So, this forum is kind of dead and I'm wondering what I should do with it.

I don't find myself drawn here to post anymore and it doesn't seem anyone else is.

However, I know there is the user groups option that will allow me to add and delete "mods" of the forum without having to wait for David to change it. That would mean I would be able to pick active people that we want to post in here and it wouldn't be so dead....

but at the same time I want to let someone else do that and just join their group

Local Mods :

Not sure which summon works in this forum.... but I figured I would try again.

I really do want responses from people if they have ideas of what to do.... I'm considering getting rid of this forum but if anyone has a good idea of something to make it more interesting then I'm interested.

I have no good ideas on this. Sorry man. I've actually been thinking since you first posted this, but I got nothing.

no worries. I don't really know either. I might shut the forum down and transfer everything to innocent town and try and get on as a mod there with pacman. It's not like that place is all that different from here.

Great balls of fire! I'm a forum mod here!

Ok... what to do here. Well, we could start holding tournaments or contests of some kind here. Or maybe have this forum as a base for a "newbie committee", where we could be a group of people who make sure that newbies and welcomed and don't feel overwhelmed to post on the board instead of just playing in the RGR. This could be a like a starting forum. Or maybe have some kind of games here. We could also find a goal, a purpose, something to DO on vizzed, like.... I don't know. But some kind a comittee or gang, and we can use this place as our base of command.

When we get the groups up and running, this could be our hideout.

Just throwing ideas out there.

I've considered keeping it as a secret hangout for people just in my "group" when that option arrives. It seems like a waste to just wait until then though.

And a hidden forum that gets no posts is pretty pointless.

Yes. I think it's a great thing to have your own forum, and shouldn't just end it. I'm sure we can think of some purpose to serve.

sonicmcmuffin : That's not a bad idea actually. I might consider that. It would be easy to add people who have been here for 1 year or more that are active.

That doesn't create activity in and of itself but at least I know who is most likely to join my group

Well thanks for accepting the idea into consideration.. I was just thinking of a way to manage users.. and then i came up with it.. I mean after all most of the active users over a year old are usually good members

Well... dang. I don't want to sound pessimistic, but I don't see much options besides Muffin's idea. All of the active members have virtually disappeared with only a few of us still logging on Vizzed for whatever reason. I've lost nearly all motivation to post due to a variety of reasons. 1) Game threads and the Crazy House lower exp. per post, 2) posting in controversy threads means nothing since it feels like nothing is ever accomplished, and 3) I'm working to get the help I need, so I have one less incentive to post in a secure place.

I hate to see places with good memories disappear, but what can you do when you think there is nothing to talk about? :/

I don't really don't know what to do either... If you could come up with some kind of game idea and monopolize it, it might make the forum more interesting. The problem is, that's far easier said than done; I don't really know what you could do to accomplish that.

Sorry for the double post =.= I just thought of this.

You have loads of Viz, right? Why don't you have like a layout contest or something, maybe switch it up every month and have more than one kind of contest? The winner of the contest gets Viz, and if it's restricted to this forum, it might help this forum out a bit.

Maybe we could make a new game of sorts in this forum. It'd be cool, I think. Does anyone have any ideas as to what type of games?

The Planned Accident : I've been trying to think of one.

And like WarpStarFerret said, a contest wouldn't be to bad either.

About the "older members" idea, it's good. But if the underground and the lodge doesn't get much activity, I'm not sure this place would.

Am I the only one who noticed that geos private forum does not have Ask Geo Anything? Maybe move that thread in here to increase activity. After all it is one of the most popular threads on vizzed.

Private forums need exclusive content to remain somewhat active and currently nothing in this forum is really exclusive enough worth of having discussion that is why I suggest moving Ask Geo Anything in here. I also don't know how many people can see this forum... if only 20 people are allowed in here then I think there isn't much you can do to increase activity.

well, since you can actually get in here and post then it's been opened up to elite+ but that still only makes about 200-300 total people having access and more than half don't post much anymore.

However, I think that this doesn't make much sense which is why I'm looking to change it up.

Eh, I kinda like the old timer idea... as much as I dislike referring to myself as an "old timer". And maybe moving your Ask Geo Anything thread here might bring some added attention. I really don't know.

I dunno if I want to move that thread here. Most of the "old-timers" have already asked me a ton of questions each. It's the new people that should have access to that thread.

I would be totally open to having an ask anything thread in here though. Make it open to everyone though.

Yes, that would bring a lot of traffic here! The great thing is, if there is still no activity here and we your thread dies down, you can just move it back. So there is no harm done.
