Just a thought of mine, it struck me when pebbles said something about inviting friends to join (thank you ;D ). Well, I think we should have a board where people who join off of a referral from a current member can post and say who referred them. Like say pebbles invited one of their friends to join, then the friend could go to the board, and just write something like "Pebbles invited me". And Pebbles could get like, 2 Karma points or something...I don't know...and it gets the new member that much closer to becoming the next rank...or if you advertise the forum in general, they could just tell them to say "this person put a post to check this forum out and I joined" or something...
And we should try putting a sub board for banners to make and use in the advertisement section...like, "Advertisements For Salty" for those creative members and people who make banners get like, some sort of prize, like a Karma point or something else...
Well...I was just full of ideas ;D ...well, actually, the banner idea was pebbles, I just thought we could make a board for it (and sorry pebbles for using your name so much...)

That's a really good idea...I'm going to need a little help creating that though...so maybe be a little more specific? Wonderful idea though.

Well, first, I'm going to need some banners. lol I can make some, but I'd love to see what some of the members could create...only if they want to though. It's quite alright if you just want to do the advertising or something. I'm going to go make an announcement in the news fader about the advertising...maybe put up another informational table thing above the news fader about that and some other important updates/announcements...what do you think? And...I'm not sure I understand. Where exactly are you suggesting to put the "Advertise for Salty" banners?

You could create a sticky in the advertising forum containing all the banners and the like, and then people could request them (seeing as right-click is disabled) and you can PM them a link to where they're uploaded or something, and then they'll either put that on another forum linking here or their website..

No, I was saying we should put a sub-board in the advertising board, named "Advertising For Salty" or something...and people can post thier banners there for themselves and people to use and advertise with...

Okay, referrals. I was saying how we should have a board, like in the "Welcoming from the Salty Sea" category, called referrals. And say a member says to someone, "Hey, I'm in this great forum, check it out," and that person joins Salty. That person will go to the referral board, type something like, "Chaos invited me, so I joined" and then that member (Chaos- me in this case) would get some kind of reward, like karma points or something. Or say I went to another forum, and put up a thread advertising for the forum and telling them my name. And they join. Ex.Thread Name: Salty's Petz Forum Thread Content:I'm in this awesome forum called Salty, it has...etc. *Gives a link to Salty* Please join and take a minute of your time to go to the referral board and say Chaos (or whoever) invited you. Not everyone will bother going to the referral board, but quite a few might, especially if they want to get on everyone's good side, or they might say it in their introduction or something... Is that a little better? Sorry, I'm a confusing little typer sometimes...lol

Yeah, that's how I interpreted it...I put a board in the Announcements section. Yup, that's good. I'm going to do that...gosh, Chaos. I should just make you mod.
