Re: Active Members
They help a lot too, another thing that works very well, I would guess (never tried), would be to get together a secret group of members, and have them post a lot, without the other members knowing that they are part of the staff team.

Re: Active Members
Haha, it would eventually, and it is sneaky.
Someone should try it, and post back here if it worked or not.

Re: Active Members
Contests are always a good idea, I have one going on right now. Nothing makes people post like nice cash.  |

Well, how do you get people that are willing to do that? I have been looking around for ages for these sort of people. |

Re: Active Members
Have a spam forum.
It shows you care about giving the users freedom and you want them to have fun. Turn off the post count in that forum if that sort of thing bothers you. But having an offtopic area does wonders for the members.
