    Hi, I come across with another idea of business :D Would it be possible to make a popular multiple forums? I am gonna use phpBB 2 highly modified by myself. I know it has a good feature that it can be multiple, a several forums share the same table of users, forums, posts, groups, etc ... so my main index page would be for linking all of them, and lets say, forums.mydomain.com would be the main forum where users can suggest ideas, etc ..., then, gta.games.mydomain.com where could be discussed GTA games. As long as they share the same user table, they can just simply go onto another board (auto.mydomain.com) where could be discussed cars, etc ... so they wouldn't really need to register a new account. What do you think?

    heh, it's quite confusing ... I don't really know much about advertising strategies even though I don't have any money at the moment but got them for domains and I have already hosting. Good hosting. So, it might be quite difficult to get a lot of users ... ;D
