Despite what some people may think, people do and have always checked out Mcdivots, but they see only a handful of people on at most and look around a bit etc...
They don't see enough of new posts when they check back either. We seem to be in a catch 22 situation. THey complain because we are not acitive enough, but we need more people to be more active.

We need to agree on a time one evening that we can all be online posting away. We can tell all of our friends and online buddies to check us out during this time. This way they can sign up and there should be a good amount of posting and activity going on.


I am open for any ideas on what would be a good time to do this. Let's brainstorm in this thread and offer any other ideas yopu may have, this would be appreciated.


While I agree we see a lot of "lurkers" and a small percentage of postings, "part" of that could be due to the content of the folders. If you go to the home page and check the stats, you will find approximately half of the posts have absolutely nothing to do with golf. For a DB billing itself as primarily a golf discussion board, that may be a turnoff to some who might otherwise join...just my .02. I'm not saying that's a good or bad thing, but it is a fact of the subject matter discussed here. That was also the case at the previous McDivots.

That said, I like the board, I like the features, and I like the people and would like to see it grow and sustain.

If everyone is agreed on 8:30 Wednesday evening Central Time, I will do my best to be here. (actually, I've only seen one other agree to that time, but)...

It was great, record attendance, but we may have spent too much timew in the chat room. I don't see where anyone new joined the board and it seems that while we were chatting, not a lot of posting was going on on the board.

It was fun, enjoyed the chat.
