    Hiya, im selling my gaming forum which i was going to develop.. It come's with the IPB software and the domain name..

    The domain name is PcGameTalk.com
    It's nearly 2 year's old and is reg'd at NameCheap

    http://www.pcgametalk.com/oldipb

    The software is IPB and has well over 5,500 members
    The forum's are pretty quite because im developing them, but we have just over 5.5 thousand members registerd with us, 1 bulk email should hopfully see all of these members come flying back... There is little post count because when the DB was being transferd small problem's accured and we tried and tried to fix this but there was afew error's.. So we tried uploading the old DB but relised it was over written by the new DB which has a few hundred post's..

    What's my asking price ?
    Well since we have little revenue or hit's, (no ad's where placed on this site)
    Im not going to be asking alot for it..

    Starting Bid: $80.00

    Buy It Now:$600.00

    Are you able to provide more information on why the site appears to have a large number of members, but barely any content? Doesn't add up.

    Okay, as stated in the first post, We was changing the DB to a new server and installing vBulletin.. Also switching IPB into vB.. So we went to work, something went wrong with the DB (im not a programmer) so i got my programmer to fix it, it went wrong and wrong and wrong.. We saved over the old DB and then we had to upload the DB with 5.5 thousand members and 100+ post's..

    Again i did stat this in my first post

    Not surprised... usually when a seller starts yelling at his potential customers you know something's up.

    The cache from September should have rang alarm bells. To have added 1k members in a month when the site wasn't even active ...

    Ah well, hope the buyer is happy with his purchase.
