The sadist thing about Bulletin boards is that they are open to everyone, of course from an marketing standpoint that's great, but the days of the BBS (Dial up) were much better. The advertisement would be done through word of mouth, and those on the site would form a better and much stronger relationship. And the people on the board would always be within 100 km of each other (of course with a few phone phreaking exceptions) BUt the downside would be, we wouldn't meet all these great people from around the world. IT might night be great not getting noticed or having a post or or reply ignored (which is happening to of mine, about 50%, RE: Lurkers, my Story: A Little Bit Different) I didn't get any feedback, but then other things, i got feedback from someone who happen to be online at the same time within 5 min. So it's all the luck of the draw, it has nothing to do with too many people, favourites, or newcomers..just keep going and see what happens..
