[QUOTE="Racer_XLR"][QUOTE="julian_jr"] Well that, and the weekly polls are about all we have right now, although I have an interesting feature that I'd like to start doing in here someday.

What will that be?

I might do that at the end of the month talking about what has happened and what is happening. As for getting new people, well we would just need to recruit some more.

[QUOTE="double_decker"] You'd probably get more people just saying that it's a post heaven :P

Sending a PM just saying that would annoy some people though.

What does everyone think of the new feature in the homepage? I'll be doing it every other week probably. I need some designer though to make some sig or something for when posting stuff on the homepage.

I like, but we really need like a union header or something. Just to make the home page standout a little more.

Maybe I should try making an official Union Enhancements & Feedback thread and sticky it. Then again, that would be pushing it in my opinion for stickies, since to me that would be quite a lot.

Alright, I'm thinking of finally taking action and doing a few things for this place besides posting all the time, racer, you got lucky, I probably won't clear your sweep for a while.:P I'm going to first off update the Union Directory, send another telegram, try getting some more recruiting done, and hopefully think of some features to make the homepage and the boards more interesting.

Yup, Racer and everyone else around, what threads should go under the useful threads list? I don't want to go waste time searching for most of them since I have other stuff to update in the directory.

I was thinking on that as well, I might end up someday once I finish doing the bulk of setting this thing up properly, make it an officer job to update the important threads list and union features.

That's another I plan to fix soon, I'll be sending some officers that I haven't seen some messages asking if they still want to be officers. If I don't get a reply in 3 days from them, then I'll demote them immediately.

Alright, the Union Directory is almost finished for now, I'm thinking of what else could be interesting to add in the directory though. Perhaps in the union milestones add at the bottom how many more views we have till reaching the top 25 union views and whenever I post an update to the list, I'll post an update here as well showing if we gained or lost on the #25 union.

So far most of the ideas I've taken from TESFU except made it more organized. :P Also, I now have in the Union Milestones, the difference in views between us and the #25 union.

I know a way to make it look nicer, but we would need designers for that.:x We could create some sigs similar to how this union did for each part of the directory. (if you haven't noticed by now, a lot of the ways I go about working with these things is by making it similar to unions that used to be good:P)
