Building up IronMass

**skelooth** · 09-06-2005, 12:31 PM

I'm going to start putting all of my little petty questions on these boards. Part of what makes other sites big is their huge number of newbs and the answers they get. I'm going to do my part, by asking inane questions about meal timing, how many calories are in a large egg that has twin yokes, and I was supposed to lift in the 10-12 range but repped it 13, will I still build muscle?

The more info being put into the boards the better... :nosthumbs

just keep the asinine "what is better celltech or creatine" stuff out of here... those belong at another board

yea i agree with this tactic.....i think a lot of newbies are intimidated by the amount of knowledge of a lot of our memebers.....besdies....people love to answer questions they have knowledge in :nosthumbs

I was going to mass-email this sometime soon, asking people to ask questions more to try to get some more activity. It's a great idea, even piddly things just ask to get discussion going.

**Peaked_18** · 09-06-2005, 09:16 PM

Good idea Skelooth.

IronMass is just going to build small to big just like any other board.

In a few years, we'll see how this goes. It's been a few months and we got almost to 1,000 members.

In a few years I will be mr. O, and ronnie will be visiting to get lifting advice from me

Enjoy not being able to whipe your own ass, cause I sure as hell am not doing it.

I am hopeful that as Iron Mass grows that the quality of the discussions and the lack of flaming continues, as I see these as huge selling points to this forum.

Me too. I think the one thing you'll notice here is the mod staff is very active in the forums. We don't just go around doling out punishment we participate and contribute to all the threads because we want a quality forum. We aren't just here to police we're here to make it a great place.

I dunno about the other 2... but I'm only in it for the ladies..

When I meet a woman in the mall or nightclub... I'll let it slip that I'm a MOD at IronMASS...

It works everytyme... :bed2:

Peace..~G

How about is it OK to drink Winstrol...LOL My other board gets like 3 of those a day

**skelooth** · 09-14-2005, 03:50 AM

I've brought a lot of people over here from bb.com already

I put "moderater at the other bb site" as my user title, so every now and then people pm me "What other site??" SO I link them up! And I've been PMing some of my more liked regs to come post with us. Our little fat loss board is picking up steam, and will soon comprise 50% of the internet :king:

FANTASTIC!! :line:

**skelooth** · 09-17-2005, 10:58 PM

we need more newbs.

Without newbies (or at least people who have questions) we are nothing more than a big multi-tiered social board.

Maybe someone can set up a tiny url or set up a url redirect on their server so that we can put ironmass in our sigs again?
