Does anybody know of a way to get people to post more here? I'm open to any suggestions.
I was thinking of putting on a post-a-thon where a date will be designated and on that day, everybody can post as much as possible. What do you guys think?

You could try it. I hate to say it, but I think the Arthur fans are dwindling or at least the Arthur fans that want to converse online are dwindling. It has been a year now since the Yahoo Arthur2 group was updated, and trying to get people to chat on there seems to be comparable to pulling teeth.
I have a suggestion for a topic though - I collect all things Arthur and would love to hear about other people's Arthur collections! Maybe even include pictures? Also have items available for sale, or the ability to put up want-ads for Arthur items collectors are looking for?
And just so you know, I personally love this board!!

E-mail notifications would probably help a lot, but I know that is not possible from talking about it before. I know you have mentioned this board on the Yahoo Groups Arthur2 site - but another plug on that board would be good too I think since it does send out e-mail notifications to its members. It has been dead for a while, so an e-mail might spice something up. Make a post explaining we are looking for more activity on this Arthur fan board, along with a link to it, and we are asking for Arthur fans to check us out and also suggest what they would like to see on this board. I really enjoy this board, I think it is better than the Yahoo group because we talk more and it is updated so much more often.  |

I have an idea: we can start good discussions that bring readers. In other words, our discussions may begin with a question or request, asking the readers their opinions on Arthur-related subjects. Also, we can start writing contests and reward the winners with beautiful illustrations of hand-drawn trophies or stars. I remember on the main Proboards site that there is a money hack. Maybe, we can use the money hack on this forum to motivate people to post more. Members can look at each other's value/money and compare and boast their participation in the community.

Well, I have to give my two cents ^. ^
Today, the best way to promote itself is by using visual methods. Let me explain. To make videos of Arthur, put them beautiful music, with songs that are famous now, for find the video by searching on you tube with easy searchs (For example: Arthur - Alesha Dixon - Boys does nothing) . And in the description and the start of the video we can put the link to the forum so that people will move.
Another practical method may be doing fan art of Arthur, and put in the description of deviant art (for example) the direct link to the forum.
Also, a slogan and a description that appeals to the public.
I do not advertise much, but if I see that these methods work, and that if all members of the forum we unite, we can do quality advertising.
Many kisses ^ - ^
Sorry my english T.T
