When seconding sites, please ensure that you use the same post for the maximum of 3 allowed seconds. Any seconds not located in your first seconding post will not be counted. Please also ensure that you include the site name or URL for the site you are seconding in your post. If there is no name or URL provided then the post will be ignored when the nominations are counted.

Also, please make sure that you are seconding a forum that has already been nominated by its forum owner. Any seconds for a forum that has not been nominated yet will be counted as null and void.

Please posts only nominations or seconds, no "Thank you" posts are needed, they clutter the thread and will be deleted.

Site Name: Gamers Forum
URL: htttp://www.gamers-forum.com
Description: A huge gaming forum that emerged in August 2006 with a domain bought for $2 from yahoo. Now the forum has over 650 members and 33,000 posts in almost 3,000 topics. We have an active memberbase of over a dozen users and our arcade with 50+ games looking to get 100s more into there. The game reviews section also attracts new gamers to come in and join and find information about games and get into the discussions. All reviews and content on the site are user created. The forum has over a dozen large modifications and a lot more plugins to make it easy for the members to post and the staff to do their jobs.
Reason for Nomination: The forum has been growing a lot since it came out. And a little push from other sites would greatly help out the forum grow much bigger and better. The members, staff, and I have worked on getting the forum to a high limit like this and we don't look to stop any time soon.

Thank you!
