It takes me in waves I have to say.
Last week was a bad week, not just for the Forum, but work on general.
I have to admit I was ready to give up and sell up right there.
I dont do it for the money but the pleasure of it,so if that goes its difficult to get motivated and thats bad fr the Forum.
Still I have picked up now and hopefully back on track.
The hardest part is getting the forum to the stage that your not constantly looking for ways to keeps things rolling, also without copying too much what others are doing (LOL...I sent a PM to Temi with a great mod I found today, another that I had installed I see is already here ..the referal one...!!! so do I use that ??...dosnt matter either way but you see my point!)
IWT is on a slippery slope but still can be recovered, I mirror Bagis sentiments regarding iwt.
Running a Forum is time consuming,frustrating,great fun,rewarding,annoying,baffling...........a real mixture of emotions.
The worst thing I do is visit others that are about the same size as mine to compare, ok if im having a good day and they are not its a boost, but the other way round is a real downer.
I was surprised to see V7n up for sale, thats a decent icome for JS. He says he is selling to go back to school, well with the income the site gets surley he could just pay one of his team to run it. maybe he has no-one he can trust?
