If you're serious about this, I think you're going to need something a bit more compelling to offer. Another web forum is unfortunately not very interesting - and I'm saying this as someone who happens to believe the web needs more general purpose forums to compete against social media. It's like creating a new email client, it's going to take a lot to even get noticed. If the point of a startup is competition and disruption, well, you're competing against all of social media and the "anti social-media" imageboards, and I don't see where the disruption is.
It's difficult to tell who you're trying to appeal to with this. Your front page has clip art featuring nothing but upper middle class white socialites, as if you want to present this as a hip SV style startup, yet you're also clearly trying to imitate 4chan/8chan in a number of ways (calling yourself 'schan', naming your paranormal board /x, etc) suggesting an appeal to the lowest common (and not necessarily worksafe) denominator. Who is this site for anyway?
You have some badly scaled artwork, and none of the links in the footer appear to work because of multiple js errors. All of this suggests that you posted this site before it could even be considered finished. When I try to delete an arbitrary post I get a JSON parse error, which suggests to me you might have an unhandled exception being echoed somewhere.
I'm not saying it's a bad idea, but I think perhaps you should perhaps come back with something a bit more focused and complete if you're going to call it a startup. Or just open source the code and let people play with it. Or don't call it a startup.
hi, thank you for your opinion, when you say ' I try to delete an arbitrary post I get a JSON parse error'
is not a parse error, is a error because you are not owner of that post, i handled that error. the message for that error is "Only the owner of the group or of the post can delete post" so i do not undestand whay you say is unhandled exception.
this is no imitation 4chan/8chan this website use the concept of the chan forums but is not a copy of them, i reinvented a old idea and improve it, like facebook reinvented myspace or like google reinvented the internet search engines.
when you say 'none of the links in the footer appear to work because of multiple js errors' is 'not multiple js errors' that is a lie, is because i have this "<a href="#">name_link</a>" at href i have # is for that not work yet
always when a startup start begins is no necessary to have all complete, have you ever read some essay of paul graham?? i invite you to read it
