    No-Lurk October


    In efforts to bump up activity, I think we should start "No-Lurk October". A lot of older members have stopped posting and just lurk now... Like you're doing now. Next month, we should make a conscious effort to not lurk and actually contribute to (nearly) every thread we view. This doesn't mean spam the shit out of every thread, but actually take the time to post. Go to intro threads and say hello to new members. Introduce yourself instead of "Hey. You're new. I'm Rhett" or just not posting at all.


    You don't have to sign anything and you can still fap, so I don't know why anyone would not do this. :p

    On a side note, I thought next month was November the whole time I was typing this and I had to go back and change all of them.

    I can't help it. I'm bad with months. Last year, I completely forgot about the months September and August. :|

    I agree. lol, I'm working on a guide when I have free time (been busy and doing homework most the time i'm lurking here).
    But I will get it done soon. And I will make a few more if I can think of some. xD

    This could easily work, but I really don't see the motivation for inactive people to become active o_O. They'll just lurk at the new no-lurkers' posts :p

    The motivation is... kisses. From me or... whoever else is willing to give them. And if you don't like that, the motivation is me not kissing you.


    :kiss:

    DW Rhett, I seriously thought the same thing....
    I was like "WOOT GOIN BACK TO NZ NEXT MONTH!!".... then got dissapointed when I read this thread and realized it was still September =\

    And I guess this is a good sugestion....

    Maybe we can add some sort of comp as well to advertise the site a little more =).. make some sort of cool advert to show off the site and get a heap more people here :D

    always more fun when there is pleanty of people around in a community, and if we are all TRYING to be really active, it would mean people would be more willing to stay :D

    LOL I know what you meant ;) I was just having some fun with you. Didn't realize mods weren't allowed to joke around ;)

    *stays and continues to spam*

    Okay I'm joking :(

    I am a terrible example of what neofriends is about.

    but you'll forgive me right?

    Sounds neat! Could really kickstart the activity now that school has started. I'll be sure to up my activity during October as much as I can.
