thats a good question Emopandas, i think any web advertising and linking etc has to be done by the owners of the site. as members the only thing we can do is by word of mouth, letting friends and acquaintance's we know about the site.   

more members would be great (we get 4 to 5 thousand new members per month) but the hard part is then getting these new members to join in and not just lurk, it's surprising how active the site can be if we get an extra 20 regular posters joining in.

Well i can create a signature picture we can post in other forums that is click able and lead them here, the thing is it would have to be an appropriate type of forum! don't want some kids from abstinenceforum.com raging at us :p
I think one of the best options is to lock down the website so the lurkers cannot see most* of the threads because even I did that b4 I decided to join I took a couple days and just poked around and got plenty if great of information and unless I didnt see something I could help with or did not like fisting so much and would like to back and fourth with some info I would not have joined... the thing is when you search for a fisting forum we are the first ones that come up but the actual member/post count is very low. If we had a just general info about fisting thread you know what is it how to do it and a couple tips with a suggestion to join to find any more info or ask questions they want it would get more people, that thread was the only one they could see it would give them more incentive to join.

I cant edit my post so im double posting =O
I just realized at any given time there are ATLEAST twice as many guests as there are members! currently 166 guests and 56 members. We have enough people on here we just need to get them active we need a reason for them to join!

There are many many options that are do-able the thing is we should atleast try to get permission first from the mods. I can set anything up we need this is kinda what I do and I don't mind at all.


Thanks for the offer but the “owners” have there own web guys and run many sites because this is free it always takes a lower priority in the grand scheme of things

There are plenty of options but what do the mods want and if the mods are not as active as once was, we should look for new more active mods that can improve the site as well as trim the spam from it and know what they are doing...

OK..I’m going to have to watch what I say here as  I could get banned for flaming

BUT…DON’T EVER BAD MOUTH FISTS ON THIS FORUM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he has done more to keep this site going than the rest of us put together and with out him it would not have lasted this long

PS…that’s my polite response to some one whos only been on here for 6 hours

haha LOL

I have to say ACDC give yourself a pat on the back and OMG didn't that silence Emopandas bless him.  There is a little thing called etiquette I dont care who you are or where you are from but you do not go into someone elses house and instantly start telling them where to put their furniture or how to run their home.

I second your words ACDC and would encourage people like Emopandas to join this amazing forum and post freely but think before they do so...

Offering your ass to be fisted demands a great deal of trust in your partner - I love my wife so much she can have my hole anytime she wants.

It is so annoying when you are unable to upload vids or pics.

Unfortunately nowadays sites come and go pretty fast. People get bored and move onto the next "new" thing, facebook, fetlife, whatever they may be. I've personally been MIA from this site off n on for a few years due to lack of sex drive for fisting/huge toys. Lack of partners or the always elusive hunt for one can also be a big letdown so folks move on. So as to bringing folks back, hard to say. I would try and focus on the main core members of this site and just enjoy that.

Rubber hugs,

I think this is a good point.  I know longtime active posters want more participation from new users, but honestly I think a lot of people come here to find a real fisting partner and/or view members' pictures and videos.  I would imagine that barbie is right that finding a fisting partner through this site is quite the elusive goal for many members, and is a big letdown.  I know that has been the case for me.

All the fluff posts about word play, what are you listening to, are you plugged right now, show us your hoohoo, etc. are OK.  But, maybe what would be really cool is if more members were able to hook up, play with each other, and record and post their sessions!  I know that's kind of pie in the sky.  But, it seems like that is something that has really happened with some members in this forum.  So, I guess I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

welll yes recently i logged in a bit more often, and seems it is too often.. given how little new posts appear... but overall, i am happy with this site. there's a group of core members that keep it going. it serves its purpose and i appreciate reasonably low amounts of spam.

On the other hand, I actually did recently find a fisting partner on this site, and as a result I sort of dropped off here.

That wasn't my intention when I first came here. I was interested in viewing members' pictures and videos, as well as sharing my own.  I'm making it my resolution for the new year to get back in front of the camera and participate more.  I believe my fisting partner is receptive to the idea of recording our sessions, so maybe we can get that going as well.

As mentioned earlier in this thread, this forum isn't lacking for members - it's just a matter of getting more people to actively participate.
