Weekly Member Interview Series #8 – Reverie
Hello, and welcome to the latest edition of our Weekly Member Interview Series!
This week, we have decided to interview Reverie. This member has been a member of Forum Promotion since March of 2014.
Now on to the interview!
Hi Reverie, what can you tell us about yourself? Well I'm 22 and I currently am in college to become a teacher. I love movies and video games and I enjoy just talking to friends. How has your time here at FP been? What do you like about the community? My time here at FP has been interesting! I joined the party kind of late but have known several members through past forums. I like how the community tries to be a helpful one! What can you tell us about Atrium? Atrium is my baby basically. This project has been something I've been beyond excited for and the growth has been astonishing! Atrium is a place to come together and talk to all sorts of people! We not only have a general community, but we have advertising and little services as well. We even have resources (Zetaboards Themes, Renders, Avatars, Sigs). Atrium is a well rounded place in my opinion and I love the atmosphere we have created! Are there any other projects you are currently working on? Nope, Atrium is my only project right now! I really don't think I could afford time for another forum due to also having a busy life as well. I see that your forum, Atrium, has a thriving community. What were the most effective methods you used to gain members and posts? Honestly it's all about contacting old friends, making new friends, and just combining new with old to create a diverse community. Word of mouth has been amazing, but we've also had great friends who have helped us along the way that we are more than grateful for. What advice do you have for members here on ForumPromotion who are new to administrating forums? Do not give up on a project. Try sticking with one project as long as possible. I feel that many new admins are not sure of themselves so they feel the need to create multiple forums, in this case most of the forums die and they all become wasted time. Put all your effort into one and you can expect some great results! What are your thoughts on ZetaBoards? Have you ever considered switching hosts?' Zetaboards is one of the best free forum software! It has many pros while there are a few cons it is an overall enjoyable experience. I've considered using other hosts in the past but haven't done so yet! What would you suggest to improve Forum Promotion? It could be anything. My suggestion would be to enforce more community participation. I feel as though most of the posting around the general forum (not the post exchanges and etc) are by staff members. It would be nice to see more of a community atmosphere while also keeping up the advertising and other sections. What are your thoughts on the Forum Promotion Blog? What kind of articles are you interested in reading? Any suggestions? I've actually never read many forum blogs. I would love to see tips for other advertising forums and such, I know there was a topic that once had some good ones though most are dead now. Or a topic such as "How to create an atmosphere" or something along those lines would be nice. Is there anything else you would like to talk about during this interview? I would just like to say thank you for asking to interview me, I appreciate it! I hope I could help in any way.
And that wraps up this weeks interview! Thank you for reading this, we hope you will continue reading these every week that they are posted! Feel free to comment below on the interview. Also, feel free to ask the person that got reviewed any questions you feel like!
