I recommend that you put more thought and effort into your threads, then people will support you more. For example, all of my forum thread OPs had more than one line if text. If you want more support, make longer threads, and put more effort. Should you need any guidance, refer to several guides that have been stickied throughout the history of forums. Stickied threads are threads that have the pins on the icon next to them. But you should, however, attempt to use BBcodes. There is a very handy thread called "Guide to BB Codes," which I believe to be very useful when making a thread. One way to improve the BB codes is to add colors like so. It is also recommended that one adds bold (like this ) italics (like this , I believe.), etc, and you will be well on your way to making a successful thread!
