People on forum

Yeah, I think /w the ppl in the guild and using the guild chat for telling them to go on the forums is the best way.

personally I doubt it a bit , but i'll be happy to be proven wrong. So let's make it and make me eat those words

Just spam the shit out of it guys! I give you all permission to annoy our leaders and fellow guildies! (As long as I'm not online)

Suddenly bringing back the application idea doesn't seem so bad, eh?

People join forums, makes less people join (now before you go apeshit on me, less people=more organization and more of a community) and if there are any main pvpers, we can politely reject them (I'm very sorry, but we have an overload of pvpers atm. We need more PvErs!)

I ain't recruiting anymore.
But the application system did work for forum activity, in a way. They register, but never check again perhaps...

But it still puts them on forums. Now when we ask them to check forum, they just put in the URL, look at the left, see the post and do something there

Or even better,they make a bookmark which they only have to click...
