I'm interested in knowing what are the best ways to insure a successful forum?

Aside from adding spam controls, which I have done. I added the plugins fassim, and 2 other spam controls for the board. I hope they work. Also, with plugin in which there is a timer, I seem to get a lot of emails of people trying to register over 1 minute long. It's set to deny anyone over the 15 seconds:

Hi there,
Someone from the IP address 200.53.119.154 tried to register in 153 seconds when the minimum registration time is 15 seconds.
-Registration Time Plugin

My forum is for people interested in search engine rankings and SEO. My site has a link directory script which helps webmasters get links back to their website every day.

I just tried to register, and it denied me. You are going to have to raise it above 15 seconds, or you will not have any success at all.

Now I just tried again, and it denied me because of being under 15 seconds.

15 seconds? What do you expect to accomplish with that? Get rid of the timer.

I also don't understand your header... You have a bunch of "links" in that image but they don't go anywhere.
