Is .space- and all of Lugnet, for that matter- really quiet? I know, I’m
contributing to the problem by not posting, but I’ve been grounded off the
computer lately and so I haven’t been able to post.
Just checked .space, and no posts for a day. .Castle has more traffic, and
classic-castle.com has had even more. Yes, its Spring Break, but last week
was very quiet, too.
I think we need something around here to revitalize the .space community,
something to encourage people to sign up and also encourage old posters who
are lurkers (or worse) to post. Perhaps we might even need to follow .Castle
(*gasp*) and start our own website- a classic-space.com- to liven things up?
Lugnet is really nice, but I think without something new the whole community
stagnates.
Just some thoughts.

I have several mocs to take pictures of and post, but everytime I think about
doing that I remember how little feedback my posts get and think why bother. Of
course they were somewhat shown in IndyLUG’s moonbase layout so you may have
seen them already. But then again almost nobody commented on that either. Which
I must say surprised me and disapointed me.
Granted I’m not the best feedback giver either but feedback doesn’t seem
reciprocal. When I see a moc that has a really cool detail on it, it has often
been already commented on by a bunch of people, and I really don’t like me too
posts. I must say that policy does reduce my number of posts.
I’ve been reading Lugnet for over four years and it seems to me it has gotten
more and more “cliquey.” In .space anyway. I think this has had a major impact
on lurkers willingness to come forward. Unless they say this is my first post
they don’t get much encouragement.
Or maybe my mocs just suck and everyone is too nice to say so. :)

| (...) Post your MOCs and don't sit around and wait for praise. I've posted plenty of MOCs that only got one or two replies. It happens to everyone. It's easy to blame it on "cliquey", but not easy to ask yourself if your MOC was really awesome. (...) (21 years ago, 16-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
