Hey it's not just this guild that's having issues.

My home guild the UGMF is having some serious issues that make this place look like Walstreet.

I just think that the guilds just need to find a new way to attract people in. Possibly an interesting role play story and plot, open and active disscussions about things that would fit the guilds topic {ex for this guild; music, dance, whatever else gang people do I don't know these things >>; } And also interesting contests like the bump one I can see you have, or a riddle contest, or even games like the one word story or twist the wish. Even putting some of those open subforms to use like opening an art subform for all forms of art, pictures of yourself or friends, poems, rapping, dance, music compositions, whatever. The UGMF got the majority of it's members through people who were already members with an ID in their siggy posting around open forms because people were curious about the ID.

You guys still possibly have a chance of rejuvinating yourself as your guild topic is very popular, and you already have a large ammount of people. You just need to encourage them to post. You don't necessarily need more members, just make people want to post. Maybe send out messages to people who are inactive to post. Even though that's an enduring task it's been very useful. I've seen some guilds have a guild mule which all members are friended to so there can be an activity chart set up.


But that's just me.
>_<

We've already booted 1500 people out of this guild because they didn't post, so if you think we got people now imagine if we didn't boot everyone before haha. We would be the biggest by far. Its kinda quiet now, but it has its ups and downs. The rappers haven keeps us going quite nicely smile Plus we get like 5 new people a day almost, seems like more people are joining recently than in a long time. I think were gonna have a revival realll soon cool

for the record, were never booting people like that again, so nobody better ever get the idea that they're gonna kick out the inactive people. its not worth it lol

Haha
I know all about that inactivity boot.

In another guild of mine, a friend and myself went on a banning spree. We WERE suppose to be on the hunt for any mules of our former first mate {vc} but we also decided it be easier to just ban all of 'em who had no posts too! =D

Ok, so some of them we did type up a reason for as suspect to being a mule of the former first mate, and maybe we didn't do it in the most professional way but hey, it's a pirate guild. We can be as unprofessional as we want.

So a few of the accounts wern't a mule of the former first mate, so she got a few complaints about being banned on her behalf. So a lot of people were pissed they got kicked. They hadn't posted since they joined, so they can kiss my a**. : D
