Re: What are some tricks you have used to lure members back


On our old forum we held a monthly newsletter that was written by the members. One (or two) members wrote an entertainment section, jokes, forum gossip, member written poetry/stories etc and maybe an interview with a member, book/movie reviews etc. It was sent to everyone and it meant group participation and a lot of interest and it did bring back some old members and got peoples thinking caps on.

Re: What are some tricks you have used to lure members back


I was looking at the email reminder hacks at vb.org and noticed there are alot users making complaints about bugs. What have your experiences been?

I'm a newb and don't quite know enough to to be able to deal with issues if the release is not stable.

Re: What are some tricks you have used to lure members back


There were reports of new users getting the email & multiple emails going out. It looks like these might have been fixed recently. I will give it a try once I get my site where I want it to be... I'm sooo close but sooo far.

Caddy, did you send the delurking day email to just members or post it publicly? When I do it it's with the aim of getting new members...
