New Members

Okay. We are in dire need of active users. Where did MK go? Where did BH go? 017 left us temperarily kinda-ish! Ritsuka's computer won't let him get on here! What happened to OoB comming back? Whatever in the world happened to Sofie and BO? What about everybody who was active before? What happened to everybody?!?!?!

So, with this is mind. I think that we need to double the points earning for the 'If you get a person to join, you get 5 points' rule. I'm now making it 10 points. I even might put up a contest. So I also need suggestion over this. So with that said:

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Desperate much?

Does anyone notice anything different about the forum?

I do


Anyway, no-one I know wants to come here. And, I really want to know about those other people too. Did they just ABANDON us?

I guess so...

At the moment, we are ranked #23 for points, having 2198 points in the last three months.
#42 for topics, having 65 in the last three months.
#23 for PMs, having and average of 2800 in the last three months.
#111 for new members, having only one join in the last three months.

Ranked with who?

Between all the sites on forumotion that have Literature/Poetry.

Ahh.

Out of how many?

...

A lot.

^^

I wonder how we can get new people. Because those I know in person don't really want to join.

Maybe I could get some of my friends to join...
And maybe I could get Blizzy more active. xD

Hm... You do that. ^^

It'll help.

Yes, it will.
Clear is away on vacation, though. =/

Well... u just got one on so viola! (Now make her STAY on) Lol. JK. Don't do that. But it'd be ice to see her become active I'm sure.



I'll try to let one of my friends atschool know about this place. I'm sure he'll join.

Aha. I'm sure Holleh will stay active. /hugglesher-
She luffs writing.
She even says she may be able to get her friend, Lizzy, to join.

*claps*

Yay! All of my friends don't give a crap about places like this.

Ditto

Aha.
I dun make a ton of friends in real life. =/
Most of them are online and usually have a ton in common with me. xD For instance, the love to roleplay.

A tad bit late I reply. What personally happened to me was that I felt a little, what, ignored? It seemed all of a sudden that nobody replied to anything I posted, anywhere. Now that's just my paranoid imagination I'm sure, so pay that comment no mind unless it's the truth.

Or maybe it partially was that the level of seriousness suddenly went down a few notches. Or a combination... When a silly poem along the lines of "A cat in a hat with a baseball bat" gets a shipload more comments than something I poured my heart and soul into for hours, it's kind of off-putting.

Having written that, I feel it sounds really stupid, self-centered and petty, and I mean no offense to any of the members or their poetry, but it was this kind of thing that drove me away, so I felt I should mention it.

I still lurk here, from time to time, though, hence this post.

Of course I'll stay active. ;P
And thanks for reminding me; I still need to ask Lizzeh to join... She writes epic poems. *nods*
I'll force her to join, if I have to.

'Allo there, Sofie. o:
Long time no see, maybe.
Starr dun see a lot. (x

Aha, Holleth. xD
I'll remind you sometime.

awww, yeah I guess you may be right, although I doubt anyone is intentionally avoiding things you write, because they are very good...... i've been away awhile so haven't really commented on anybody's writing....I don't lthink you're petty for voicing your concerns.....nice to hear from you though

Sofie, it may be just that some people can't penetrate into the deeper meaning of the poem. =/
We do have some younger users on here.. (not trying to be rude or anything. o.o;; )

Well... sorry I haven't been on too much. I haven't had the time. Sorry about that Sofie. Commenting off of whomever said this, I don't think that we intentionally try to do this. Same thing with Starr's comment as well, some of us (This may include me as well) can't put our mind into a deeper set than you can, so we tend to not understand the deep poem and just move on. Hope these things make you feel better.

We used to be number 6 in all categories out of many thousands.

So yeah, we need New Members. Anyone know anyone at all who'd be interested?
