    Created this forum back in October last year and mean to make a thread then, but probably got distracted by something shiny :)

    The forum is in the gaming niche - console, handheld and PC.

    All criticism and advise is welcome.

    To get more members you have to advertise your site. :)

    Totally agree. We're actually planning on having some competitions soon. That will hopefully bring in more members :)

    Yeah, we're always thinking of new ways to get more members in. We've just started getting semi-decent traffic from Google and that's led to a few new members.

    I think we intend to go down the competition route for the most part. Monthly posting competitions with prizes for winners and runners up.

    Another route we're looking at going down is hosting gameservers for games like CS and TF2.

    We’re pleased to announce that we’ve just launched a CounterStrike Source server. Details are available in this thread:

    http://gameshuddle.com/Thread-Connection-info

    Feel free to drop by and embarrass us!

    Over the next few months there will be more gameservers set-up and we’re open to suggestions as to what you’d like to see the most.

    Hi Ben,
    Congratulations on your new theme.. so far it looks good.

    change the logo a bit - it looks very plain..

    Regarding how you get visitors, i have a suggestion.

    Create Rooms in Gameranger, Voobly, Garena and Gamespy and link them to your site.

    Also spread the word to the people about the competitions you have..

    You can also get new users by commenting frequently on other bigger Gaming forums.

    Nice forum. I didn't see an area for buying/selling or webmaster forum. Could I have possibly missed it?

    You didn't miss it, as it's a gaming forum, there's really no need for a webmaster section. A buying and selling section could be an idea, but it's probably not something I'd go in to, as it's not something I'd want to take any responsibility for.

    Great job logo or theme should reflect gaming more though - maybe throw in a picture of Master Chief or some gaming related character!

    Nice job though bud!
