Click once, never want to leave again.

You have several sections that have only one single post or are completely empty (with zero posts). If I joined I wouldn't have many threads to reply to and I would be bored within minutes. You're using the default theme of SMF and it looks like minimal effort was put into building the site. I clicked once and I left soon after. Hyping your forum up in such a manner when it doesn't actually live up to the hype only sets up people to be disappointed, which I was.

Good luck on your forum though.

Thank you for the feedback, as it helps me very much.

I added these sections in hopes to appeling to more people, though, I should cut down on the amount, seeing how my forum doesn't have many users.

You're using the default theme of SMF and it looks like minimal effort was put into building the site.

Most SMF forums use the default theme, and I know atleast one fourm that uses the curve theme with no changes what ever, and it got a lot of attention.
I think it was called somethingsensitive.
If you can, do you think you can give me some ideas to making a better theme?

I don't believe I really hyped it, I think I didn't atleast, all I really did was post styling updates, other things, but if that hype comes from the slogan, thats understandable, and i'm currently thinking of a better slogan.

- Less forum topics that are un-needed have been removed.
- More style stuff, mainly removing things from the default stylesheet to add my own, nothing too flashy.

Also, if any mods/admins are online, can I request a post title change?

- A completely new is now available! I made a new one because I started to hate the original one that was on there, it just didn't feel right, so I thought that maybe a new, better one would make my website stand out a bit more. There are two renditions on the site that are about to be remove, but the old one might stay on there, but will no longer be developed for.
