mayhaps. might be a bit of a boring read, though. "meet rex, he's gay. meet g-man, he's really gay. meet uschi, she has a cock that is likely gay. jeremy knows for sure, because he's gay."

I have the feeling we might be about as accessible as 4chan, with so many inside jokes nobody outside can make head or tails of the writing.


i'd love to get a buncha new people to post here. always have. the problem with that, really, is that sorta the "charm" here is being an asshole and shitting on other people. especially new people.

its not exactly the most welcoming approach.

then again, it helps try to ensure that the people who do stick around can hold their own ( ) . thats how most or all of you started out.

i'm not exactly sure what the best solution to that is, then. i just wanted to use that beavis graemlin.

spam decent board like Gaming Age FForum.
Google ads on other places?

rex, uschi and i have all written it on bar bathroom walls.


And, to be fair, one of my favorite friends there is blind and I take every opportunity available to make fun of that and we're still friends. That guy never fit there. He never got the spirit of the RKMBs. We're gonna keep an eye on the obits, see if he finally left or if he really did have a heart attack.

I know it would suck, but I don't expect anyone to read it except stupid fuck n00bz that don't "get" any of the running gags. Also, like Squeaky Temple said, a flash animation would make it rad. And, like Uschi mentioned, it could also just link to random interview threads. It doesn't have to be a thread, just some fag page with a lot of text and links, accessible through the FrontPage only. Like, title it "I'm New and Retarded and I don't GET THIS SHIT! F.A.Q. for the little people."

If there too stupid or too impatient to learn how things go here they shouldn't be posting here.


You want more posters? Make the boards more appealing. Its as simple as that.

How does an IM chat feature make the boards more appealing to anyone but a select few? I only ask cuz it seems like only a spirited few are even interested in the prospect now.

I think that posting here is kinda cyclical - for the most part it seems that people get caught up in dealing with what's going on in their own lives and sometimes don't have as much time to post as usual, but come back when they can. As has been mentioned before, it can be hard to break in here what with all the inside jokes. It also seems that where once this was very fun/flirty/jokey/lighthearted place it has become a bit more snarky which could be a turn off for new and old users alike.



Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

I've heard from a few people that don't post anymore that this place is just too small and a little uncomfortable.

What if you had a forum for people that were really really good looking? You could call it the "Really Really Good Looking People Forum For People That Are Really Really Good Looking". Instead of doing all the boring type writing, maybe you could just talk to the forum and it would like say stuff for you.

It occurs to me that this entire thread was a scheme thought up by Rob.

In making it, he's moving more posts.

On the other hand, a lot of people were turned off and left when the place went from anarchic and chaotic to flirty and lightheardted in the first place.
