Should I? Would it make a difference

Post by Bobo »

Hi ya'll. I'm thinking about adding a forum to my site, <a href="http://www.bobodosgames.8m.com">Bobo's DOSGames</a>. It's for the 20,000 hit special update. Should I? Would it boost my hits? And would anybody join???

There wouldn't be more hits, but you should launch a redesign rather than a forum. Look at this forum, millions of hits and only ~5 good active members.

More Forum = More Idiots. Think up something that hasn't been done before, or is useful, to attract people to your site.

How the hell was that mean?

People love it when their favorite websites get a redesign. The Underdogs got 10 times as many hits the day they redesigned. And what I said about forums was true.

Perhaps you guys read K0's first post wrong... I took it as being neuteral, and the truth... he said ~5, not 5... meaning that what he said is pretty much 100% accurate.

Yeah, go ahead. I'd join up and post like mad for around 5 minutes, then realize how gay this stuff is and kill myself.

Then why post? Unless a post has any use, it's against the rules here. Please only post where you have a comment worth reading.
