Where Are We?

One More Block is an amazing community. I've met new people and friends and found out this is probably one of the kindest, funniest, tight group out there.

But I see a problem arising. Many things have become dead, and with school starting, the forums will be even less populated. These things include:

-> Minecraft Server
-> Alüdra (tell pedro to get sourcetree to work!)
-> Other large community based projects
-> One More Level (but technically this is still in private beta)

And more of these I assume.

So. We need some solutions.

Stay small, do big.
We could try to somehow get something thatpeople in this community would love, or would give up playing their game at that time to interact with the community. I dont know what it is but this is something that would really bring the small community closer.

Stay small, be popular.
This one would be a private community, in which we'd do things like making amazing minecraft maps or something like MindCrack where we'd make videos of us playing tons of different games together!

Go big.
Fairly straight forward. Try and become a large community, inviting tons of members, playing MANY more games, and trying to get 100s or 1000s of members in the end.

Stay Small, Stay Slow.
This is just staying as we are now. You guys may enjoy it, but you'll notice theres not as many posts as there use to, The MC server ALWAYS says 0, and I really think we should change these things and more.

Other.
Got a new idea or have an opinion on an existing one? Post it in the comments!

I think a count of maybe 25-50 active members (I mean, regularly active) would be good for OneMoreBlock. I just can't see it working as a huge community as the connections between users would be lost. A clear example of this is "Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus" Where the community got too large and is now a collection of rampant eight year old trolls. Some more members would be nice, but not too many.

Having more active members would be nice, but OneMoreBlock was made for the sake of keeping this community together, so I feel like having too many more members would kind of defeat the purpose.

I agree completely with ElectroYoshi. However, many members have left. I was on skype with Luke earlier and he brought up a very good point. If you look at the members page, there are 24 pages of mainly inactive users. The reason for this is that OneMoreBlock is JUST a forum and needs to offer something that other forums don't in able to keep users interested.

1: Am I the only person who would prefer this community stay small/underground?

2: "this is probably one of the kindest, funniest, tight group out there."

*was

I could fill a BOOK with people that this community lost that, if they were here, would make that statement true.

A small chunk of that community is still here though. And I would too like it to stay small, but at the moment it's a little TOO small.

Yeah but it's not the same if the people that come in are complete strangers

But the thing is, once they're gone, they're gone. If they are complete strangers, we get to know them over the course of time. Simple.

its funny because the only a friend i had in the community was turqmelon, and im pretty sure a lot of people still disliked me, but i think the community should stay the same for now.

My gawd, I didn't say a small amount had gone, I said a small amount was still active here!

I'm saying that calling it a "chunk" is incorrect, It's more like a crumb.
