If you're still posting, post here!

Hey everyone, this is basically a life-check of the forum. I've seen it on another site and thought it'd be appropriate here to see if we need to try more desperate measures to drum up activity again. So, if you're still posting, please let it be known!

[CarolinePar]

Still here Briggs!
yet you knew I would be didn't you? exdev:

[Dr. Briggs]

I did, and I do thank you!

[FreddysFingers]

Still here Briggs. I don't quit on forums unless the board is absolutely dead or taken down. What can we do to make this board seem more popular?

[CarolinePar]

I'm thinking we could have some kind of horror-themed catch..

something everybody (as in not a bot) would be able to respond to before starting one of those topics...

maybe like "enter your favorite weapon used by Jason" or "How many Halloween movies have you seen?' etc? if it gives a *correct* answer then the forum is posted.
Failure to reply - or inability to do so means :eg: well...
then it isn't!

Sounds like a fun idea Carol. Seems like a lot of the regulars show up hang around for awhile and leave never to return :x

[FreddysFingers]

I was thinking more along the lines of pimping this board out to the public.

thanks Blue -
good to see you again btw

[Dr. Briggs]

I'd like to thank Freddy and mrblue as well!

As for popularity, I dunno. Carolinepar's idea sounds somewhat good to me, but posting a topic for it instead of just making a question; mainly for the reason that it would encourage more discussion right off the bat for new members.

The "pimp this board" option is a good, basic one which most boards do, but there are a few problems with that that I know of; first of all there's not much we have to recommend our forum above any others yet, and with that in mind we might invite trolls that way :/...

[mrblue]

Stupid trolls, we should build an electric fence to keep them out.

[CarolinePar]

what happened to them in the movies we can use here?

and why so formal Briggs?

you know you can just call me Caroline

[mary319]

Still here, just not online as much as I used to be..I do pop on here when I get the chance though

[DragonBlues]

Is it too late to say I'm still here... or back here, as the case may be?

[Dr. Briggs]

Nope, not too late so long as we're still living

[Bojangles]

I'm still alive -- unfortunately.
