Ah, I could have explained myself better. There's nothing wrong with the actual boards we have, just the number of members. Take WF for example. Hundreds of people posting every day which leads to a massive diversity of different topics. 15 or so people on here isn't going to bring such a big range.

Yeah, but if those 15 people post consistently, someone new will come in and post consistently. Members will keep growing when they see consistent posting, which will bring the diversity. They don't want to constantly post themselves if even we don't.

Maybe people could mention this site to their friends, or advertise on other boards they're on? Idk how many people other than 'Cane actually advertise this board. We do have all the basic stuff on here, it's just the lack of members. It's basically been the same crew making micros since WF, with a few new additions like M3G and such.

im on here everyday. whether it is to post or just look. lately ive been active with posting micros and stuff. we need to pick one board and stay there. im tired of a board dying out causing a new board to be made. i mean seriously we've had microdude, fwc or whatever it was called, tmu, and now here. Not to mention a part of wf at one time. It wouldnt hurt to have a board about a lot of stuff. At least it would stay active... No offence meant, but your one to talk. You usually just lurk here, you do post micros and reply to some stuff, but your really off and on. You'll post alot for a week, then leave for two weeks. And Shaun... not funny at all. Bit late on the response here, i wasn't trying to be funny i was saying bye since your leaving for a brief period. At least thats how i see whats happening?

But advertise it where is the problem. That's the problem I had with advertising the proboard, I tried my best, but the only place I could advertise it was MIB. And let's face it, most people at MIB aren't intrested in joining these new boards. The majority of the micro community make micros when they feel like, and don't like the whole competition thing. So even if we did advertise it, there'd still probably be a member problem.

Yeah. I know CMC and myself promote on WF, which is where most of our members originally came from.

WrestleFigs, it had a Graphics board mostly dedicated to micros but thats been closed down. Since most people there seem to be pretty good at graphic design and sig design stuff it might be a good idea to advertise a Board Layout/Banner contest of some sort, might attract em

I just kinda randomly got this idea, maybe instead of weekly shows like before, we could randomly choose someone from all active members, each week. Whoever the chosen person is gets to pick one match they would like to see with an interesting stip. I think limiting the shows down to that, we will be able to make sure there is a good chance of the people handing in. Just a thought.

Yes, but then theres no cool show cards. But I think we will just focus on MBLs and Competitions for awhile, and if activity goes up, ill hold a Christmas PPV.
