Well Rogue, I would first suggest you install the forum 1st... otherwise you`ll never get it off the ground

nevermind.. i see that you are using "SMF".

can you confirm that you mean "memory leaks", when you wrote "memory outages".. that's a scary thought, as i am considering using the software.

i like your forum, i like British Sitcoms

i'm not sure what caused it (the script asking for more memory than the server could provide - i asked my host and even at 64mb it was crashing) but i think it was a plug in .. fingers crossed!

vbulletin is the ONLY forum script to use. If you are serious about building a good forum then do yourself a favor and invest in VB.

Kicking off a forum is hard work. I have used a couple of paid per post organizations to get a mainstream board off the ground.

I use Invision Power Board and have no problems with it at all, but as with all good forum scripts it's not free.

Getting members using paid per post works however generally they don't stay active they are only there for the money, once you stop paying they stop posting. But it's good for statistics ie you get lots of posts quite a few members, so people dropping by see that you have members and posts so are more likely to register.

In general it's more like 10c a post, some do pay 5c a post but its very rare it's under 5c a post.

Personally I would spend the money I would spend on paying people to post on advertising. But for a quick boost it does work.
