Title: BRILLIANT IDEA.
Description: or not...

I'm on this place like thrice a day for some reason. Goes to show how active I can get when I'm in the mood. >:P
So the point of this topic, how to keep members who joined to post??? Or a way to invite members to join! Why not speak to them? Like IM them randomly and you know show the imaginary fun stuff in AT. The people. Because frankly there's nothing in the forum right now except people posting. This is mainly for people who already joined. We have to encourage them to post, join the nonsense, get to know everyone. I suppose you want me to start this out but yaaaaaa know, I'm just a member, how could I can promise them anything when I'm powerless?:P
Actually I didn't come up with this. I just remembered how Justin invited me to FFF years ago. By random IM on AIM. That was weird and stalkerish but I actually stuck it out even through all the sexual inuendos. Oh wait, I don't think I was suppose to say that :lol: But really, I joined, posted, stayed and still am trying to bring some life here. Last try perhaps? I dunno. I probably have tooo much time in my hands!
Scratch that. It's probably not going to work since we're all very lazy and I'm always hiding in my closet or your closets, I haven't decided yet. Discuss. It could work... you know?
:aj:

That makes three of us. xDDD
I totally agree with you, and I think we should start doing that. Maybe have a n00b welcoming committee? xD
Hugh Laurie - October 15, 2005 07:27 AM (GMT)
Sexual inuendos were also involved?!
XD
Well of course you'd agree. You're the only who agrees with my nonsense!xD But really... would *anyone be willing to do this?
Bill Gates - October 15, 2005 08:49 AM (GMT)
I'd also consider starting an "Adopt a n00b" program, if you wanna know how serious I am about this. :P
I think it's a great idea. If you don't welcome them, why should they be here? :D
Edit: I just found an awesome automatic n00b PM hack. If you wanna see how it works, go
here and sign up. You should get an automatic PM after joining, with a simple example of what it would look like. I made it brief, since it's just an example.

Bill Gates - October 16, 2005 02:06 AM (GMT)
Yeah, we had a welcoming committee of the cookie givers, and the cookie thieves. Remember? ^_^ Good ol' days.
Toushiro Hitsugaya - October 16, 2005 05:55 AM (GMT)
Ahhh yes...... the good ol' days.......
*Stocks up on cookie dough*
Hugh Laurie - October 16, 2005 06:11 AM (GMT)
Adopt-a-noob sounds great! I will definitely include myself in the committee if there will be one. I usually have indifference for n00bs but this seems fuuun. I'll give and steal their cookies!xD
Toushiro Hitsugaya - October 16, 2005 05:21 PM (GMT)

He's the RP admin, but i wouldn't mind fighting him in an RP again...to see who's supreme. RPs these days are all about writing style, and it's one of my specialities.
Bill Gates - October 19, 2005 02:03 AM (GMT)
Okay, so we've got two welcoming committee positions: Cookie Giver and Cookie Stealer. Basically, you're either gonna be nice and friendly, or tease them. :D But both jobs must be available to help out when the questions and confusion start to arise with the new members.
I'll start an adopt a n00b program around the time of the website release, 'cause I have a feeling that's when we'll get activity.
I only have one requirement, and that's the applicants have at least a minimum of 100 posts. This shouldn't be a problem for many, but incase there's others that wanna join later, it'll ensure that they know their way around here well enough to help out :D
Sooo, sign up now. If it's all right with our resident tyrant NEO, I'd like to make a special user group to designate who has what job :D
Hugh Laurie - October 19, 2005 11:46 AM (GMT)
But I want to be in both!xD If I can't then I'd like to be on the evil side because that's so much more fun!:p
Tyrant... xD KT can get away with anything!
Kiefer Sutherland - October 19, 2005 12:02 PM (GMT)
Tyrant...that has a certain ring to it...I like it...
Anywho...I dont give a rats whether you give them a special user group thing or not...just as long as you know who you put in it...

Yay for usergroups! Now it'll take me a while to think of spiffy titles, but it'll be done..eventually. Haha.
