That's 200
« on: December 11, 2011, 04:35:37 PM »

With the arrival of firekite today, we just reached 200 members for OBT.  Nice to see we are continuing on our pathway to world domination as planned.

You know there is something wrong with the FWL, when Word's spell check changes Impavido to Impetigo and Zechetinu to Secretion.

Sweet! 200. Now, if we could only average more posts per day.  ;)

Perhaps another series of invites?  That got things kicking last time.

Honestly, the only thing that genuinely seems to work is content. As the old adage goes, "Content is King."

So when the content runnith dry, so does forum, site and visitor usage drop.

True enough. So more content = more members = world domination!  ;D

Pretty much. That's how every modern day site works. Especially a site based on communal interaction.

Well I'm working on doing my part, working on another short story that I plan to fully write over my Christmas break.

I don't have much to offer in the way of content anymore. Other settings and my own personal gaming mad scientist projects have won over my attention from BT recently. I'll likely still do some MegaMek here and there, but if I'm going to do the level of work needed for an AU that I'm willing to accept as quality material of my own, I think I'd rather play in my own sandbox. So, hence not much posting on my part. The current policies and practices of CGL don't thrill me a great deal currently, which probably doesn't help.

Noted.

While I like to foster AUs, content as currently defined doesn't necessarily have to be an AU, or related directly. IMO, this place is open to just about anything. If it's not BattleTech, I'll find a place for it. Don't really care what it is honestly. There's a lot of resources available to people who want to actually utilize them.
