Yup, we've had our news listed on the detnet sidebar for a few weeks now. Damn, getting a lot of clickthrus!

In the interest of providing cr0bar and the detnet readers with something of value, I'm going to ask this of you:

Have any of the forum-goers clicked on the news posts (which ones?)

and finally
any suggestions?

post some news about games, damnit.
the site is called Boom[u]games[/u], right? well, where are the games?
its turning into a 'hardware review' site.

Actually, MZ, I consider that mildly insulting. BoomGames was started as a jump from a site called SGN I used to run, and it was started with the purest intentions. In fact, when I started the site and opened the hardware division, I gave the entire operation to someone else to run.

Sound like someone in the game for 'free hardware' to you?

I've read the history of your site. It's pretty clear.

MZ told a funny joke. No need to beat up on him. You can be proud of your site and let something like this bounce. (Made of rubber, and all)

If only I got that many click throughts, but my site got shut down.
