My forum is usually like that. We have around 30 members, but only about 8 regulars. Since most of them are from Austrailia, we have odd times online. Basically, you just have to keep content fresh. Keep people coming to your site in general. As long as you can get a bunch of friends showing up, get them to bring their friends, and so on. But basically, getting a forum moving is like getting hits on a site. There really is no "do this and it will work" method. Just a bunch of tips and tricks.

Oh, and my hosting forum is even worse. The only time anyone shows up is after I've crashed something, and even then they just read my announcements or whatnot and never post.

I believe only certain groups are allowed to send Private Messages. The reason was because we had a bunch of spammers show up and try to get people to move to other hosting, which obviously is bad news on a web host's own message board.

She's probably more likely to see the post you made actually. She's not exactly the fastest out of the gate when it comes to PM Response time but she's quite the busy person as well.

Plus I dont' think she's responded back to the last PM I sent her. Not sure.
