The Easy Solution!

Considering activity on our forums, here's an easy solution:
1) Be sure to log in when you arrive.
2) If you think of something worth discussing, post a new thread.
3) If you read a thread, reply to it.
Enough of us are here that this could make us about 15 times more active. That's without inviting new members, or even reminding any old members about us. That kind of activity is what we all want.
Also keep the following in mind...
- A short post is not necessarily spam. If it's on-topic, I would argue that even a reply of a single emoticon isn't necessarily spam. Just don't worry about spam. If a topic goes too far, the worst that will happen is that it'll end up in the Insanity Board.
- If a member wants feedback about something, silence doesn't mean anything. If you don't have much to say, simple replies like "Yes" are still infinitely better than nothing.
- If you want to say something, then say it. If you're reading a post about, say, Starcraft II... And two words come to mind: "Peanut" and "Butter", then go ahead and emphatically exclaim to the world "Peanut butter! ". You could be on your way to an Insanity Commendation.
- Peanut butter is good.
Basically... As long as your post wouldn't hurt anybody, go ahead and post it. Our forums will be a lot more lively if we all remember this.
