Low forum use by guild members

Nothing the guild can change, because I know the officers do all they can to get people up here.

It's just that this forum can bring us all together, we can stay in touch when we ain't ingame, messages can be passed, ...

It's very useful but so many members ain't on here. Maybe put it in the guild message again? Or mention it when GM is about to start?
I don't know, but if there's 10 people active on this forum I think it's a lot.

A great thanx from the officers to get us this forum, same with TS, our guild itself and all their effort they put into it. This guild is great, helpful people, fun conversations, to much to mention.
I'm very happy I can be part of this little family!

well i agree. i checked and we have about 15 to 20 people checking the forums each day or at least on a regular basis. now keep in mind that many of these still dont post on the forums. but at least they are here and can see what is being discussed.

i've tried many times to get more people in here trough the guild chat and teamspeak but it doesnt seem to work that well. i've got one last idea that we could use to get more people on here but i want to keep that as a last resort.

overall i must agree with you. we have so little people on here that its a shame. since this is the place were a lot of big decissions are being made.
i will shout just before guild missions on teamspeak and on guild chat a bit more from now on. otherwise i dont see how we could get more.

Yeah, you're right, about 20 people who are checking.
Just make sure you don't shout to loud drago

yes I agree, and it somehow always been an issue in the guilds I have been in. It is hard to get people on forum on daily basis. Tripz and I are also using a lot of effort to get people in here, but, yeah..
I noticed while we had new applications on the site, it draw a lot more members to log in and participate.

Agree with all of you, i want to ask dana if its possible to add shout box at top of forum if possible, want to try something. with that, we can greet each other each day, and make important announcements with link in forum if needed, and ofcourse wish ppl happy -b-day ect ect

I have another propositions; we don't use the in-game Guild message board to pass on any information (GM time, JP contests, etc). Just make a link to the forum. Many people are always asking for this information, so that could be a good incentive to join here, at least in a passive mode.

I also think, we should increase the IRL activity; more photos of ourselves, our game-room (have planned on posting mine for a long time now but always forget about it when actually playing), our pretty or less-pretty face, our puppy for some (SIGNO!!!) and other things.

Not a bad idea knoma with making the MotD on forum instead.

well i see that it could work knoma (the posting a link to the forums instead of using motd). but for quickness of acces to this info and the fact that its just better to also have it in game (in my opinion) i would keep it like it is.

now about that RL thing that seems to exist outside of GW2
i personally am not comfortable posting too much stuff from real life. it can be used in too many bad ways. if you want to get to know me then simply go to teamspeak and talk to me. picture wise, dont expect anything from me. i will agree that it can bond us together.
HOWEVER there are some things that i think we can do to really bond together.
take the following nowhere near serious and do not rant about this.

now this wont work in 99% of the cases but i know that im relatively close to a few members of the guild. it could be possible to meet up with them and "hang out" as the young ones say these days.

I'm not against it. Feels like that internet-series: The Guild, with felicia days.
