Two things I've noticed since returning to post actively: The rate of new posts is significantly lower than it use to be (on my various other attempts at activity). Hold on, distracted by a smiley jerking his turkey

I don't intend to be rude in any way, but thus far I like it here and intend on trying to stay. I'm a member of at least 2 other FF fan sites (one is much more active with posts, but they're insanely cliquey and I'm not a fan of that and the other doesn't update FF related things anymore and deteriorated into a torrent site) and I see this one as a fantastic replacement for both. I've seen that LocoColt04 (or is it just 4?) has gone to at least one SE meet and greet (dressed for success), so maybe working a bit more closely with them would yield swag to give away to members of the forums that meet certain giveaway criteria (promoting posts!). I do a giveaway on my own game related fan site, but that comes out of my pocket since the developer isn't all that worried about supporting fan sites and what have you.

Secondly, why only two forum styles? Why no simplified style? I took a look at the forum leaders and there's a huge number of them and I don't see any of them post, are none of them able/willing to create new skins? There's a vbulletin community at vbulletin.org that has a ridiculously number of cool styles, mods and other hacks that have proven to be fantastically useful.

Thoughts?
