I heard about DGN while I was at City Club the first couple of times I went. :) And I met some pretty kickass people!

Mina can you narrow that down any? Remember who you heard about it from? ... and HI btw. Not sure I've read any posts by you in a bit. *waves*

Mentioned to me by the friend who finally managed to drag me out to city club. Apparently he doesn't actually post here.

Hrmm. Gotta suck him in somehow if possible. *plots*

mstrbeau.....

Yay!!

Well Vein (who hasn't posted past his first day on) Stormknight and mstrbeau mostly... my first night at CC i must have got 6 cards lol. But I wouldn't have actually signed up if Vein hadn't that same day too.

Near impossible to predict who will ACTUALLY start posting and not just go POOF. Glad we managed to trick you into sticking around though. *hugs*

He rarely uses computers for anything other than games. And he usually uses one of mine for that, so I'm not sure that sucking him in is possible. I will try threats and violence, however.

As far as I can tell almost no one has ever become an actual poster due to this banner exchange crap. (although many have come via DGN banners from a personal myspace page and such.)

Looking at the people that have come via Google, very, VERY few become real posting members. A lot have shown up via random web searches and such but they don't convert into active members very often.

Nothing can replace actual warm blooded live ST style promotion. Takes "community" style work to keep a community going. Unfortunately that is also, for most folk, the hardest thing to do.

Awwww I found it via google. XD

Just like a week after I moved here. I was like...hmmmmmm...I wonder what's going on around here...

::google::

::input "detroit gothic"::

::find dgn::

::happy::

And it was that easy. XD

But I guess I'm the exception... ;)

It was suggested to me by someone in "real life". (How ? Who?)

It was suggested to me in a conversation that I should consider joining DGN. I believe I had seen it in previous years via Google but never gave it a chance. I'm so glad that I did.

Miss Kitty was bugging me about a year and a half ago to join and I was like "I'm a metal head, not goth, why would I go on there" and then a month or two later I was at Titsmcgees place and she was posting, so a few days later I joined. :) It was a good move, it's not all goth, it's much much more! ... Like sex. haha!

I've actually toyed with changing the board name to something like "Detroit Underground" or something approximating that theme as it really isn't "just a gothic website" at all, but the goth name does help scare away people that tend to stereotype people (but also may scare away some of our "target" audience unintentionally)

Troy and I were fighting on this strange shifting platform with spikes in Cloud City, and when I was about to fall of the edge he showed mercy and saved my life... To which I responded: "Where you go I follow..."

    • About to get this day started.  Yesterday, my vehicle was towed to our neighborhood service center and was started on.  I also took care of multiple appointments and errands.  Now I'm about to verify orders and then start on yardwork detailing.

    • I’m feeling the temptation to get dressed and go out to the store to get some dessert.  I’m also feeling restraint because I’m not going to do that, even though I physically feel the temptation.
    • I had two dreams last night. The first was about a man in a director-level importance coming and going from his office. He had trouble with his feet, and it was painful for him to walk. He wore large, warm boots similar to mukluks but comically large. He shuffled while wearing them. When it came time for an important meeting, he switched to a different, more normal boots and walked normally despite being in pain. Then he returned to the large boots. I was watching him from a mall bench outside his office the entire time. The second was about me and my coworker sitting in a room similar to a large, tiered lecture hall. Our boss would bring us comically tall stacks of paper and told us to sort it. The papers were large packets of information on various things, and most of it was basically meaningless. We pointed this out, and my boss shrugged and said "I know" and gave a sympathetic half-smile. There was no way to sort it in a way that mattered. Eating strong cheese before bed is a fun experience. I highly recommend experiencing cheese dreams at least once in your life.
    • It's Tuesday and I'm thinking it's time to get things done.  I just decided to start all over again from scratch. 1. Handle Truck Situation 2. Handle Appointment 3. Handle Yardwork 4. Prepare for Wednesday
