can chapters get closed, yes they can get dis banned, one good way to get more to join is to become popular within the community, and then more people will want to join it, also stick a link in your sig. Anything else i have no idea on.

Make alot of databases, post alot in the forums(any bungie.net forum), get alot of news, stay active. Alot makes a good chapter.Mine probably isn't a great chapter, but it's borderline good. And if you put a link in your sig, try and make it so people will read it.

Well there are many approaches to running a good chapter. Just depends on what you want it to grow to be. At any rate, I suggest reading these rants by member Live killa, he wrote them for MSXL and really made some founders open there eyes. And I wouldn't reccomend making a ton of databases, if they aren't used, they are just waste.

Yeah, after reading that, I think my chapter is the worst in the whole 7th column for some reason. That rant really changes the way you think about your chapter.

What's really weird is the fact that there is a ton of activity in my chapter, but all of it is either by me or other people. The other people put stuff in the databases, but never join. If every person that did something in my chapter became a member, I'd have as much members as Wolf Raiders. Maybe I should make the databases member-add, public-view. Or make a news story to please join if you were active in the chapter.

I'm relatively new to chapters, but MSXL and Spartans of Halo were two of the first chapters I ever came across. It gave me a good idea of what it should be and what it could be when I finally decided what type of chapter I was going to create. There are a lot of chapters and it takes alot of dedicated to keep it running. There will be times that no one is joining your chapter, but you need to be patient...they'll join eventually.

Well, membership is slow for any chapter. My chapter was going hot and heavy for awhile, but then it hit a wall.

Man, this just makes me feel so good inside. I love being made reference to, and when my work and stuff helps other people. Who would of thought ranting and raving would be so helpful to every one?

This is not the forum for advertising your chapter, let alone the topic. You should go to the Classifieds to advertise your chapter there, this forum is for helping people with questions and thinking of ways to improve the column and b.net. thanx.
