I don't know about you guys, but I'm feeling we need more members! I know our number of posts are increasing, but there are no different topics; showcase has one entry per day. I think we need to boost this up, so we can't see all topics and answer all of them cuz there are so much! It's getting kinda boring =\... Well that's my opinion. I really don't know how to get more members, but a solution would be very welcome !  |

The next patch will help with that, I think.  As well as SotW, User Shops, Points, VS Blog, and a few other additions coming soon. |

Wow.. stupid sven forgot to modify the board when he moved it. xD All this time (like what, a week now?) I was wondering why we got no replies...  Fixed. |

I noticed it a while ago, but I figured it was done for a reason...  |

Wow, well that'd explain some of the inactivity.. we release patch notes and the board was still under staff-only view the entire time. Such an epic fail. <.< Either way, as I said - we are currently working on many projects for VS all over the place.. they're kinda being all released at once, so prepare for it, the points system will be amazing. |

1,000 members and 5,000 posts or 50 members and 10,000 posts?
Member count with low post count just means people sign up, get bored, and leave. 50+ active members is real good.

That I can understand, Spektral, and I honestly hadn't even thought of it... Seeing what you've said, I become almost neutral on the subject.

Well Sunjo has almost 20% of all VS posts. But I still believe that with more members we can improve more, on art or social skills. Meeting different people, with different styles and points of view is a "Philosopher's Stone" on how to get better as a person. I'm in college, there are people I've seen and talked only once, but that single talk, oftenly is unique.And you can carry its main ideas for all life! That's what I think. Edit: Nice Sunjo! I'm waiting to see that!  |

Have you tried perhaps making a group on DA? I know people can make groups on there - not sure how, but maybe that might entice some graphicy people?

Sunjo has been put on watch by a lot of top designers on DA, not big noting him, but there are some very influential people that we talk to on there - myself, I'm not a fan of DA lol, so I dont use it, but either way its been done already Georgie.
What we need to do is give people more reason to post, thats what these ideas are. As Spek said, 1,000 members and 5,000 posts or 50 members and 5,000 posts? I love the tight little community we have going here at the moment. Sure, increasing it's size would be good, but I'm not terribly fussed, taking things slowly and making sure everything is right is the best way to go about things.
+ If it gets to big, we lose the close contact we currently have with our current group of members which is the best part about all of this.

Thats what I always think on forums and I think its fine at the mo, with new patches and features they will come, if I ever have a thread idea I will always post one up or I just think of them so if more people do that then well more posts and threads. |

Yea, if we wanted to be a massive open source forum - we would have structured VS different, leaning more towards resources than CC and stuff. However, we like to think we are community based, so we design things to keep people interested and having a lot of fun.
