)

    I don't think member count is important, more about how active the community is, etc. as a forum could have hundreds of members but only have 10 of them for example actively post each day...

    Yeah but more members you have,more people will think that your forum is very active and when you change something on your forum,people will like that,or not,and here you go!Your members will have some topic to talk about and that's the "magic circle"...Round n round :D

    Look. I know you all like big active forums, and this is totally understandable. And I know we don't have many people posting, but really, I'm thankful for the few people that we have posting. I really prefer smaller forums over big active ones anyways, so not having too much activity doesn't bother me at all. If you guys are so worried about the board being inactive, then why are you not joining up and helping us out?? I'm just thankful for what we have at the moment, which is just a community where we can sit back and relax. A forum does NOT have to be active to be considered good. Community interaction and content are more important than how active the site is.

    Also, take into consideration that forums take a long time to become a success. Really, people just do not know how hard it is to get a forum off the ground until they've tried it themselves. If you don't believe me that promoting a forum is hard work, try starting one yourselves, then we'll talk about getting a board off the ground. When Ash had Entertainment Avenue, I recall it taking him a good year and a half before the forum really started becoming active, and like CT, they rarely held contests and things like that. Some people like large forums, some like small ones. You can't please everyone.

    I joined your forum the other day. I know what you mean about getting a forum off the ground. Most people only want to join established forums. And there is only one way to become established. My forum is about 1.5 months old and its been really slow going. One day we had a miracle and 15 people logged on and made 120+ posts. Usually we get around 20+ posts a day.

    Thanks mate. That's one thing that's always aggravated me is how people want to join forums with a million + posts and loads of members, never realizing how hard it must've been for the owners in question to get as far as they were in the first place.
