Any visitors seeing this first post: register and tell me I'm an idiot because I'd never get users to a new forum.
Otherwise, register and tell me HOW to get new users here.

I see it, and it doesn't look too bad. I also have no clue how to get new users to your forum.

Hey, congrats of the new forum Ten. I like the idea of having a forum solely dedicated to chips & gear since that generally is what I log onto other forums to check out/discuss. You should incorporate some subliminal messages to get everyone who comes here on board with your custom Paulson buy! Seriously though, the best way, I suppose, to get people here is to do just what you did on 2+2. . . post about the forum. Of course, you run the risk of irking the other forum's mods, but as long as your forum isn't exactly the same and you don't advocate their users defecting per se, you should have some grey area to work in. Make sure you register with the usual search engines, etc. The web adress to this board isn't the most memory friendly, so at first people will have to get here through links. Stay active and make sure there is fresh material on a regular basis and I'm sure that the board will be successful. Eventually, you may want to do a redesign (egyptian themed perhaps  )

Hey Ten.
I like the layout and people will eventually come. Making this board the premier place for updates on your group buy would also be a good idea, but you obviously still need to post on the other sites. I am sure everyone will flock to this site after seeing the links and hearing from others about it.
Good work
