I know it is modified default skin, although I like it.

Howdy.

Recently I have been looking for some staff to help me moderate these boards, anyways, I have already got a few staff, and my boards are finally ready for release. They are not even close to be completed though, I mean, what boards are? These boards have contests quite a bit, and you can win some kick-butt prizes. Currently we have a contest going on to win emails & hosting. Kick butt hosting.

Contest Details:
Howdy!

Welcome everybody to the grand opening of WazTalk! With this grand opening in hand, we would like to host a competition with a prize of our best winning feature, the hosting plan. Now, this isn't no ordinary hosting plan, you may think it's just another one of those cheap ones, but no! This is one of the best hosting plans you will be able to find over the net. With it's 3TB bandwidth and tones of storage, we could host any site for you! 10 of these plans will be given out per year. Note: You will only receive FTP access. We can add emails, databases, park domains and such by ourselves, we will not hand out panel access though. For all those things, I need to be contacted to set it up. Anyways, in this contest there will be places ranked from 1-3, contest details are stated below.


The contest will reward 3 people with prizes. Only one person can obtain the grand prize of the hosting. Others will win other prizes witch are stated below, here you can find the prizes given for certain places.

1. The ultimate hosting plan
2. Up to 10 free emails, <address>@waztalk.com
3. Up to 3 free emails, <address>@waztalk.com

All users will get default features given by winning a contest, such as the usergroup "Contest Winners" and access to the special board. Anyways, for the moment there is no deadline, however the staff have a number in mind, so when you reach that you will be contacted if we use that. Anyways, let the referrals begin!


Note: Once you have 10 referrals contact us, 20 referrals contact us, 30 and so on. This may end before 10, may not end until 100. You will see, also IP's will be logged.

Seeing as you just admitted it is in default style, I have nothing to really say there other than that the default style is pretty off putting for guests as it is similar to too many other such forums.

On some other notes, I will say you need to post more in your forums. Too many areas have 0 posts, which puts many guests off joining, and too many others have 1 thread and 1 reply in a forum, which is also not good. You will NOT get activity by trying to get members to post for you, sorry.

BB code is okay. Nice that some has actually been added.

Smilies are standard, nothing else to say.

I do like how you have tried somewhat to start interesting discussions, this is a good step to make so well done.

Your FAQ and images seem standard in general, need at least some type of customisation.

You really need a proper logo which goes with your forum. Seriously, the default does not work with ANY forum other than the official site's support forum.

It's still sorta a work in progress, don't worry things will change.

That's good. Does that mean you'll change images and add more topics for your members to discuss then?

It sure does, im actually installing a skin I found on another site while we speak. I will modify that eventually, aswell as a few other things. I am looking for a graphic designer though, I want to use custom ones, not bulk straight from vbulletin.org

Would you be interested? I might also be interested in hiring a moderator, not sure.

Sorry, already got enough to do. But I will release BB code here at vBulletin.org if anyone wants it for free.

ok.. here goes.

Way too dark for me.
what is the site about, when anyone visits your site their should be something telling them what the site is about, a short tag line or an image that people can relate to. At the moment all I see is a dark grey standard forum, nothing special and just like the other billion forums out thr.

After a second look I see no logo and again I am none the wiser to what your site is about. If its general chit chat on all topics, let people know.

Hope this helps.
