Whys that?Do away with that splash page. It will be your downfall.
I wouldn't click on it. Basically, it pushes away your visitors.Whys that?
Also, not to gang up on you but get rid of the popups begging people to join. I would never join any forum with annoying popups begging me.
Yes. One pop up notification may be fine on established forums but there are two notifications that need to be dismissed. If I find a great forum after reading some posts, I'll join without being prompted. Actually, being prompted to join takes away from me getting into the forum to decide if I want to join.
I still disagree. when i see even one popup im gone. Everyone online will do the same. If you are still getting signups then you must be requiring to register to access some recourse.If done correctly (ie only one notice), it actually is a very effective way of boosting registration. See for yourselves here:

We can agree to disagree
In other words I am willing to bet that none of these signups will turn into long term quility members since they were basically forced into registering, i would have an attitude after that.
Whys that?
The notification add-on is "fed up"? I presume that would be short for "****ed up"?
Thanks. Next time you need help with it, don't PM me. You've lost that particular right now
The double notifications thing?

Did I not tell you about my buy one get one free deal? Yeah. You set up a notification, then my code magically sets up a completely different, second notification 100% free.
No. Wait. You've set up two different notifications. Seems like only you fed up there.
(Solution: Valid users will apply to logged in users or guests. Because guests can be valid users too. Try changing it to "User is logged in")

This might be an age thing (so feel free to ignore if you and your user base are 100% sure your forum is "cool") but... there's far too much stuff in the avatar/postbit area, it's a mass of stats. Take a look at this screen grab, there are only two lines of actual content in the entire browser screen and look at all the empty space:

The trend these days seems to be to hide stats and content you don't actually need to read on every thread (which Xenforo does by default until you manually add it all back in!).
Also, your graphic seems to say you're the "Vip sourse for offtopic", shouldn't that be source?
Other than that, good luck, always a tough niche to start-up in.
Check out the C in 'offtopic' & 'discussions' - looks nothing like the errant S in sourse (sic)
