I can make people click but I can't make them speak

Greetings fellow myLotters. Long time no see! Well I have been busy with many many things! (college, web-site designing, women etc.) Today I found my self in front of a huge wall that I have seen only at the beginning of my online earning "career" Let's take things one by one: We all know that you need referrals in order to earn good at GPT, PTC sites. At the beginning I sucked at it! In matter of fact, I think I scared people away! As time was passing I met here some nice people that gave me miraculous tips on how to appropriate try to get referrals. I did what they said and I found myself having a very respectful amount of referrals at the most valuable (for me) PTC-GPT programs. It's been a week or so that I was into designing/scripting a new forum. I had a great budget at gagabux which I promised to myself that I will spend on advertising my forum, by the time I am pretty much sure that I will never cash-out them lol! Well, it didn't work! I had about 1500 clicks from one site, 500 from another and I am pretty much sure that a friend of mine in here spend about 500 clicks for advertising the forum too at another site. The result? 4 sign ups! God! It seems that I know how to make people register to a PTC site. It seems that I can motivate them with nice little prizes in order to keep them active. But to populate a forum? Oh gosh! That seems such a rough big wall I have to climb! I must admit that I still haven't tried to spam my banner (in a nice, within the rules and polite spamming way of course) to other forums. I guess that one will do something. But other than that, do you guys have any idea on how to make people join a community? What makes people sign up at a forum? Is the design? The boards? The amount of the current population? Thanks a lot in advance for your kind help!
