Basically when it comes to wrestling forums, it's not 2001 anymore. If you look at wrestling sites, there's not a ton of really super active ones, there's Wrestling Forum, Wrestling Clique and Wrestling Zone who are the big 3 and a whole bunch of medium and small sized boards in our range.

I've done what I've can to try to help this place grow and pumped in a decent amount of cash and have even talked to other smaller sites about merging or purchansing and coming over here, but people just aren't willing to make a deal.

I'm honestly content with where this place is though, we have a staff that contributes and have been a close nit group for well over 3 years, and a nice group of core members that accept this place for what it is and enjoys it. The 1,000 member thing is flawed with the majority of that just being people that registered for free. This place isn't going to get huge overnight for the reasons I mentioned above, and might never get to this point, I'm not looking to get rich off this or anything so it's just a place to talk about shit, and if it happens to boom so be it, but I'm realistic about how a forum grows.

Casino isn't coming back cause there's no hack for it and streams are only going to be available again soon once I get the time.

Well I am certainly going to bust my ass to try and help keep this place active. Any ideas on anything we could do to get everyone on TWC excited about something? I tried the e-fed here but not a lot were interested. Not a lot were interested in the debate league either. What can we do that would keep everyone's interest?

The funny thing is when we first started it was only like 12-15 people who were active day in and day out for like a few weeks and the forum was active as hell so you only really need a tight nit amount of people who can make an active forum if everyone does their part to make sections they want active, active.

Just post, tell people you know and enjoy the site. Short of a merger activity isn't going to boom overnight, so just enjoy the place for what it is.

Yea, PHX the NBA Lockout is really screwing over what was the most active thread on both sites.

What about a posting tournament? Like the King of TWC? Kind of our version of a King of the Ring tournament. I could think of some rules where you get an opponent in each round and you face them for a week. Maybe during the week, you get points per posts/threads, and more points for bringing in new members? The winner of the TWC Tournament could have extra privalages here or something?

Might be a good idea, but at this point the members that log in everyday already post, and right now I'm concentrating on bringing new people in, not saying it's a bad idea but I don't see it being something that gets a lot of interest.

Sounds like a great idea as long as it gets stuck to.

NBA Fantasy League.

That was 1000 pages of greatness one season on WCF and then a couple hundred before we lost the site for the last season. That and the NBA playoffs bring activity as some of the regular members of that league post here a lot during the season in other sections too.
