I know it isn't this guild, but does anyone have any ideas of how to revive a guild that has been dead for at least 6 months? I know of two guilds that are in this state and could definitely use a face lift of some sort. Can anyone help?

I'm kinda looking for ideas that won't break TOS, Mooby, but thanks for the suggestion!

Good ideas! Part of the reason I think the two guilds I'm thinking of have died is either - too specific a topic for a guild, members quitting gaia, or even just people forgetting about the guild or lurking and not posting at all.

You could change the quild to more of a general discussion kinda thing.
Everyone likes those.

---|See, specific topics can actually be a good thing. If you have a general guild that's just like every other general guild, why would anyone join yours over another one? If you have a guild with a topic that appeals to a certain interest group, however, you're more likely to attract active members.

(In case that sounded kind of pre-rehearsed, it's because I spend hours at GGN Support doing the same sort of thing for new captains.)
