Default I need help on this!! Really I Do!!

Hello,

As many of you have known, I have created a social forum as a part of my site, (listed below in my signature). I have gotten no visitors except for those blasted spammers! You know the type: They post prescription drug links a mile long, or have poker or other various gambling links. As many of you should also know by now, I am a regular member here for at least a year if not longer, so hopefully that should protect me from anyone's thoughts of my being a spammer....(besides I don't even know how to send out mass spam!)

I need help specifically on getting people to my forum, and this is where you all can help...

You'll benefit from my site's social forum because it will be a place for like minds to come together and chat about their animals that they love. You will also benefit by not only being at a place where everyone loves to talk about animals but you will also be able to cultivate long lasting friendships with people that are on this board that are here at stevepavlina.com, that you haven't met here but will meet at my site. You can add those friendships in addition to the friendships you already have, both online and in person!

I need people who I know will not spam and here seems to be the best place! please don't think this is an advertisement type of spam, it isn't, and I will explain why:

I am wanting to add my forum (as well as the rest of my website) to my resume. I think it would help for the fact that it could possible help on my technical animal experience. You see, I am studying to be a veterinary technician, and have no experience beyond classroom book-work experience. I came up with this idea a few minutes ago: The title that would go on my resume would be "Veterinary Forum Administrator and Manager", and I think it would work...

BUT...

however it wouldn't look very professional on my part for a veterinary practice hiring manager to look at my forum and find it completely empty of posts and people. There would be nobody's posts to "manage", if you get my drift. I just don't think it would do very much of a service. Thats where you all from stevepavlina.com come in to help:

All I need you to do is join my forum, search for the right categories that you're interested in and just start posting! Right now I've only got 10 people registered on my forum. Of those 10...a whopping 8 are nothing but spammers! I have had to block all of them! It is really frustrating!

Just for the record, here are the forum categories:
