One thing you guys need to ask yourselves is: Do you want Hisstank to exist to benefit the GI Joe collectors, or do you want the GI Joe collectors here to benefit Hisstank?
When I say community, I mean the GI Joe community. If a GI Joe fan finds the site, and starts browsing around without being a member, they need to be able to find and read threads which are relevant, busy with responses, and therefore information.
If all they see is a thread that has a link elsewhere, and then a couple of "thats cool" type responses, or no responses, then the quality of this site is diminished, and he didn't find what he was looking for.
And that doesn't just hurt Hisstank, but it hurts the community as a whole because our forums are full of irrelevant threads, making it difficult for that new fan to get what he wants or even have a reason to get back into a community, anywhere.
But, if he saw that a site was referenced, that new piece of information was quoted, he saw fans actively interested and responding to it here, he would more likely click that link, see what the full story is about, and possibly sign up and comment in both places. Or at least bookmark both.
