permissions are easy. Just check a few boxes. I can set it to where only i can post and no one else can reply. But your right but for a different reason. The problem with using the forum is I can't post a whole article in one reply. I am going to change that and add some kind of article/news system.

If you ask me, I don't think you actually wanted your forum to become busy: you changed it over so many times that it seemed like you were more interested in trying out the various programs, more than anything else.

Exactly actually. I have been tryign to figure out what works, what doesn't, ect.. I never had the bandwidth to handle any real traffic. i never planned on much traffic.

When I look at the traffic on my site, I see a minimum of activity, and even at $5/month, I don't use more than 3% of the total bandwidth allowed, but that's fine, because the website still does what I intended it to do.
If anything, I'm thinking about adding an ad banner, to help cover the $5 per month, but I don't think it would even be worth the time and effort, especially considering how many people actually stop by the site: it'd probably be more aggravating to the users than anything else.

Most paying advertizers require a minimum of 1000 visits a day. I don't think an ad would do any good for you now. Give it time though.
