Re: 4000 Members

Imagine what it would be like if they were all active? At the moment, I think only about 100 (if that), are regularly active.

Re: 4000 Members

Ooh lovely. I wish more of them were active though. If you look at the Memberlist, you can see that LOADS of members haven't even made a single post. Why join and then not contribute at all?

But yeah, cool. Thanks Ember, I probably wouldn't have even known if it weren't for this topic.

Re: 4000 Members

I notice that quite a bit on forums. People sign up, then never post. Kinda dumb in my opinion.
But yay. Thanks for the notification.

Re: 4000 Members

Such a shame that they never bring their views to the table. I'd love to see the varied opinions of others and why they think that way. Not enough debates going on...

Re: 4000 Members

I need to start posting more often. I used to be really active the first couple years after I joined, but now I hardly ever get on here. It seems like the topics are less interesting for some reason... hmm

I would be happy if 1/20 of them posted...

Maybe we should try and find out how to get this forum more active... Or at least 'seemingly' more active. Like thinning out how many forums there are, getting rid of useless forums, and opening the private forums to the public.

EDIT: Zomg! Forgot the italics!

Re: 4000 Members

I just don't get the reason for them signing up if they won't even post.
Unless their friend, part of this forum or not, told them to sign up. Do we
even have ads out there? Maybe people on other forums are "advertising"
and getting Spyro fans to join.

It's all confusing.

Re: 4000 Members

Don't push yourself. Only post where you have something meaningful to say, unless, of course, you're posting in the SPAM section.

And there's absolutely no pressure.

I'm guilty of joining a few forums and never posting.

Some people might think they'd like the forum, but then they have a look around and see that it's not something they're interested in. Some people might be busy in real life or with other things on the internet and forget about the forum after they sign up. Lots of possible reasons.

As far as I'm aware, SR doesn't do any "advertising" like the ads we see on this forum, but a lot of people go on other forums and link to this one in their signatures. It would be great if everyone could do that to try and get this place some more activity. smile

Wow, for a site that doesn't do any active advertising, its doing pretty well. smile When you first came on this site, did you imagine it ever becoming this big?

Re: 4000 Members

Hi Raven, been a while since I've seen you here. smile

I definitely never imagined it growing this much at first. We started out really small, with just a few friends who knew each other from Neoseeker and a couple newcomers to our little group. It's amazing how far this forum has come, all things considered.

Re: 4000 Members

In general for ALL message boards like these:
-Half of all members will post once.
-Half of those people who post at least once will post 10 or for a week or two.
-Half of those who post for a couple weeks will post for a couple months.
-And finally half of those people are us.

I call it internet's social natural selecton.  It may or may not be something to boast about!  roll
