Warrior forums used to be a very good and informative place to be, i don't know what happened because its full of unattractive threads now.
To my opinion Warrior forum is rather nice place to chat and discuss some interesting things from our Internet life. But the community out there is very friendly and close, so they don't want to welcome new members as well and especially who have signatures and leave backlinks. And it's just to my opinion in some sense, but not cool enough.
If you think WF is bad you should try webproworld, the craziest forum i have been. They got this mod there who interrogates you each time you reply on a post. He's like a god there, kinda questions your intellect and thinks your reply's are worthless and thinks he's a genius. That forum really sucks. Anyone who have the same experience in that forum?
Warrior Forum is like all forums, you gotta learn to sift the crap from the good stuff. I've been very active on there for over a year and a half now and like it very much. I've also learned a lot and bought some useful courses and plugins.
I think you have to pay $20 to post a thread at the Market section, and even after payment they can reject your post. I think it's a bit too much to pay only to post your services, even risky. And of course the Warrior Room, where you have to pay $60+ to become a member, and everyone says you learn A LOT over there... This paying method surely eliminates a lot of spammy members.
Where in the world did you get $60 from? It's $40 to join The War Room. You pay $20 for a services for hire thread, $5 for jobs to be filled and $40 for a WSO. And of course, you're going to be not approved if you're posting crap. Those members with legit content will get approved with no issue.
Many people like to go to Warrior Forum to sell stuffs such as services and digital products to make money. There are lots of customers at the forum.
