We're all guilty

Something I have been doing over the past few months is simply hitting new posts and then leaving after only seeing 2-5. I browse a post here and there but don't comment. I am willing to bet the majority of us are doing that.

So I am trying to do something about that and post a lot more to breath some life back in the board, cause there is much left here.

1-3 posts a day and at least 3 new threads a week from each of us would get this place rocking. Why wait till new years to make a resolution?

I noticed a lot of people left as they left school.

On a side note, if DM sends out a "come back" and people do, but only see 5 new threads a day, they don't stay.

I'll try to start more threads about whatever, but I will stay away from just spamming.

i didn't mean to come off snarky. we really do appreciate those that have stuck around and continue to do so and we do welcome any ideas you may have to help traffic.

i know i'm guilty of not spending as much time on here as i used to. part of it being that the new job doesn't allow me as much goof off time as my other. however, i'll be laid off again here soon so i'll probably be around more.

I came from LS1tech. Saw the link in natronathons sig over there. I'm totally guilty of coming in here and browsing the new posts and leaving. I'll do my best to try and post more.

Hey cutie I love you too


LOL

I find threads with a few post but most are a week or two old. I worry someone will say something about being late or digging up a dead thread so I don't post. Sometimes I will but most of the time I just move on. I'm on Dodge forums a lot more now. Maybe I'll throw a link in somewhere and see if it gets any new people

Activity has gone up and down in waves in the past, too, so it's no big deal if things are a little slow right now.

But I definitely agree that without a real focus it's tough to draw more people. I know jades has tried different things and hasn't had any luck, which sucks. I wish I had some suggestions...
