I just have to say....Neo-T=the new Shadowsonic.

Explain, please.

[Admiral Mundane]

Shadowsonic was an annoying hoaxer who would always defend n00bs. Also, he rated EVERYTHING a 10/10. No matter how much it sucked. For you, you only defend Kyle, but in the same way.

[Kage Samer '91]

I mean from the way you constantly stick up for him (In more ways that one, it seems) and defend him even when his creations suck, people are obviously going to get the wrong impression.

[Tené]

Stop arguing, all of you. Either discuss Kyle's forum or let the thread die. If you continue I'll have to lock it.

[Hayden]

exactly, and what is wrong with my forum? just tell me so i can improve, and stop making saracastic remarks.

[Kage Samer '91]

You have no site to promote it, you just created a random forum out of the blue.

I already told you that -_-

Edit: Not to mention it's the most generic piece of crap ever.

[Hayden]

see thats what i mean, explain how it is the most generic piece of crap ever

[Kage Samer '91]

..."That's what I mean" what the hell? you told us to stop making sarcastic comments, I fail to see how in any way that was a sarcastic comment. If you can't figure out why it's generic, they you have no hope.

Also, I know bringing MSN conversations onto the board is frowned upon. But would you like to know what his response to my reply was? he spammed me several times with angry face emotes. then when I said "400 angry emotes doesn't make your board any less retarded" he replies with "OMG U ACTUALLY COUNTED THEM ALL XDDD" Now tell me, how can anyone argue that this guy is not a retard?

[Tené]

Kage. Flames are not for this forum. Stop it or I'll strike you.

[Hayden]

and I said, "just tell me so i can improve, ",

[Admiral Mundane]

He DID tell you!

Gahah, I have to sign up to join it:

1. I can't see the crap what it's about.
a) I'm guessing it's about Sonic.
b) I can only presume that from the gigantic image.
c) I can't see what's worth signing up for...
d) And once I sign up and if I don't like it, it would be a waste of my time.

2. Very plain colour scheme, not greatly attractive.

3. Banner is too large, nothing else to say about it.

4. Overly used and unnattractive generic proboards design. I'm not saying this forum sucks, it goes with the site design, other hosts are out there, also, you can actually make proboards look like those wizzy ones out and about on the web, you just gotta try harder.

Shall we try constructive criticism now?

Here we go:

1) Why? Why do you have a message board? So you can say "I have a message board"? Or is there some purpose to it?
2) What makes your board unique? What is it about your board that makes it so people should go there instead of / as well as the boards they already go to? Is there a theme to the board? Any particularly awesome conversations to be had there that can't be had other places?
3) Are the subforums you've created going to get any use? There's nothing I hate more than having to scroll past three bazillion empty forums to get to the one I want to post in. If your General Discussion is halfway down the page right after "The Left-Handed People With Antelope Avatars Playing Sonic 2 Beta Forum", I'd just as soon not bother posting. (Now, I didn't actually create an account so I don't know if this point is valid for you - if not, well, disregard)

You should have answers to these questions before you advertise a board. "Hey I made this yesterday morning so please join" isn't good advertising

Y'see, you should think of a message board like SimCity. If your town has a population of 30, you're unlikely to need an international airport. It's also unlikely that you need a tourism committee.
