I think the prof-rating service would be a bigger draw.
I think the best bet for long-term success would be to turn Techsans into an general Texas Tech portal. Academic & sports calendars, sports results, general news, student org stuff, rate-a-prof, forums, etc. This post has been edited by Spectatrix: Apr 22 2009, 03:37 PM -------------------- |

QUOTE (Watchman @ Apr 22 2009, 05:54 PM) Hartmann has agreed to buy it in the full amount. Once I transfer it over I expect a Lance the Nazi-Admin memorial page with a photoshop of my face over one of those huge ass communist Kim Jong-Ill posters. Only if that's what you want posted. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

The rate-a-prof idea is a good one and is something that I will explore. Other ideas? -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

i like the all things tech portal thing. maybe a poor man's eraider with more portals, if that's still around.
a restructuring of the forums. maybe a blog or something. forums are starting to dwindle down across the internet it seems as well. -------------------- Don't sweat the petty, pet the sweaty.

Part of the main page could be set up as a blog format, where the admins post stories and a link back to the forums for discussion/debate.

the only other tech message board i know of is raiderpower.
maybe something that can lure their users over? but not compete..that wouldn't happen obviously. if you redo the forums and stuff, they should all be sfw and normal, and then just have one where all the forsaken/dogmeat/posts would go. as far as modding, less mods. you only need 3-5 and just have them all global instead of one for each thing. --------------------  |

If you want new people to come and stay, the first thing you have to do is quit letting people post stupid shit like what Brandon does. Yall spent all that time putting up flyers and advertising and shit, peak someone's interest, then they come here and see some stupid ass anime hardcore porno pics. Or some stupid NSFW avatar. I got sick of blocking this crap and finally just had to block everyone's avatars and image posts. I don't mind reading his posts when he's actually discussing something but the line needs to be drawn on NSFW images. Even in the love & adult related section IMHO.

I'm thinking we'll revert to something similar to the RaR rules regarding images. NSFW images will not be allowed in avatars or signatures but may be linked to (with a "NSFW" next to it). -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |
