    [​IMG] Could you PLEASE stop with multiple exclamation marks or ?s in your posts Fat Egg?
    My head starts to hurt every time I read anything you write. We can all see your posts quite well without them. They don't add anything to the effect or quality of what you write, they just make you seem immature and childish.
    I could set the boards to limit the number you can use to one, but since you're the only one that (ab)uses that I might as well ask you first before I do it.
    Just a thought.

    Sure.
    Devote a lot of time to it, be inventive, and most importantly, don't steal stuff from other sites.
    It happened to me a few times and I still loathe the sites that did it.

    P.S. Is it just my imagination or did you use three question marks again? :p

    about 450 of the FAQs will be other people's. As for the 300 games those are just release dates. But do you have any ideas?!

    [​IMG] For Christ's sake don't put loads of hyper advanced techno-nerdy D&D slang or whatever into it. It's gotta be quick on the load as well. Oh, and put in one of those cool search boxes like on Lycos. They Rule. (!!! ???)

    Don't make it too graphics intensive. It gets annoying for people with crappy modems, (Myself included 33.6Kbps) when it takes hours to load pages, then I just go elsewhere. Having menu bars on the side that don't have to reload with every page help.

    Yeah those non-reloading-menu-bars rule.

    I do have 500 mb of space, hooligan_inc, for a price of course. A rather high one might I add.

    [​IMG] I'll visit the site. If you spent money on it then you obviously put a lot of work in as well.
    By the way, how much did 500mb of web space cost?
