Dmax..
Maybe it's time we gave them.. you know.. the 'tapes'.
I dont know what you are talking about. ;>_> <_<; *injects Unreal with a laxative* That will keep you too busy to talk... Seriousness: I also think advertising on Youtube would work. ahh hell, Me and Doc could Advertise on the Monster Hunter Wiki, thousands of people go there, a few are bound to show up...Of course, that means we would need a MH Topic. Why have i Not made one yet... O_O Wikipedias! we could advertise on the Wiki's of some popular game sites! And i dont mean the Wikipedia pages...i mean the Wiki's for games.

What else is there to discuss? I've already said why I want to be a mod. You all have proven that, despite the abundance of staff members, there's still a severe lack of competency when it comes to making modifications that stick/that aren't separate from personal feelings and that some mods/admins aren't sure of what counts as power abuse. We've also decided to review my becoming a mod when we have more members, which is the largest part of why I requested to be made one. We just have to play the waiting game (that we're so used to playing when it comes to the staff going through with decisions around here).

Then stop discussing. I don't know what you see with the "tapes" and laxatives, but I see spam. Once we hit a point where the thread can go somewhere, we'll go somewhere with it, but for now, I think we can leave off-topic conversations to the side.

Okay. Has any progress been made over the last week and a half since I made this topic? Has there been any progress on any idea to get new users and keep them here? What has been done? Has any discussion actually taken place about me being made a mod? Do you guys care about the site? I'd genuinely like answers to all of those questions, and not just from you Fooby.

I wouldn't mind Spring replacing Duprav, since he's never here...

Huh.... I forgot about him....
Let's see.... Right now we have Lumy, Gaffit, Random, ILS and Spat.... Duprav doesn't count since his last short visit was about 5 months ago.... We did have Raizor, Cube, Blue and GSD.... I was a GMod once too...

We have enough members, really we do. What goes on here? Next to nothing besides the casual changing Salty's words, because he's insensitive towards homosexuals. Although, I'd love for an actual punishment to go out for it, but....of course not!

We've implemented some ideas on keeping members, Sas is leading a discussion on gaining new members, although we're having trouble finding a way to gain and keep members at an even pace.
And you're really starting to get on a lot of people's nerves with this "you guys don't care about this site" crap.

I never said that, so please Gaffit, don't act like I did. What I did say is that there hasn't been any considerable progress because there isn't enough drive to actually get things done - there are some staff members who feel change is needed, yet there are those that don't which causes strife amongst them and ends with nothing getting done. Also, from what you said, it sounds like just that.

I have, in other topics, already given my ideas for what we could do to make the site more interesting. Perhaps someone could write an entertaining blog, updated on specific dates. Perhaps a humerous or informative podcast could be done once in a while. I know it's been done a million times over, but someone could review stuff in a humerous way maybe.
As for advertising, there's not really anything we can do, except go out on other forums and advertise, or advertise to friends.
"But why aren't you doing it then ILS?"
It's simple. I don't go to any forums except this at the moment, so if I had to advertise ANYWHERE, it would have to be on DA, on which I am not very well known anyway. The only people who'd see the advertisement, would be the people who already are on this site anyway.
I'll be the first to admit, I'm ineffective. I'd like to help, but I often can't. Sure, I could learn HTML to code a site we MIGHT someday be able to put up and afford, but I don't. I could join some anime forum, become an integral part of it, get to know some of the users and then advertise for the site, but I don't. I'm ineffective, and I don't contribute much outside discussing things, I'm quite aware. But I really don't know what to do to keep potential new users, other than the things I've already mentioned.
