Title: A new month, a new wave of activity.
Post by: Daddy on November 30, 2007, 11:36:41 PM
Alright Boyagers, it's a new month; let's make this a great month.   As you all know, our activity has beeen low recently.   I think we can get it back up.   One problem is that a lack of posts makes people post less since they have less to reply to which, in turn, makes people have less posts to reply to.   This creates a spiral effect of no posting.

A simple solution would simply be to reply to 5 or 10 extra threads, even if you can't find any actually new stuff to reply to, to generate more discussion, this make people reply to you, which might make 2 people reply to them, and then we have a nice boost of activity.  If we have everyone doing this, it will work out fine.   

As for members, if you know any of our lovely Boyagers who have left or have just gone MIA and you know where they are, try getting them back to us.     I'd also like to remind you to use some nice big, attention grabbing Boyah sigs at NSider2 (http://nsider2.com/forums/index.php?) and NSiderForums.net (http://nsiderforums.net)(The latter of which Snorkel and I are admins so I'm willing to pretend not to see some slightly more aggressive techniques) and make some posts that might bring attention to Boyah.

I don't mean shit like "lol JOIN BOYAH FUKEN NIGGERS",  I just want some stuff that might bring attention, and maybe some threads like "What is Boyah?" where some one can post a link, and we get get some guests and, hopefully, members.

Thanks,

--JMV

Kay.  I've noticed I barely post any new topics anymore. wry
I'll try to post more.
For you guys.
Attention grabbing sigs?  I have to create my own?  Or is their some somewhere?  And I already pass off hints to Boyah in most of my posts on the other two forums.  But I'll try to make it more frequent, sir.  Without it sounding too desperate.

Also, it doesn't hurt to go back a few pages and make a legitimate bump that can and will spark more discussion. If you just say something like "lol" or "I agree," well, that wouldn't be acceptable.

I know you guys go to other forums, unlike me, so most all of you could advertise everywhere.... but for whatever reason, it seems you all refuse to.

Then find some people that aren't complete idiots at PSU (if that's even possible) and write it everywhere in your nearest library.
