This place crawls compared to what it used too.

Pity too...

Some suggestions:

Open up more of the private area... that will attract people.

Actually get the IRC channel back up and invite people.

Create a tutorials database (downloadable).

Create a software index.

Put some catchy words and configure a robots.txt file.

Update IPB or move away to something more developed as this version is heavily outdated. Thus huge security holes.

Create a custom individual skin that doesn't make the forum look generic.

After all this ask your members nicely to help increase traffic here by putting a button in their signature on other forums.

Link exchange with a few more sites.

Open up some art competitions etc.



Just a "small" list of suggestions.

yeah sad to say that i think a lot of the old school have moved on with their lives a whole lot...other things have taken greater priorities.

i still try my best to answer any questions in the video/audio forums which i'm supposed to mod but i just dont have the time to make the tutorials and posts that i had when i was employed 12+ months ago...self employment has really sapped my time and my energy. The comments krip/iBarc0de makes are all valid but sadly we dont seem to have the time to implement them.

:(

Awai.

How about finding/promting someone to help you. Im sure there is someone here quite capable of lending you a hand doing more stuff for the board.
