Subject: You are given the power to repopulate forums

Let's say you are given the power to increase the percentage of active population in individual forums. So if you increased the population in the community forum by 100% it would have twice the active community and there would also be an increase in activity as a result.

You are given "500%" to "spend" on the forums. This includes all of them (yes, even Crimson). So how would you deal out the population increases? Would you be selfish and add it all to your favourite forums? Or would you help out the forums too? Which forums are in most need of help with regards to activity and population?

How I'd do it:
Community +100%
The Flood +50%
Universe +75%
News +0%
Classifieds +75%
Gallery +75%

Halo 1 +25%
Halo 2 +25%
Halo 1+2 PC +25%
Halo 3 +25%
Halo 3 ODST +25%
Halo Reach +0%
Crimson +0%


No private group forums, sorry.

Bye.

The News forum should get 450% and the rest can be split with the remaining forums.

Per your example, you've stated that the percent you're increasing is relative to the population of a specific forum...so how are you really defining "500%" in this case? I initially imagined that this was 500% of the entire forum population, then distributing the result throughout the forums. But it seems like you're using them in a way where the percentages aren't overall percentages, but percentages of a specific forum (in which case, calling it an overall 500% is a little confusing).

If this is the case, the smartest thing to do would be to apply all 500% to the most popular forum. There would be the most growth in this case, and many of the newbies would expand to other forums as they used the site.

Universe gets 200%, Community gets 200%, Flood gets 100%. The members will find their way to other forums eventually. The Big Three need it.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I don't even know if I would even add more population to the Universe Forum... I like it how it is, and recently, more and more idiots have been joining in.

A good portion of thread son the front page should be locked. The forum needs more ninja attention than anything else.

Questions lead to learning, learning leads to kowledge, knowledge leads to understanding, understanding leads to peace.

I would probably give 50% to the Halo forums and classifieds, and 100% to the community and universe forums. My favorite fourms an the classifieds being active would make this sight even better.
