    Replied to the thread Easy to contact you on your site?.
    Post
    Users can contact me through PM on my forums. I check my forums every day and I will address those messages as soon as I see them. I also have contact page on my forums and blogs that sends messages to my mailbox and I always address the messages that…

    Replied to the thread Policy for links in signatures?.
    Post
    I have simple rules, no more than three links and no links to website with NSFW or risque content or suspicious site. Sadly, when users began to abuse signature on one of my forums, I have blocked signature for all users.

    I think this should be ok until the member creates certain number of posts or spends certain number of weeks. It is no denying fact that a lot of people join forums to spam and send unsolicited messages. Therefore, blocking PM for new members can be good…

    Replied to the thread Running forums as competition?.
    Post
    Forum battles that we can see on webmaster forums like Forum Promotion is good. I don't participate too often but I think it helps you get some sort of recognition. Even though I created forums as a way to make money, making money is difficult and these…

    Post
    I do not get tired of posting, I mean I don't experience any kind of posting fatigue. I am saying this because I have been posting on multiple forums for almost a decade and I post every day. I have created hundreds of thousands posts on over 100 forums.

    Post
    Running a forum can be costly, you might have to spend $500-$1000 per year just on subscriptions, add-ons, and marketing. Therefore if you are on a low budget, free forum software is a better choice. You can run these forum for a long time without…

    Replied to the thread MyBB.
    Post
    Well, I have one forum with MyBB. It is an investment niche forum. MyBB is nice but it does adapt quite good on mobile devices. I have edited some of the user submitted posts (removed links) and the edited information shows with the post. Is there a way…

    Replied to the thread Market for new forum software?.
    Post
    I do not think so. There are already a lot of forum solutions, open source, premium, or cloud, but the general interest in running forums is decreasing. Forums are struggling for survival. Therefore, I don't think a new forum software can survive.

    Replied to the thread Approving Posts.
    Post
    I do not mind if my posts are put on moderation when I am new to the forum. I think it is ok to put your first 20-25 posts on moderation. This helps the admin find out whether you are a genuine user or not. But if my posts are put in moderation forever,…
