Little less enthusiasm, its kinda creepy. ;)
I just posted. You really gotta do something with the background colors and the text colors. I can see people easily missing text even in bold letters.

 About which colors are you talking exactly? I'm having a hard time pinpointing the problem.

https://www.scaredtowatch.com/forum/...ic.php?f=2&t=5 The text before the first picture as grey on black isn't as easy to read as we have here on horror.com which is black on white. And white text on black isn't pleasant to read for very long. Its nice for a short message, but not something substantial. Between the two pictures is a line of text that is in bold, but still as grey on black doesn't catch the eye. It blends too much.

The website colors are important for mood, but the forum really isn't. I also have always preferred white (or very light) background with black (or very dark) text. It's just more legible across the platforms. Plus, most sites let the individual user chg the colors if they want.

Just throwing this out there, but it might be an idea to have a fully functional, tested, and final stage website/forum before trying to convince those from an existing fully functional forum to head on over to yours.
I'm fairly sure it's not something that'd be taken to kindly by the administration...though I don't personally even hear from them to confirm this. As a long time member and newly appointed moderator - it's not something I'm personally inclined to act on - provided you keep this to one thread, and if I get reports about you badgering any members via PM or whatever, then we will have some issues - so you've been "advised". This place has a lot of history, and is still relatively active even if only in comparison to other's I've observed. I think the thing is, forums have had their heyday, I don't really believe you're going to bring something that innovative to the table that you'll be any more, or even as much a success as this place is currently. I long ago came to the conclusion that forums, as much as I frequented them in the past, are largely dead. I've seen many try. Hey, good luck though.

How about we compare horror.com against scaredtoplay.com (And then I'm not talking about the user count)? I don't know what crawled into your behind, but I am really only trying to do a good thing here. I am not here trying to convince people to buy my product or whatever, I'm not even running any ads.

 Here I was trying to be constructive and pointing out some things that seemed obvious to me, and not to you? Different perspective and all. Though I can see my comment seems to have affected your pride a bit, or something? Not my intention - though it does show that maybe you're a bit biased. Personally, I would agree that a colour change/permanency required isn't the be all and end all...and while it's not "far from being finished" (your words not mine), but you are essentially coming to invite people to go and look at your unpainted house. Compare all you like, if you feel the need to - wasn't saying you couldn't, wasn't saying I cared. Do what you like. I haven't seen any advertising, aside from this thread which I said I was fine with. I haven't seen any sales attempts either, or "running ads" which is why I didn't post anything remotely indicating that - though you seemed to think that was part of my point. Now, as for you talking shit about what crawled into my behind...maybe get someone not blinded by how pretty their baby is, to actually read the words that I said, and translate them so that you might understand them better. I mean hell, I know I'm an Aussie but surely my accent isn't coming across too thickly in the written word? I even said that I wasn't inclined to act on this post in any way, even though I could have simply deleted it with some notion that it would "protect the integrity of our forum", I didn't. Anybody that knows me for dick knows that's not something I'd do, or give a shit to do. All I said was that I don't want you to take it any further than you already have, or to start any PM badgering...which wasn't to imply I thought you were going to, just to let you know that it wasn't on, if you were considering it. So...when you're talking about something having crawled up into someones behind, make sure your own head isn't wedged up yours. Thanks though, for illustrating how you would to be around...I think I'll decline on joining, so now you can let me know how you'd never have let me in anyway. Awww... I'm sure you'll have just the best forum ever though. Your thread can stay. Lose the attitude.
