    The main page...

    It's not very active, and thus gives off a bad impression. I don't know if you ever planned to do general gaming/computer news, but even if you don't it would be wise to keep the main page a little more active than it currently is.

    Just my 2 cents.

    And as a side note... is there an option to make it not take me back to the thread list after making a post? It's a tad annoying, I'd like to be taken to my new post after making it rather than the forum/sub-forum index.

    Well actually we keep the front page up to date. Like the recent 8800gt post and others before it. Currently their are only 2 people that we have the do put things on the front page. Both of us work full time jobs and we put as much info as we can and stuff that is given to us rather than steel it from other sites.

    Oh and just my $.02, If you would have looked at the dates there are 5 topics going as far back as the 26th of last month. I would think that is keeping things up to date.

    Keep your eyes peeled other in depth reviews are coming up. SirBaron is working hard on those.

    Aye, it's not dead, I just said not that active... mostly in terms of stories per day, as I did look at the dates on all previous posts listed on the main page. I wasn't trying to be an ass or anything, just wanted to say that by my standards it could use a little more activity.

    As far as getting news stories goes, and I'm sure you know this already, sign up for press release mailing lists from various manufacturers, publishers, etc. And who says you have to steal news from other sites? If you see something neat somewhere else, It's perfectly respectable to point your viewers to it through a helpful post containing a small quote of the source and a link to it.

    Alrighty, I'll keep an eye out for 'em.

    Re: The main page...

    I'd love to keep the frontpage upto date, but each review i do usually takes about 10-20 hours of solid work . That with a 40 hour a week job, and stuff i do for fun. I mean i do have to do something besides work . Leaves little time for the front page.

    Like i said I'd love to help keep it active and i can agree it does give a somewhat negative impression however i can't sadly. :(

    It shouldn't be taking you back to the thread index, I thought I reset that for everyone... Lemme go look again :/
