If we want more members, activity, and what not....then why not incorporate some new stuff and advertise on sites that involve stuff like that? Such as graphics, create-a-wrestler's, video games, etc...
I post on another site for graphics and I could try and get some of those guys to come here and I could run graphics shows on the other artworks board. For those who have SVR 2011, we could have CAW competitions where someone takes a pic of a CAW and other members vote for their favorite.
We could advertise it on the caws.ws forum
I know it's hard to find people who have the same system but online gaming matches would be fun where we keep track of wins/losses on here.

Last time I done a MASSIVE advertising campaign, we got a bunch of new members who basically posted once or twice and then left. I dont think we need to advertise, but we do need more activities on the site, the problem is, whenever we try one, only 2-3 members want to do it.

Well I pm'ed the guy who got me to join the graphics forum asking if he'd be interested and if he knew anyone else that would actually take part in the graphics league. I'm awaiting his response

Yea advertising doesnt really do much unless your advertising on other micro boards. And really there's only like two other boards and most know about each other's existance already. Its not a hobby that most people will be attracted to. I think keeping existing members interested is more important than attracting people who will post once or twice and never be heard from again.

To be fair, a lot of the members here are people who came from CAWs, when you and MJH advertised over there. So, it can be very helpful if done in the right places.

I posted micros on it ages ago then I left the site came back a few months later and people had dug up my topic and started making them, it was just luck really, in general advertising doesn't work, I wouldn't know where to advertise anyway, the only place I can think of is WF and they're all underage retards now. Also I've never been interested in other activities, I've seen it all the time where very few people get involved and it almost seems like these things are being shoved down peoples throats, I'm not saying don't try and keep activity up I just think it should be predominantly about micros and keeping it fun and interesting.

Yeah, micros will always be the main feature of this site, but I would like other activities and games as well.
