New Site - Looking for feedback

[Krumbz]

Hello,

I'm currently working on a new warez community and wanted some feedback from other webmasters.

URL:

http://www.thatforum.net

I have been reading a bunch of articles about "how to make a good warez community" and think I pretty much done everything.

- No Ads
- No Forced Registration
- User Friendly Interface
- Etc..

So yea, I'm looking for constructive criticism.

It is a good site at first look but here are my suggestions for you to get higher rank on katz.

Don't submit untill your community have more then 2000 or 3000 posts otherwise you will only get 1 star
Remove the guest registeration notification box from the top.

Nothing more from me as it is easy to point out the mistakes but hard to suggest solution for them.

BTW welcome to the United Republic of Pirates ( URP).

@Krumbz: Pretty good I like it.

you missed one more thing. Take off the following registration bar at the top, katz do not like that, it will cost you one whole star at first. Also just my opinion but usually wide forums don't boast well in using a template/style. less width gives you more room to work with. Nice job Krumbz, if you didn't have porn I would have affiliated with you

@musman1986: That is entirely false. If your site is good looking, and has good clean content, katz will rank accordingly. I started my forum with 0 posts and first 40 I submited to katz, and got rated 3*. It's all according to how the feel of the site is.

Bring something unique... I don't like the domain and the forum style. it is just the same thing everyone has been doing over and over again.

You must either fucking rule at marketing to get this forum big our bring something new to the scene. And I would go for "something new"

Make that shit FRESH.. your just taking the easy way out. When you bring something fresh & unique people will visit your site without marketing.

i think this sums it up^^^^^^

Make a forum, ddl or a blog. But make sure that people like it. A layout is probably the most important thing which will encourage your visitors to come back to your site again. Quality should also be your first priority. Make sure you have things that other sites/forums/blogs dont have!

and if you even do make a ddl site, i do not think you can make it as popular as undernation or katz or ddl2. that will not be unique i think, there are hundreds of ddl sites out there. now stop laughing and think how you can improve your site...

I gave you two options, one was making it unique the other one was marketing. I master the marketing so undernation got huge. That made it unique.

I laugh at you for making this topic asking for advice and then your replying with shit. Your site looks like shit the domain is even more shit. And you don't know shit about marketing. You just wasted money on your domain and hosting.

Make a fucking plan before you start something then you wouldn't end up like shit. Anyone can install IPB on a shitty shared hosting account with shitty forum sections you copied all over the place.

BUT i'm a nice guy so here is a plan to get alot of members.

Offer members on your shitty board money to make shitty post in your shitty sections because otherwise noone is going to post on your shitty forum.

Goodluck
