How to Pick Up Support Forums? - Metapod - 06-17-2012
Well, I've come back, again just to see what I can do here in the Emotional Support section... but not much around the forum has changed. I read a few threads and saw that Omni is thinking of incentives to promote posting and registration, so I'm creating this thread to kind of get an idea of what people would like in order to drive traffic?
I was thinking of an award or title for the most users registered under your name, or a (HQ) Thread drive. Tutorial Drive, or some other thing to get more content here. We have 11.5 thousand members, I'm sure there are some very intelligent people that can think of something new.
Post below what you would like to see, or what would get you motivated to bring friends here or spread the word.

But there is a Promotor Award, if you get a good number of refs you might get it.
You get

What would be bad about a referral award? If they are registered members, non spam registered, and actually benefit the community, why would it be a bad thing?
I know about those awards, but this thread was meant to come up with some new ideas

Dont ever say no.
I assure you there are plans in the pipeline for several additions/changes for SF.

I shouldn't say I wouldn't consider adding a referrals award. I know abuse could be a problem but that's a risk I may have to take. It is after all only for an award which doesn't have any monetary value so what do I have to lose?

Would it be automatic? If not, you would lose time handing them out.
