    Maybe you can drop by once a week or something and post. Maybe a casual and unofficial exchange in posts. Or maybe you like anime and are looking for a forum...

    Anyway http://www.animegerad.com/community/ is looking for you.

    Post count is low for its age due to ups 'n downs and rules against spammy post quality.

    Need to change the theme ASAP.
    Find a theme that relate to the age group mindset.

    What is the age group mindset that I'm looking for?

    And yes the name doesn't mean anything and is related to that anime.

    If you have content (anime and or manga), then that's enough to draw in the crowd.
    You just need to improve on SEO and promotion.

    If you rely only on forum, then you need a theme with lots of blings.
    Shiny, colorful, contrasting colors, lots of add ons that gives rewards via posting, etc.

    Rewards could do. I've not enjoyed promoting. The site does have a Pinterest, Twitter, Tumblr, and some other stuff.

    I think the layout has contrast. A lot of shades and colors not often put together.

    Anime and manga content I'm assuming you mean scanlations and downloads?

    Lol, I'm not here to debate what you think or enjoyed.
    It was a sincere advice, take it or leave it for what it's worth.
    Example of place; http://sakurahana.com/forum/index.php

    Good luck.

    I made a reply and you see that as a debate.

    Well, you turned it into a debate.
    I tell you what I think, and in reply you tell me what you think which is different from mine.
    That is OK in a debate, but are we in one?
    Are we trying to prove which opinion is correct?

    If not, then you don't need to tell me what you think.
    There is no point in telling me what you think unless we're debating.

    What you need to do just take my advice for what it's worth.
    If nothing I said is true to you, ignore them and move on.

    One last advice, and again, take it for what it's worth;
    You also need to revamp your dark theme.
    Since you're on IPB, you have more choices than free forum software.


    Cheers.

    The theme of this website is pretty awful, no offence it's pretty good, and quite nice for blogging/sharing opinions and what not, but It somehow doesn't catch the eye, if you know what I mean?

    Or maybe, it just need some more design improvements.

    Something specific would make it easier to change things up, but thanks. :hungry:
