tips on how to grow the userbase? Anonymous 08/18/15 (Tue) 19:20:45 No.123

any suggestions?

Don't even bother trying until the board's direction and rules are completely ironed out otherwise you'll just get a bunch of conflict and meta shit and stunt any growth

no shilling. I saw shilling for this. STOP SHILLING ON BIG BOARDS. that is a death wish.

I suggested this board when /co/ would bleed about games posted but I don't go to /v/ sorry I didn't link it there or anything

Pro-Tip: Tell that shill on /tv/ to knock it off.

people need to fucking post to begin with

Yeah, that's what happens with all alternative boards. /am/ is the only one that ever really got past it. Everyone wants more people, but won't actually post themselves. You can't just shill a dead board and expect new people to build it.

The only way you get past it is pure dedicated autism. Make OC for other boards that relate back to your board, fit your shilling into a thread with contribution rather than by spamming new threads, and for every shill post make a post on your board. Samefagging may be required early. Steel yourself to this inevitability.

This is your friendly local /am/ shill. We're always looking forward to seeing more shills get into the game.

a community cannot thrive if people do not post.

I just checked and apparently we have 19 people. if that is correct, more people should be posting. why is no one posting?

I post on /am/ a lot but I'm not sure what kind of videogame-related funposts could I make here.

Don't know about /co/-related material, but there's not all that much to talk about with regard to modern vidya. Generals can't really happen without more people and who's gonna post in a thread which topic we've been over millions of times already? So it's some kind of population catch-22.

I think you're overcomplicating it.

What kind of games have you played today (or this week if you don't play much)

PoE all day err day. SS13 before that but the server went to shit fast, and when a new better server popped up and everyone left the old, shitty one, the old admins literally bought out the new admin.
