hddump.org needs a review

[woja]

OK guys. HD-Dump.org has been completely revised Please let me know what you think

 

[Daniel]

New skin -.-

 

[Runik]

There is nothing to review..

 

[ChosenOne]

get new skin, new logo, forum icons

 

[shadow.prx]

just looks like a fresh install of phpbb :S

 

[woja]

Nah the logo is something I added myself.
As for the review... I'm thinking more about what you think about the concept of a niche forum that deals only in HD stuff single extraction - no passwords.
Also, single thread per topic/movie.

I actually like the default template, which is why I haven't changed it :P

 

[bmoeller]

The skin is extremely basic. The forum software you are using i would not advise do to multiple exploits all the time. If you have to use free software use
SMF

Also the seo is extremely poor. You dont want ot pay for trafficso take advantage of seo.
I would also advise getting content to your site. Users will not join dead forums.
I do think you are off to a good start.

Thanks for the constructive criticism. I agree that I need to get content to the site, but I just finished the layout last night so haven't had time.
If anyone wants to post, feel free

I'll look into the SEO once everything is fully operational.

So, just so I understand you, you're recommending I scrap the forum and reinstall as SMF?

Wtf are you on about i dont even think you know <_<

 

[bmoeller]

I dont know what? Seo?
Sure i dont . I have been moderating http://www.iwebtool.com/ for 4 years now.
That phpbb isn't full of exploits and constantly getting updated?
I gave this user positive advise in the hopes he listens so his site will be even a more bigger success than it already is

I gave advise in this thread and you just posted a useless comment that did nothing but waste bandwidth.

 

[shadow.prx]

want a cookie ? lol gtfo its not getting constant updates its gets normal updates like every other forum software smf is just a bag of shit

 

[bmoeller]

Software is a bag of shit?

Thats awesome . Lets set the bag of shit on fire and see if anyone steps on it ahahahah.

We will show that SMF software

 

[woja]

Well... I didn't want this to turn into a flame war :S
I've decided to stick with phpbb for now.

I've also hired someone to do a banner for me

I believe your forum's concept is very similar to that of HD-BB's. That's a forum full of people who upload only high quality stuff and encode their own stuff.

 

[woja]

True. Similar theme (high def).
Main Differences:
1) Porn
2) Only single extraction
3) No passworded files allowed
4) Single thread per topic/movie (like rapid.org)

 

[SLiMRiDER]

Allowing porn will make your forum look bad IMO, it just brings along more people who are dumb and will spam your forum. Keep it a clean place, one prime example is WBB which does not allow explicit material. There are already enough porn forums.

 

[woja]

OK guys. Made a lot of changes. The site is now a 3* on phaseDDL and Phaseporn.
I've been whitelisted on nexusddl but haven't yet submitted.

What do you think of the site?

 

[SLiMRiDER]

The website won't even load for me.
