New membership drive

[Capper]

We need some more members (we always need more members)...I know I said I'd never do this again after the last fiasco, but

We really need a shot of growth.......so spread the word, get some friends and family signed up....hopefully people that are active and interested in being part of our community.......

I don't think we'll make this a contest again, maybe we'll just tie it in with the Forum Member Of The month.

Also, make sure you guys click on the Newegg ads in the Recommended Hardware Lists, the traffic those generate for Newegg directly influence whether those keep going or not

I endnd up here as a direct result from the first contest :P I'll see what I can do about a few people, one person I recommended here is just a lurker, I'll have to rough him up.

I try to stay active, seems to me though that most of my posts are asking for help unfortunatly. I am not that smart with all this stuff yet, but thanks to this site I have learned tons. I know a few guys who diy also and have recomended them here. I will try to become more active but like I said I honestly dont know a whole ton about a lot of issues people have.

AHHH the military I miss it so. In boot camp the nurse walking behind 30 men with thier pants at their ankes and she is going to be administering a shot in the behind. As she walked the line to pick her random victim, "Remembers boys it is not just a job, it is an adventure!"

Exactly....anyone can sound like an expert by googling stuff (no names)......but to me the most important members are the ones who stay active and participate in several different discussions.....and who grow along with the forums. Trust me, we all start somewhere, and no one here was born an expert, every single person here is still learning, and as fast as technology changes, I'd venture to say that EVERYONE in general is still learning.

I was told a long time ago, "The day you know everything, will be the day you meet GOD." I live by those words. I'm not ready to know everything. Heck, I'm just now starting to enjoy myself. I just try and learn about something everyday. JM.02 I'm on a few of my buddies right now about joining up. Bailey.
