Post subject: Why is it that... |
|
|
We have several new members, here at [i:Vibes], every day pretty much. Yet almost NONE of them post AT ALL, never mind become regular contributors to the forums.
Why is this?

Because we're too lazy.
I joined a few months ago but all the action is at TA. I can't connect there, so i thought drop by but no one is here. Hell, even Ian is there too.

| I think most people who are online on i:Vibes just browse the news and info sections - then head on to TA for discussions.

Lazyness and not enough hours in the day would account for some.

This board is pretty tame compared to TA or even trance.nu, or other forums not trance-related... I think people get along pretty good, aside from one or two reocurring conflicts.
About the lack of posts... it's catch-22. People don't want to visit because there's no new posts, and there's no new posts because people don't visit.

it's dead even when we try. That being said, TA is a lot more fun at times and I'm a mod on there, as well as writing on here. I'm going to try to push the forums more here but it will take time, I don't think there is any one fix for it.

We had our post-top last autumn when we gave out free records and stuff to the most active users.
Reintroducing that would probably boost the forum-activity again, but I'm not sure if it's the right way to go...

It would certainly boost posting numbers... but there would also be a lot of crap posted. Plus from your end, it might be financially prohibitive.

So the question is how do we boost forum activity without resorting to bribery

Nothing wrong with a little bribery.
