Long ago, in a galaxy far away, a company called Zoints (silly name, huh?) incubated some forums to use as a testing bed for the technology it was developing. Most of these forums were run by admin who stuck with them and are now living happily ever. However, a few forum admin are in another castle and this Mario is too busy and scared of turtles anyway. We are now looking for a few brave men or women to take over the operation of the forums listed below and hopefully come to own them. The forums are:

The Zoints global database allows any member of Zoints.com to join your forum with a single click.
What is our offer to you?
1. You take full administrative control of the forum.
2. You can put all your own ads on the forum and get 100% of the revenue
3. You get free hosting through us
4. You will become rich and famous and find a cure for cancer*
5. You can come to own the domain, vBulletin (owned) license, and full rights to the site.
What are the terms of the agreement?
1. You must use the Zoints social network (http://zoints.com/community-owners.z) for at least one year (its only going to help you anyway).
2. You must triple the number of members, posts, and threads within 90 days. If you are successful, we transfer the domain and vBulletin license to you and you join the list of forum admin who lived happily ever after.
3. If you do NOT triple the number of members, posts, and threads within 90 days, then we will evaluate your case and determine if we want to stick with you or not. If you're working hard and doing a good job, we'll probably stick with you and rework the terms (we're not looking to screw anyone, just find good forum admin who don't give up).
If you are interested:
EMail me at forumadmin@zoints.com and answer the following questions:
1. Which forum do you want to admin?
2. What are your qualifications to run the forum? For example, if you want to take over CanadaBoards.com and live in Peru, well, that's not good.
3. What ideas do you have to make this forum successful?
4. Who is your competition? What do they do well? What do they do poorly?
5. Tell us about the last big thing you failed at. Why did you fail? What did you learn from the experience?
6. Do you have any staff who can help you run this forum? What are their qualifications?
7. How many hours per week can you devote to running this forum?
*Maybe, maybe not.
