Non Active Posters - NJFBOA - Home of New Jersey's Camaros and Firebirds

ar0ck · 03-14-2005, 03:00 PM

I was thinking a way that we can get some of the 0 posters to come back to the website was to send out an automated email to whatever email they signed up with. Im not positive if with this website they used an email activation or required Email. Although it may not be shown in their user profile. The admins should have a way to find the persons email that they used.

I know on my forum I can just click a check box next to the users name and send out messages from the website.

You could just send a brief reminder to the non-active members too see if we can get any more active. Becuase I sometimes browse the members list of lowest post counts and theirs probably about 100 or so non active people who have regestered and have either forgoten or the weather just discourges them.

Just thought Id add my .02 to get some more active members for all sections of New Jersey.

You'll always have lurkers and those who just want use of the classifieds section. A newsletter might provide the cliffs notes version of the news, enough to get them to look a little more at the board discussions.

I think I've posted all of 5 times on the TGO discussion boards, however I'm pretty active in the classifieds. They just dont track the classifieds postings.

Hope this newsletter isn't full of Readers Rides pictures or some other bandwith eating info?

The newsletter will be a text-only e-mail sent to every member of the board (we admins do have access to every member's e-mail address).

It is basically a write up of current club news and plans for the near future. Look for it to arrive in the next few days.

One thing to think about:

I generally check this board from work. Lately there have been a LOT of "not work-friendly" avatiars. While I appreciate them at home people have to be sensitive to when others may be viewing.

I generally don't have a lot of time at home because of the wife and kids.

Maybe this is one reason for people not coming here a lot. Can you track when people log on without posting?
