    I'm not sure in which language "go forth and post" means "I don't care"...

    The only solution to lack of activity in the monastery is for people to post. I actually agree that druzhina's posts seem a bit much, maybe even a bit spammy and they certainly don't provoke meaningful discussion. I disagree that they drive people away however.

    What is your solution? Tell him to stop?

    If you think quizzes and competitions will make a difference - why not just go for it and see what comes of it?

    If a subforum dies off, maybe it's because it's no longer relevant or needed? Perhaps relaxed posting laws elsewhere on the board mean that those kinds of discussions are now going on in other sections?

    I just made a suggestion. I can't authorize it or post forum wide announcements. I will gladly be a part of it naturally if top brass decide it's a good idea.

    But, maybe you're right, maybe it is time for monastery to go away...

    You are more than welcome to organise something. If you need advertising on the frontpage, just drop me or any other staff member a pm with the text of the advertisement and it'll be put on the FP. All moderators have acces to the FP, so if you pm a few of us, it'll get there in a short time.

    If you need a thread stickied, I'll sticky it. A global announcement? PM me and/or a TA the text and a forum wide announcement will be made.

    It is also possible to add a few priviledges to your account for the duration of whatever it is you intend to organise.

    If you can't do it all by yourself, then you're free to recruit people by pm'ing them or by creating threads in the more active fora. In case you frequent other fora outside the .Org, you can advertise there as well.

    There are plenty of possibilities and anyone who wants to organise a community event, be it a quiz or a debate in the Monastery, a game in the gameroom, a let's play in the Rome II section, a screenshot contest, a writing contest, an art contest, is more than free to ask staff for assistance.
