Agreed. That has to be one of the worst boards I've ever seen!

Just how many pop-up adds are needed???

I downloaded Invisions PowerBoard and feel it is a far superior board.

The only thing I liked about your entire site was clicking the X in the top right corner of IE6.

I'm starting to feel sorry for WNA. Leave him be.

No.......

but you're all picking on him

It won't do his confidence any good.....

Stuart W · 24-08-2003, 20:27

Might improve his web design tho

Or at least encourage him to get shot of that awfull "FREE" board which opens a whole new browser for an add with every click!

It's an unwritten law that you never boast about your own web site, the punishment for breaking said law is to have your site picked apart (no matter how fantastic (or in this case, crap) looking it is)

edit: spotted this on his "site" too

I'm willing to bet my ears that he hasn't had the name "gaming world" trademarked (chances are someone else has though).

Just to point out, you did set yourself up for a fall, by saying it was good.

Is it your first attempt?

poolking · 24-08-2003, 21:24

WNA, a little suggestion for you, if you can't take critiscm then don't post your site.

MadGamer · 24-08-2003, 21:25

IT WAS MY FIRST ATTEMPT YOU KNOW!!!!!!!

. and of all the websites ive visited of people i don't know well they're pretty CRAP as well!!!!!

*To WNA. It's a great start. Most of the guys on here work in I.T or related fields. Many of the others spend all day on the net and are all knowing, or like to think so.

Don't worry too much about people being hard, just learn from any constructive comments and ignore the others.
From what I've seen on here, most of the members are here to help each other. Take it on the chin. I mean, my site's tosh and I'm NEVER going to come on here saying 'come look at mine, it's fantastic'. In fact , I'm not telling anyone where it is

That's asking for it. But I'm learning and picking titbits up as I go along.
Do the same, mate. You'll be fine.

Just a thought, you may have copyright, which you do by creating the site etc and don't need to register it to have legal rights, but the trademark is a different issue completely. I'd get it sorted.

Get the bee out of your bonnet and read my post. I'm giving you some friendly advice.

As for the forum, i SIGNED UP to a website that provided it for free there is nothing i can do about the banner ads, ok the forum comes ready made like that there is nothing i can do. i mean if i had the money i would pay to get rid of them but i don't for the moment.
