I think its cool to have a site that goes along similar lines. I know only too well how much planning and effort goes into changing a site and trying too add new features but it is quite rewarding. Im a bit of a nerd that way... like how this just had a HUGE influx of traffic but we have used traffic modeling to make sure the site is able to handle it.
Believe me guys there is a lot that goes on behind the scenes to make a website successful more than plopping a forum up for people to use as I am sure the guys on UKSC are fully aware. So anyone who puts the effort in gets my well wishes.
One issue is with more info and features comes more traffic and problems... thats the tricky bit
I also think its important to set goals. We are pushing to be at 10 million hits a month by the end of Dec and are on target after signing up our 4100 th member today
Its all good fun and I wish UKSC all the best.
