Lost Members *sigh*

[Terra]

How sad is it that the most active members from years past and the best mods and smods no longer visit the site? We all miss Cloud, BFU, and Kadaj, don't we? Well we can do something about it. Look in the member list and e-mail as many people as you can, telling them to return to the site. And one of the admins can mass mail the whole site, telling everyone to return. We have to bring our old friends back!

That's a great idea, I never met them so, of course I'd like too. ^^

I'll help in everyting I can, which is not much, lol

Thats a great idea but we have to get something to bring them back....like something to hook them. Example:

Dear member,

You have to go to Gamerz-place. They got this new *blank blank blank* You gotta try/see it. Plus we got this and that now. And OMG Daesy is there. She left Blootix. Come Come come.

Sincerely Dae.


Get something to hook them not just to come back but to stay.

well how about:

Dear ______,
We have missed you at GP. Things have rele improved since you left. We got a new ________ and _________ and more members too. Things would be so much funner if you were still here!

Sincerely,
_______


But it would just be easier for Nitz to e-mail them all saying "Get yo asses over here!"

well a few members are gone because they were banned. Cloud and Seph were banned. They basically hacked the forum and were able to somewhat get in, but not change to much. Much of that was my fault for not updating to the latest software. Though now these days, I update as soon as a new update is released.

Kadaj.. not sure.. I think he might have been banned for a bit, but I do know he comes by to view the forum I bet He was a good guy.. but the main reason he had to go was of his background history. People from other forums who hated him came here, so I suppose he left. Strfye here also said he helped a forum out long ago.. then they trusted him and made him admin and he deleted the whole forum, when the admin said he wouldn't allow him to do certain things..

BTW members don't need to email other members yet... I will be mass emailing them all once GP is at a better state IE. RPG is working and done, ARcade games are up etc.. Also, I have a new hack installed which emails all users after 30-60 days of inactivity.. telling them to come back and become active once more.

Can they choose not to recieve that email? What if they actually want to leave, and don't care about the site? (just asking, I don't wanna leave )

And for those who've never met some of the older people, just do a member search and sort it by join date. You may be surprised at what you find!

why? did you find someone in the memberslist

As for people with emails, it will still email them.. and you can't use a fake address, otherwise the board won't let you join.

I am a relative n00b here......but one thing that keeps me from coming here on a daily basis. Is that fact not many are engaged in discussion. Just thought I would share my thoughts.

you are right.. I've noted and it's ALWAYS been like this but out of all the people that visit/join/login etc.. daily.. only about 50 % of them actually put time into posting.. which is funny because they take the time to visit the forum.. and even browse.. but don't take the extra time to post.. sadly..

 

[The Legendary Saviour]

People come and go, thats how it is.
I dont think we should put our enegry in getting all old members back but to get new ones

 

[Fusion-X]

i hate to say it but TLS has the right idea, i'd love to see the old members back but that don't seem very likey -_-

but i'm all for unbanning Cloud and Clouds friend, since i wasn't here when all that **** when down, i'll go start the "bring cloud and his friend back fund" LOL j/k

 

[Terra]

lol.....as much as TLS does have a point, wouldn't the forums be something better if all those who use to post in the past would come back?
