Ideas to Grow Our Guild!

[Ennichi_Jimetsu]

Hello!

I thought a thread might be a good place to brainstorm ideas together of how to get more people active in the guild again whee

So far all I can think of is perhaps posting on social medias the fun that we have together on Gaia in general, but also perks of this guild? Like all the tutorials, getting to talk to each other, bouncing ideas off each other, contests, etc.

One thing that I noticed is we probably need to make it more user friendly. I think there are some old threads that can be consolidated together (working on it a little) and I thought about if we had a general chat thread too.

Since twitter is dying, and I never really left tumblr anyway, I was thinking of posting some things there! Part general gaia adventures to show people the site's not completely dead, and part showing avatar and irl cosplays that are from this guild

Posting outside of Gaiaonline is fine. You just need to be mindfull of Gaia's TOS. In other words advertise the Guild and what we are all about is fine. If that makes sense.

Anything I post there I intend to follow Gaia's ToS just so if things end up cross-posted somewhere else it'll all be cohesive and adhering to the same rules. I did re-read them recently to make sure not much has changed from before. I know sections 4 and 16 are probably the most relevant posting/linking elsewhere, but I'm not concerned about content misaligning with any of those rules.

My aim is advertising Gaia and our guild while also hoping to draw in some community through tumblr. There's some people on there who've have some very creative Gaia art, so it'd be great to drum up some new interest for Gaia.

I haven't had much time at all to work on the blog layout, but there's a few things I reblogged just to see how I like the template layout. In case anyone also has a tumblr, its here ..

I think I'm having some issues with my clean up of the Tutorials. There was someone who was doing it before me, but I'd feel guilty to delete someone elses work.

I can understand that. We stand on the shoulders of who came before us! Maybe we can think of a way to consolidate everything while still giving credit to the person doing it before?

If you see anything that you'd like to delete and I made, tell me. If I don't care I'll tell you to go for it.

Ashleigh feel free to edit, delete, and or consolidate any of the tutorial threads that xinitia (Xac) created. Also when you do so please note that Xinitia is the original author on the new thread. The threads in question are 8 years old so I feel it would be a good idea to update them.

Thanks.

I'll probably combine them into one thread and link out to different pages like I do with the Cosplay Tutorial thread. I'll put a huge disclaimer that Xinitia did a lot of early contribution and recognize her work, but it'll also recognize that I've edited, altered, and added a lot of things since then.

When I can I'll so do some quotes so it's pretty easy to see their work vs. My own.
