well blaine it seems that not only your forum is in its premachure stages, but you haven't listed any (goals, art,or options)
that might otherwise intrist your viewrs.

might i suggest you bring up art work, informative reviews of manga, music, upcoming movies and maybe some new background to look at. if you plan to keep a veiwer you need to capture their intrest for more than a min.
you need to show some passion about some of these thing you wish to talk about that includes mindlessly talking about your topics in such a way that you the reader will wish to respond.

so far things aren't looking so good so come up with some topics fast. like politics, who would be most suited to be president and why. put a little research into it.

i'll see what i can come up with in the next couple of days.

good luck

workin on it thanks forthe good feedback
