Bring it Back to Life!!!!

[jeff2429]

There's another Dune forum besides this one?

[Edric O]

I will set myself the goal of writing at least 35 posts a week (which comes down to 5 posts per day on average).

[gunner154]

Edric O, you know we can expect more :P

What about the atmosphere do you not find nice, Kirby?

[Acriku]

I believe Gob posted mostly in Site Updates thread, sometimes constantly when the changes were numerous. (And then we'd all bitch about the changes)  ;)

When the site was active during the Dune 2000 and Emperor years I was spending most of my time working on it. I have no idea how many hours I put into the site since it's creation but I have no doubt that it is in the thousands of hours.

For me the most fun in running the site was always in the creation and development of it. I truly enjoy the community that has been built from it, and am amazed at how it has lasted, but these days I just don't have the time to regularly post here. I do try to read most of the posts but that alone takes up a lot of time. So while I may not seem active because I don't post I am still a "regular". :)

[gunner154]

Aww... The mighty yeti speaks, the mighty yeti we all love and miss...

[alchemi2]

Total Time Spent Online: 10 days, 5 hours and 51 minutes.  :O

Doesn't seem very much after four and a half years, to say I visit here nearly everyday.

[gunner154]

I get the same feeling too :-

But a few days can make a huge difference.

[Dunenewt]

Well we've had more posts in the last 3 days than the whole of November last year, which is pretty impressive!

[gunner154]

The kind of activity we had in November shouldn't be the case in the first place. It's... it's... shameful! :(

[Dunenewt]

At least 3000 posts is the minimum aim for this month.

[lowzeewee]

Mmm, nice to see that Fed2k is bustling once again.

[gunner154]

Well, that's an incentive to return, no?

[Dunenewt]

Of course it is.

So, how much free time DO you get?

I've never seen you on the forums before.

EDIT

OH MY GOSH (xD), Facebook is cool!!!

[Edric O]

At least 3000 posts is the minimum aim for this month.

Actually, I think our minimum aim should be to have an above average month, which means getting over 3342 posts. 3342 is about the average number of posts per month for FED2k, given that we have a total of 320878 posts and the forums in their current incarnation have been around for about 8 years.

[Dunenewt]

Well, that seems achievable.

[gunner154]

I've never seen you on the forums before.

He's been around here much longer than you.

[Dunenewt]

I remember when Lowzeewee was KGA's age.  Now I feel old :(.

With all these old members coming back, we should get quite a few more posts than last month.

[gunner154]

I wonder if they behaved similarly... I don't think I was very active around here then.

[Dunenewt]

Lowzeewee came up with some good fan fics back in the day.

Anyone know how to get hold of Ken, DJCiD, emprworm, Nav, and Gunwounds?

[gunner154]

I remember emprworm left on a pretty harsh note, I think. Gunwounds came back some time ago, apparently returning as Halo.

[Dunenewt]

If we can get that lot back, and a few others, we'll easily be on 200 posts a day.

[gunner154]

Sounds like a tall order. I don't keep contact with any of them. How about asking Acriku- to talk Gunwounds to coming back? :P

[Dunenewt]

Worth a shot.  I got Lowzeewee back.  I may have Guns on one of my msn contact lists.
