I had started a domain thing on my forum "free domain for certain referals and posts" .

and then the crap Credit Card started giving probs then I couldn`t register domains :(

Most people like active forums with a bit of fun in posts (friendly ppl). :D

I created a forum for my countries web developer`s but rarely anyone is interested as it`s new and has less member :( ....

hmmm choose for a .com domain if your visitors are not that much into web. as most of people would go typing a .com .
