RaiseThese Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Dude if you think it will work the do what you gotta do and the people here will adapt or they wont Create, promote and prioritize whatever you need to in order to get paidJust dont change the name of main stage and no one already here will know the differenceBut if you are trying to use MAIN STAGE as the hook for new signups and segregate posts away from this specific sub forum the shit wont fly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatboatboat Posted August 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 You have to do what is best in your mind for adding value to this place. I would have just implemented the changes without this thread.You are right.Simply wanted the "ten" to see the logic.The "ten for the most part are forum pals. Group has posted togather a long time For sentimental reasons like to see that continue but at same time see forum have a chance to grow. Thought by basically giving them there own forum with even MORE FREEDOM as well as access to every thing else, it would allow TGF to have 2 subforums a new sign up sees that isnt caustic. That was the hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concept is a sub fourum a new sign up doesnt see, but the old timers who care to see it do. They will be afforded even more lattitude in that sub-forum than they are now.I honestly dont get how that's bad?Unless its only fun yelling N when you know people who dont care to hear that are subjected to it?

Boatboatboat Posted August 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Actualy answer may be easy. Create 2-3 new subfourms.Block all current users from seeing those. Make all current sub forums private for current posters. Plausible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Losco Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 boat its not going to work. forums are dying your not getting new sign ups, unless its someone from sbr/eog/peeps/etc. the new generation goes to social media or reddit having to jump around to all these sections to find threads wont work either because not many people want to do that. they will stick to one section like we do now here i know you have goals for this place but they arent realistic or achievable. your value on this site seems to be way to high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeman Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 Dumb idea, a sure way to kill the forum, 2 of the sections will get no posts and the other will be just like it is now. A better way to improve the forum is for boat to take another 2 yr vacation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeman Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 No Mike, you and me and Teddy and Sam are wrong. Boat is right.Yup, look at what he does, he pops into a mask thread and trolls that with stupid comments, he comes into teds thread and fucks that up, and most of the time he's either seeking attention by posting videos of himself, or bragging about himself. Even when we get a real sports related thread, such as the new baseball season, he'll pop in with dumb comments like shut the season down. People were joking about him being debbie downer, he is debbie downer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatboatboat Posted August 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 boat its not going to work. that seems to be the general consensus forums are dying your not getting new sign ups, unless its someone from sbr/eog/peeps/etc. yes I agree the new generation goes to social media or reddit yes and the far fetched hope is to convert a few of those to posters with weekly promos. But with the current climate on TGF it would be difficult to convert them into a regular posterhaving to jump around to all these sections to find threads wont work either because not many people want to do that. I agree. Which makes me lean to simply leaving things the way they are now for any current sign up. A new sign up if by some chance we get one would see a few sub forums the older sign ups wouldn't see. they will stick to one section like we do now here yesi know you have goals for this place but they arent realistic or achievable. Very plausible your value on this site seems to be way to high I dont believe so. But I am bias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatboatboat Posted August 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 just ban/moderate the racism period, fuck the dumbshit boat your just avoiding what needs to be donerip the bandied. truth is you are right. was trying to devise a plan the "ten" could stay, do what they want and not hinder growth.the other advantage a hidden invite only forum doesn't harm SEO So by doing this it would allow those who enjoy the racial banter the porn the F bombs to engage in them in an area all there own.The post there wouldn't count as site traffic either, so zero benefit to TGF but would accommodate a group of people.

milwaukee mike Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 agree with zmo here, even though all of us have posted stuff that could be considered racism, so it's tough "the ten" are mostly only here because they got banned from other forums, or they want to post stuff here that places like sbr won't allow i'm not into marketing but my guess is you need a social presence to push the forum, that's probably not hard but most of us are too old to know any of the youngsters with a million followers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzmocashzz Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 part of the allure here is we can basically say whatever we fuckin want( a strong point), but racism is bad for business period, as far as getting younger peeps here it might not be as hard as you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeman Posted August 9, 2020 Report Share Posted August 9, 2020 when I did that traffic dropped 64%You ran off IAG, kinger ran off Monkey, but you encourage a cancer like Brock to post. then you say " gee, what can we do to expand and grow"?
