I just thought it was funny that a blog called, "Thou Shall Not Suck" would be hosted on MS network.

ROFL

ROFL

Long story short:

Saw a news story on MSN.
Hit the "blog this" button.
Created the site.

It won't be for long -- I'll be moving to a dedicated site in early January.

And trust me ... I'll sharing the e-mail I send to M$ about their service. It may get me sued for defamation, but I'm willing to take that risk.

~~:evil:

I have had quite a few hot chicks join my forum from MySpace... I got this marketing scheme... mwh aha ha

I predict 1000 members by end of January.

Any of them over 18 ... ?

MM
~~;)

heh... actually, I only send invites to ones over "18" of course some of the chicks are "100" or "69" years old.

I think Madonna would be a hot 69 yo

So people come by and dont sign up whats up with that

I signed up, but haven't had much time here recently to post.

its cool im just giving everyone some shit

I stopped by, thought it sucked, and didn't sign up. :thumb:

well thats what i was looking for

thanks

Good luck with this effort. But your plan has a giant flaw in it. There is no central theme to attract people to your site. "Let's all hang out together" doesn't cut it, in terms of giving people a reason to spend their time visiting a site that has no posts.

If you are going to try to launch a website/discussion board, the key is to find a thematic niche. ChiefsPlanet's theme is obviously the Chiefs, but even that wasn't enough to sustain PigSkinPark (a former "competitor" to ChiefsPlanet).

The key is to find a topic that interests people, and find one that has a void in the internet message board world. ChiefsPlanet was successful because it brought a few dozen disgrunted Chiefs fan/posters from the KCStar board here enmasse. They created an actual community over-night. Theme=Chiefs, void=disgrunted.

"ChillPlace.net" might be a "cool" domain, but it needs more than a "sit back, relax and chill" theme. Unless you are talking about refriderator repair there it's not enough of a theme. People do that at message boards all over the net already (see ChiefsPlanet). You need to find a reason for them to switch.

What you are trying to do is quite difficult.

I wish you the best of luck, and hope I've shared something that will help you down the road.

thanks for the feedback

If all of our n00bs would take their stupid shit over to your site it will be as big as the Planet in no time.
