Yes, and it will not survive unless they change their strategy. I would start by collecting funds for custom add-ons that are not available anywhere else. Instead, they give out licenses for registrations that won't help.

If you had actually read the terms of the offer then you'd know it's not really about registrations as such. He runs an admin community, he wants to see other forums strive because of his love for forums and Xenforo software. He is offering it free in exchange for a link back from their forum to his. I don't think that's too much to ask.
 
I like your logo as it's basic and easy to read. Your light theme is also great, but would love to see a dark theme of the same theme or similar. Your categories are fine by me and I understand where I need to go to post a thread/topic. There's a lot of things to discuss and post about there at this time. The Forum Scenario Series is a great idea so experienced forum owners and/or webmasters can give input on how they handled a situation or would handle it.

Your forum has all the basic stuff I'd expect on a genre/niche like this, and it fits nice. The About Us also looks nice, same with important links. Actually I feel the bottom of the forum is just nice in general. Could a webmaster or forum owner win a sponsored link during a contest, perhaps?

This is all I can think of, really.

Admin-Junkies.com | Admin & Webmaster Community: December is Community Month.

Hello everyone,

I want to use the month December to get to know our members a little better. Therefore I have moved the introduction forum to the top. As well as add a Ask Me Anything forum. Here you can make a thread and allow other members to ask you questions about yourself about preferences, or anything else that comes to mind. I have also added a Forum Games subforum, where you can participate in some fun games like count games, abc games, etc. Content will be added as we speak and there is no post count or credit's increasing while you post there.

I will also be hosting some interviews which you will be able to read about in our Articles. If you wish to nominate some people you'd like to read an interview about, feel free to do in this thread. :)


Furthermore we have added an Article Management System where we will be releasing some articles around forums and interviews in the near future. We have also installed a Classifieds system where we hope to build up a nice list of items for sale such as forums, domains, websites, etc.


2023 Plans for Admin Junkies
My plan with Admin Junkies is to bring more activity and quality content to the forum. Hopefully we'll have a nice list of articles, resources and other webmasters among us. I hope to have a steady active user and content income. It's possible I'll purchase a custom theme next year and buy advertising on various alike websites and forums to drive traffic to our forum which will hopefully convert to active webmasters.


Forum Badges
I have installed a new add-on thanks to Ozzy47 (XenForo) that allows us to make badges and reward our users or given to our users for accomplishments and other things we come up with. I'm currently adding more badges as we speak, so bear with me, there is not much so far. Use this thread to suggest any badges you'd like to see and I'll add them if I see them fit. :)

Badges can be found in your profile page and will also be listed in the thread view under your user title to icons. If you think you have the right to claim a badge, let me know. Some need to be manually added and sometimes I might forget. Here you can see the member list per badge obtained.

XF Verified User Badge also available. Go to your settings and add your License Token to receive the XF Verified badge.

Interesting - do you employ intentional seo for your forum, or do you just let it proceed forward naturally? what would be your core growth strategy?

Thank you.

XenAddons Giveaway - Premium License

I'm pleased to announce that I'm able to offer a Premium License of 1 XenAddons add on. Which add on is entirely up to you! You can choose between the following addons:

  1. Classifieds Ads System: Much like our own Classifieds add on, CAS is designed for forum owners to provide an interface for their members to post classified ads (For Sale, For Rent, For Loan, For Trade, Free, Wanted, Service, Job, Announcement).
  2. Article Management System: Much like our own Articles add on, AMS is designed for forum owners to provide an interface for their members to add and publish Articles.
  3. Item Management System: IMS is designed for forum owners to provide an interface for their members to create an items database. Items can be rated/reviewed and there is a questions/answers interface.
  4. Link Directory: Much like our own Link Directory add on, Link Directory (LD) is designed for forum owners to provide an interface for their members to add Links to create a Directory.
  5. Review Management System: RMS is designed for forum owners to provide an interface for their members to review and ask questions about items in the database.
  6. Showcase: Showcase is an addon designed for forum owners to provide an interface for their members to showcase items both visually with a collection of images as well as textual content and custom field content providing detailed information pertaining to each item.
  7. User Blogs System: UBS is a User Blogs System addon designed for forum owners to provide an interface for their members to add their own Blogs and publish Blog Entries within those blogs.
  8. Sportsbook: Sportsbook allows your users to place wagers on outcomes of events with virtual cash (for entertainment purposes only).
  9. Pickem: Pickem is a Sports prediction game. Whether against the spread or straight up, you are tasked with picking the outcome of every game in a given week for an entire season.
Please be aware: you must have a XenForo licensed forum active and online. I would allow forums that are planning to (re-)open soon though.

=> For our members that do not have a XenForo license: I have one to let you use it. Free XenForo License

=> For our members that don't want to own a forum or have a different forum software: I will replace the license with a year premium membership and 3 months 468x60 header advertsing.

So, we'll be picking two winners, one having a XenForo forum, the other not having a XenForo forum.



HOW TO ENTER

  1. Reply to the topic on Admin Junkies with your current post count and make an additional 25 quality posts.
  2. Mention if you want to enter for the XenForo License or Premium Membership with advertising.
  3. Write a small review or testimonial about your experience / thoughts so far on Admin Junkies.

Winners will be randomly chosen on Sunday the 8th of January.


I want to give special thanks and a shout out to @Bob from XenAddons, who has made this giveaway possible!

I’ve been working on the What’s New page, adding new widgets from a couple of add ons.

As well as working on a site (which is still work in progress) found here which is using @kolakube ’s Xenforo to Wordpress add on. Still need to add majority of our articles though.

Feedback on the website is always welcome!
 
Thanks for your input, it’s appreciated. I have been struggling to put content on top without making it looking cluttered and bad. So that’s definitely something to work on.

I'd turn your register notice into a floating notice. I'd still reduce the waves in the header and also block-headers.

Ditch the sub-nav, you have new posts + search which are both in the nav.

I mean, as a guest, I'd rather see your nodes here than large graphics that are frankly, useless (they look nice but serve no real purpose).
