[Imagination Club] Challege: more participation

[MaulikDave at torrentpharma.com]

I think discussion through email might be a problem. Many of users might 
have registered with their secondary email address which they check only 
twice or thrice a week. So, when they check it they email box is full of 
many things and most of their goes into cleaning & reading. Majority of 
time don't get time to reply in forum.

And people who have registered with their primary email address, might 
have filtered the messages in separate folder (which is good thing though) 
and will reply to message when they have nothing else to accomplish at the 
moment.

Secondly many people post replies just in one or two line and without 
giving little time in thinking because they think this is not serious. So, 
in my opinion no good thinking process has gone for the challenge.

Thirdly many discussion ends without conclusion or without any recognition 
to participants. Even when Jefferey posts a challenge, he never posts 
conclusion message with recognition to contributors. May be you are 
concluding because you wish to keep it open? But, may be we can reopen 
after sometime.

Probably for problem number one, we can't do much but for problem two and 
three our fearless moderator sure can bring some discipline.

Thanks & Regards,

[Imagination Club] Challege: more participation






I have a problem! The level of participation in the 
imagination club has fallen over the past few weeks, even 
though membership has increased slowly.

A month ago, a challenge would have resulted in at least a 
half dozen ideas from a half dozen people. Now, most 
challenges get just one or two responses.

So, today's challenge is simple: how can I encourage you 
and the other 100 or so members to participate more in the 
imagination club?
