It's a continuation of a site started years ago that split in two. Plus the older site became affiliated with IGN back then and that's when the great newbie migration occurred.

Still pretty tiny though.

Well, actually, I was directed by a friend to join.

I just happened to type in nintendodolphin.net in my browser. :D

Well actually I gotta give credit to Crash for starting the site after Nintendose when down....then I have to gave credit too Neo for making sure this site stayed up. :D

But all the members you see here stuck around or joined because of me. I mean I'm the most exciting guy at GT......what's not too like??? Who wouldn't want to be on the same forum as me?? :D j/k

Just tell your members to tell their friends and stuff and your site should get big in no time....of course you have to make the site exciting. ;):cool:

I typed dolphin on the google search and it gave amongst others a link to top 10 Nintendo Dolphin sites (you remember the top 10 craze ???). Anyways, there was for a while a race. The top place kept changing between Nintendolphin.com (it was another way to get to nintendodolphin.net) and Nintendo Nation daily. I Piked the first one and stuck with it.

Well, at EGW, I have to go out manually and ask people to join... but I develop a friendship with them so I can trust them. Hehehe. Only the best!;)

...You just have to wait for a forum to get big. Start the spark by getting a few friends. Soon, they go to other forums and tell them about your site, and eventually a "web" will bring in lots of people. Plus you must have something that is unique. Gamingforce has it's amazing selection of audio. And look where it has gone. :) Trust me, I've done this forum thing for a very long time.
