    I'd like:
    • an active member base on the forum
    • for my members to get along
    • for the forum to still be going (no matter what size it's currently at)
    • for me to still love running it (I don't see that changing :))

    5,000 posts would be very nice. Maybe even 6,000.

    And 120 members.

    Well for myself I would just like to get a few members. I wish I knew how to do templates, styles, coding etc. but I don't. I really sometimes envy others cause of the amount of people they have on there sites and how active they are.

    I have a few sites that are over a year old and don't have much activity at all on the. Of course I really have no clue as to how to get members. I am not the kind of person that wants to spam links, since I don't like those that do. Sometimes I even feel as if I shouldn't put in my website in the area that it is allowed.

    Well anyways. What would be my goal?

    I would be Very Grateful and Thankful just to have 20 members and maybe have 2 post each day from them. Oh well let me go back to sleep and dream :D :D

    If you don't mind the referral link here, I'd suggest checking out Postloop to help your member base grow. It's been the main factor for me in getting my forum to grow, and the system there works great to get good posters on your forum and getting rid of those who aren't. :)

    The best thing for you to do is advertise on forums that have a section for it, and try to do post exchanges, buy adspace etc. As trombones said you can try PostLoop also.

    Im sure you can do it Blazing, first thing you should do is add it to your signature here on AdminBB.

    As I mentioned above, Postloop was a great way for me to boost activity on my forum. :)

    He uses ZetaBoards, so it isn't supported.
