Deception is an online community which was originally based around Computing & Graphics, although during the process of configuring the forums, it was decided that our community shall attempt to keep this as the main focus, whilst also catering for a bit of everything else.
Ultimately, we just want the forum to be a nice place to hang out. We are looking for new members to help kick-start the community, if you're looking to learn, create, meet new friends or even just become the arcade champion, Deception is for you! We're just your average forum, right?

I have to think you're spamming your forum on ours?

If you want my advice, get a faster hosting package, your's drags as does the hosting companies own site.

PHP Code:


			
<!-- Loading Layer -->

<div id='loading-layer' style='display:none'>

  <div id='loading-layer-shadow'

    <div id='loading-layer-inner'>

close your tag after shadow this could cause issues as you expand the forums.

SEO is a must

PHP Code:


			
forum/index.php?showtopic=2

Doesn't tell robots anything. Try investing in VB although it's pricey it is the best and easier to promote. You have to be sure that people are finding you.

You will never tempt people from established forums by spamming it will just make you look desperate, you have to have something to offer that other places don't. Also all your sections say private so people can't view the action unless they log in, not a good move if you're trying to attract new members.

Good luck
