You could use ads or even mass-email people from Release db's.

I mean R-S lacks members now too they barely ever have people online anymore

maybe a tight-nit community is better?

Ads would help with revenue its just the lack of RSPS players at the moment.

i think not forcing someone to post 10 times before being able to do what they came here for is a good idea

forums are mostly dead these days, it's all discord. dunno what the thought process was in forcing us to post though, comments are not worth reading because of it

I honestly love the site, none of that BS attitude you see on R-S or RL. It's no surprise though that the website lacks in members, would ads help out at all? What steps are being made to ensure the growth of the website?

Yeah, of course advertisements would help the community's growth, perhaps some giveaways on different occasions.

Just joined but this forum is actually good, i would say ads and ads again.

I really enjoy the forum aswell, there's alot of activity!

Google can make or break a website, the more backlinks the website has linking to the spider, the more results and chances for said website to take off. spread yourself thin and wide, more hits. more users.

Sounds like a scam, but whatever

Make it so you don't need a 20 post count to download content. smh

By not making the site make you post 20 comments before being able to download stuff. Maybe like 10 just to get the person involved with the site.

To get growth I would honestly advertise to strangers on Minecraft development Discords, and gaming discords in general, as long as they allow soliciting.

Removing the post count, requirement and instead stimulating people to browse and use the tools freely. Besides that, I think having just a couple of 'solid' projects works better than having a ton of 'no longer maintained', or 'barely working' projects. In that regard I think stimulating people to collaborate on an existing tool instead of starting their own would be a good thing.
