I don't know how to help make the site any better than it is. deat, you have a perfect design, which many sites seem to lack in GREATLY, and also tons of GOOD documentation on ASCII... What's wrong? Call me stupid, but is it just that the idea of ASCII art just isn't catching on or something? Are there too many die-hard graphic photoshop-PSP people out there? That's the only thing I can come to, next to maybe that it needs to be advertised in the right places. Otherwise I don't see any place for improvement, because this board looks perfect me.

Most people have AIM, if they need to talk, they can do so on AIM. Or, I know you may not like this idea, they could use the test board on here to "PM you" and others. B.) There have got to be some other ASCII boards you could hang out on and advertise. beyond cheatplanet... Hmm... googles it

That's a low way to get members, but for those that don't complain/report the forums I guess those their forums get members... or am I off again?

It still haunts me at night, I'd call out my kittys name "TURNIP!" but alas, he never came back. But I got my mother back... oh yes... that business.... Anyways back to the board. I tried to get some people active on a few occasions, just didn't seem to work. I'll stick with this board for a long time however, for I check it out 2-3 times on a daily basis.

ASCII is popular, and the layout is really good, so advertise on other forum's plug boards or affilate with them to get more members
