for the love of maynard......

HEY HALO, when did this site start? how come so few members? we need to get the word so we can get a little more posting going on. anything i can do?

You should have seen this place when there were only five of us! I tried to recruit some people from the 13th step message board as well as TOOL chat. This place should be great once the newbies start posting. I hope it doesn't get too crowded in here, though. I think 40 to 50 people would be perfect.

[Halo]

It's kind of hard voiceofgod, I do want to get the word out, would love to see more people here and more posting going on. But at the same time, I don't want a bunch of idiots running rampant here either.

My main concern is for the respect of Maynard. And of course, the other members here. Most people that have come here have done so because they were ridiculed at other boards for expressing their admiration for MJK. I opened this board for them and I want everyone to feel comfortable here. I will not have what happened to them at the other boards happen here.

I've seen some of the shit that goes on at other boards with the total disrespect of MJK. I won't have that here either. Everyone is entitled to their opinions of course, and all opinions are welcome here. I'm not saying someone can't be unhappy with something MJK has done and express that. However, I've seen too many times where people want to delve in to his personal life. I won't have that here either.

This board is very new. It's only been up a few weeks. Word is starting to spread somewhat, we've gotten a few new members here just in the last week.

If anyone knows of a place that they want to promote this board, that would be fine with me as long as you let me know first before going ahead with it. Also, if you do promote this place, I'd ask that you stress some of the rules here, especially the rules regarding respect.

Did you have any specific ideas in mind, voiceofgod, on getting the word out? If you do...let me know because, yes I do want to build a bigger member base here.

Thanks for your offer of help.

Well the idea of recruiting from other forum works b/c I came from 13th Step. Glad to be here to, gets a little old being called fan boy and "on maynard's nuts." Can't help it, the guy's a genius. I didn't really know you wanted a smaller type board. It's cool with me if we only have 40 or 50 people. That would help keep the whackos out. I didn't have any specific ideas, but let me know if you need me to help in any way. I have a few friends I'll definetely push towards joining the sight as they are extreme Maynard fans as well.

P.S. Definetely bonus points for the respect issue. It's nice to flame every now and again, but with something I'm passionate about, I like being more civilized with discussion.
Keep me posted on anything I can do to help.

It’s not that I want a smaller type board, I’m not concerned with the amount of people here, the more the merrier. What I’m concerned with is getting people here like the ones that harassed you for being a fan of Maynard’s. But I think that is going to be inevitable. You are always going to end up with people that just come to be asses. I’m not too terribly worried about them though. As I said, they will be given a chance, they will be warned if they start blatantly disrespecting people and/or MJK, if they don’t cool it, they don’t stay.

Being that the board is only a few weeks old, I’m not extremely concerned with the lack of posting or members right now. I think word will get out and more people will come. I think that once the new members here have some time to “feel” the place out they will start to feel comfortable and start posting.

I will certainly let you know if there is anything you can do, I appreciate your offer of help. Right now, just let any friends know, if you think they would be interested.

I hate it when message boards get crowded. New people come in and ask questions that have already been answered like 100 times. Well that happens on the HIM & Got Korn Forum so it might happen here. I've been trying to get Tool and APC fans to come here but they never do. If they sign up they never post.
