    Looks like a very nice site Avguste. Max Pen here, I would like to join but the verification image won't show up on the registration page.

    yea, I thought this might be a problem.
    Just removed the verification image until I fix that.
    try again please and my apologies about this issue

    I am switching from verification image to a 1 question verification. Let me know if you have any problems and I hope to see you there

    Good point.
    but as much as I can add content, the best content comes from members.
    The more active are members, the more interesting the content :)

    My take on communities is very simple: a community grows thanks to its members (registration and participation)

    But if you dont have content you wont have members which will stop them from posting content. You have to start it off.

    Very true as well. Myself and another member do that.
    If you look at the different boards, you can see that there is content to discuss. For example, if you go here , you will see a poll about music games. Here are threads about RIFT. Here are threads for Homefront. And so forth.

    I am obviously looking to add more games and I am specifically looking to add a browser game. And obviously any games suggested will be considered as well.

    Another point to consider is that I am not looking for GamesOverview to cover every available game, but selective games.

    Hmm. you are the 2nd person to tell me that. Guys from Advertise HotSpot checked it out and it works for them. It works for Max as well.
    What are you getting? any error?

    Most probably your host, I recommend you move if this keeps going on

    never had any problem with the host. And since other people are able to access it, I don't think it is a host problem.
    But I am still messaging my host to see what they say

    Host would be the only reason when more than 1 person is having issues. Most likely your host's firewall.

    Ok. My host just responded:

    "I've checked your DNS config. Since your account is quite old, there was a record to an outdated nameserver which no longer points to this server. A recent change on our part to the name server records may have caused an incorrect record to propagate to some of your users.

    The issue should resolve itself in a short amount of time. If your visitors want, they could try clearing their DNS cache with:

    ipconfig /flushdns

    in the Windows command prompt. Please let me know if there are further issues.

    NathanHow would you rate this reply? Poor Excellent
