Anyone promotes this forum? I thought it'd be popular?

Agreed, I think 96MB had a promotion a while ago but no one was coming to read the promotion

I guess VPSBoard is really the new LET these days, this forum is good, but for some reason is lacking behind in terms of traffic

Would be a good idea to suggest something that works, I guess free VPS (for a year) for the most frequent poster works?

Yeah. It seems like once the promotion stopped not a whole lot of new people joined. Even the people that are on here aren't posting a whole lot (with the exception of @zhuanyi and a few others).

This is the new LET to me, I don't think I am that welcomed anymore on LET...just like many other fellows who used to have a good time on LET...

Well there's certainly a whole lot more traffic than when I joined. ;-)

Put it that way. It will gradually grow, but without promotion it won't grow exponentially.

True, I would certainly recommend the mods to have some good promotions along the way, like a free VPS or something.

Not by choice though, really. Just sort of happened that way. Originally didn't want to attract the 'low end' market over there, as it was for general VPS discussion and not specific to any market. Still trying to break the mold of the $7 "everything for nothing" offers.

Traffic is still much lower than LET, but heck, the site is only 4 months old. I'm not trying to compete against LET. =P

I lurk everywhere though. =P

What kind of promotion do you guys like to see? Throw in some ideas and I'll see what I can do.

And Manndude, congrats! I think it is a quite great achievement for a forum that is 4 months old!

Yeah. From my analytics graphs VPSBoard brings in a lot less traffic vs LET even though I post a LOT more on VPSBoard. I hope traffic picks up though.

It annoys me that it never works sometimes. It keeps saying "saving post" but gets stuck.

Yeah, there isn't much traffic on here but I must say the people on here are IMHO much better. I was just reading this thread on LET and was just baffled and mad on the number of people who posted stupid replies. I think it's one of the better questions on LET with a lot of depth and the only thing this guy gets is stupid comments and not completely true answers. I guess LET is nowadays only for offers and guys posting about their personal problems -.-
