Need help...

I've taken over as moderator for the Maine board, which has been VERY slow lately. 

I'm looking for ideas of polls, daily "activities" and such that have worked on your boards that might get things going.  

THANKS!

Re: Need help...

  • I do a weekend plans thread every friday, and some of the girls do a live Glee chat on Wednesday nights, and for awhile they were doing live ANTM chats - if there are any shows that a lot of your girls watch, it's a good way to get them interacting with each other which may make them want to post more.

  • We do a daily Good Morning post, which gets people chatting. We also do  lots of polls, Confession posts (i.e. I ate 3 Krispy Kreme doughnuts for breakfast, etc...), and also have posts about tv shows like Glee, Biggest Loser...  And we have had a get together pretty much every other month for a while.

    Hope that helps!

  • We do daily posts.

     

    Lurker Monday- makes the lurkers actually post

    Show and Tell Tuesday- it varies, usually Show me this and Tell me why

    Flame Free Wednesday- always fun

    Open Letters Thursday- This and FFW seem to get the most posts

    TGIF- wedding related and no wedding related plans for the weekend

    AW Weekend- what you accomplished all week, wedding or other

     

    Hope that helps!

  • On my local, we do knottie of the week.  I have a list of questions that I post every Monday and I pick a specific knottie to answer them.  You can go over to the North Florida board tomorrow afternoon and see the new thread.
  • A newbie post is always good. Kind of like a getting to know you type thing since new people join all the time.
  • Love some of these ideas!! Totally going to use them!!

    I also do a WTF/Flamefree Wednesday & TGIFish/Rant/Rave post for Friday!

    I would totally love to do a knottie of the week!

  • I'm really struggling with my board too (Retro/Vintage weddings).  It was really slow before the board change, but I think the board change has scared some of the regulars away.  Or maybe they can't find it.  I don't know :/

    Anyway, I do a monthly poll and that usually gets things moving a little, but I feel stupid being the only poster sometimes.
