Free Shirt Giveaway - Carolina Broncos is on Facebook

[66Roadster]

Do you mean at the November Run Bart, or in the Spring of 2016?

[chuzie]

Surely spring. It's too late to coordinate for NovRun.

I don't do FB either. I'm on there once in a blue moon at best. I spearheaded this project for the club. Chuck is going to take over starting tomorrow and i will once again disappear into the shadows on FB.

Spring of 16, like in the past. We can't be messing with the Nov run

Not sure the time frame for the site upgrade or funds needed though. For now it seems to be MUCH improved!

The only deadline we have expires when the last member stops visiting the site. I would say there is a point of diminishing returns though; thus the FB push.

First off let me say that my intention was never to get a free shirt.

Second I like the idea of free publicity, just wanna take that a step further, I totally wanna revitalize this site, just don't see the incentive of someone joining CB4x4, they can see all the chat on FB and look here for tech without ever becoming a member.
Maybe by saying become a member we clarify a member here, as that would get people here and not just looking at it from FB and joining the group there for a chance at a free shirt.
If we can't change the current giveaway then maybe this is something to keep in mind going forward

Would be happy to help with that also Bart.

having a "closed forum" is a double edged sword...i cant tell you how many times people have linked a site, picture, or build thread only to find out...i have to join that site to finish seeing what i clicked on to see. aggravating! personally if someone finds our site, i want them to sit and check it out for a while.

as for give-aways...sure thats a great thing when you have an active site and over 100 paid members, then when the item is offered to just those paid ppl, those who havent paid end up feeling like they've missed out on something great again. in the past, ive had the free memberships to hopefully build our "paid members" and make others want to upgrade. as for paid members, i find those are the ones always looking to better the site, they have invested and wish to see it grow...and i feel the same way. i'll probably always continue my membership with classic broncos, because i know i can go there, search and ask questions. when i started this many many moons ago...it was based off a yahoo group page, and then you had to be a paying member(always $10/yr dues) and that gave you forum access. but we quickly changed that because paypal wasnt a option back then. i also did other things like sent a sticker with every membership due that was paid in. ive always wanted to show i was a part of a group, always wanted to get a sticker, shirt or whatever. never bothered me to purchase those...but seems like no days...ppl just want free. and i can tell ya...stickers for me, arent free.

as for the shirt give a way, im cool with it, and i think it being offered to just forum members is the best way. lets face it, those on facebook may never come here...some ppl hate forums, then there are those that hate facebook,etc. its been ten years, and i really do want to see a lot more years. so if you(anybody) wants to see us stay around and build...simple post up, login and say hey, post a pic, or even ask a question. conversations are key here and on any forum. we dont have 30k members, so there wont be anyone else to carry us for a couple days...we're local, and need local(cb4x4 members) to check in and post up.

im not even sure ive made any sense, ive been trying to type this for 2 hrs in and between work here tonight ...ok, ill shut up now:banghead:

yall have a nice day while im sleeping, when yall read todays post:bdent::toothy12:

one more thought...for whats its worth, i saw we have 74 followers using tapatalk to access our forum. and we have jumped from 19 active to 35-36 active just in last week or two...thats says alot-keep it up folks

What PayPal address do we pay the $10 club dues to? Is it a rolling 12 months or does it restart January 1?
