I haven't contacted other forums' members about my forum though. You have to be careful with that because if you're too aggressive a member might report you to the admin.

I wouldn't be messaging other members unless they are members you know a bit, I remember a post on digitalpoint where someone hired a guy to bring in members and the guy spammed a related board with pm's and posts and everyone came to forums to post hate.

Put a link to your forum in your signature only if it is well within the guidelines of that forum and then try to be a contributing member. | ||||
