    Also has an arcade, plus two RPG games are installed with the site.

    Any one have a hint as to what it would be worth? Activity wise, it's not the best, mainly because I haven't done much with it, and haven't done any promoting on it in a LONG time, though there's members that have been active for years, some back as far at the 90s, when the forums were located on my, what used to be...a popular Nintendo web site. Now it get's about 75 posts...a day. While back in the day it was getting around 1,000 posts a day. With some changes, an E-Mail to all members, and link exchanges on other video game sites, it could easily pick back up.

    * Not being a wacko over there would help to as would finding new staff that actually care about their moderator positions.
    * Update to vb 3.8.4
    * Browse VBulletin.org for some more modifications like yabbseo (or blow your money on vbseo, take your pick)

    No idea of its worth sorry, but If it were mine, I'd be hoping someone starts a similar forum using the same domain but differant TLD, then when it becomes popular, feed off their mistype ins until they pay you top dollar for it :D

    Cheers
