Since the contest area of the forums has gone down in activity lately, maybe it's time we perked things up by having a new contest. My idea is that we have a contest, unlimited contestants, all working towards the same goal: Promoting the HGF. The single member who comes up with the best way of promotion, or actually goes out and promotes the site the best, would recieve something internet related, some webspace, free email accounts, something like that. We could pick the top 3 and each gets a prize, the 1st place winner of course recieving the best prize. So.......what do you think......could this happen?

Ok, contests on. The winner will get webspace 200 megabytes and 5 gigs bandwidth, with preinstalled scripta (invision php, portal management, website management, webmail etc) Includes unlimited FTP accounts, etc etc, cpanel administration software. You can either get this under a subdomain of homegrownforums, (No proper domain required), or your own webserver account (must have or purchase a domain name 15 dollars per year for personal space) Anyhow i'd appreciate it if you guys could use your initiative to get us more traffic and members.

Good idea :). Please dont do spam on this though. Maybe make one topic on a forum if it looks as though you may be allowed.

-Thanks.

xtc:

We could spraypaint 'homegrownforums.com' on the bridge or something, and video it.

I'm sure lots of people will see it.

hmmmm, but do we want promotion that may involve angry citizens getting on here to see whats here that would cause vandals to feel the need to graffitti the bridges in their towns?

i don't think vandalism is really the answer....because i don't know maybe the cops or some shit might have a look into the site and find some shit that is illegal...
but i doubt it....
i might participate with a few different forms of advertisement
if i do i'll film it as well...
...just need somewhere to host it...

that's what I was sort of thinking....I know it's not terribly likely, but if somone started graffiting the same web adress a lot in a concentrated area they might investigate to see if it is someone from the site that is doing it.....which it would be.....
