We would hear tales from up north about how a band would order a beatdown on some dude for lighting up a cigarette at a show, but nothing like that ever happened here. Just a bunch of cupcakes with black X's on their hands trying to find a legit vegan burrito place. You guys were definitely on another level. I remember a dude getting body slammed over a cinder block at an Agnostic Front show, and dudes getting beat with a black jack at an Everybody Gets Hurt show.

The_Endless Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 19 hours ago, COI said: There is probably a myriad of reasons why there aren't new members. The biggest reason likely has nothing to do with any of the members here and more to do with the changing online landscape and the multitude of other venues to interact with. When this forum started, social media was barely a thing. And the problem with your analogy is that you go to a restaurant to get served, and you pay for the privilege. This isn't a place to get served, it's a place to participate. Bowing out of this discussion since the first step is recognizing there is a problem. Not many people want to recognize there is a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlowUpTheMoon Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I'm surprised Stu hasn't commented. Or maybe he did and I didn't see it before it got *poofed*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szav Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 If you guys are worried that the boards are dead maybe you can convince Cgc to advertise them a bit, particularly at conventions... I honestly don’t even know if they do that to begin with. Im sure that more people using these boards would indirectly translate to more money for them. Although ... the boards being too crowded could be bad also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icefires Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 (edited) I joined the boards because of my love for DC 100 pagers. Then after a couple of months, for some reason Clark Khaos posted this message to me: "Hookers and a steak dinner? Or will your wife and sister be out of town and we'll just have to settle for steak?" Calling my wife and sister hookers didn't go over well. I went from being just a tool to being a major tool. These days I have reverted back to just being a tool. And I still drink too much...... Edited February 15, 2018 by icefires lizards2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

entalmighty1 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 On 2/14/2018 at 8:24 AM, The_Endless said: Agreed but we are looking into why this place is not thriving. To thrive we need new members. I firmly believe that how new members are treated is an essential component. After all, who returns to a restaurant where the host was rude and the waiter didn't answer your questions until you asked 3 times? Sometimes the host and waitstaff get tired of answering questions about the menu when the menu is in your hands. Not always, but a lot of times these questions are asked three times a week, and with just a tiny bit of effort the answers are already there to be found. It's like telling someone what time it is when they're staring at a clock. How many times does someone have to delve into an explanation of "HI WHAT'S THE BEST WAY TO SELL MY COLLECTION??????!!!" from a member with 1 post? It's tiresome. Figure. It. Out.
