I wonder if we could get Chils to come by?

I sent him a FB messenger. Last time I did that (quite awhile now) he did respond. I was asking him to come back to the Blueboard and he pretty much said "Maybe but I doubt it". This time I mentioned the new board and it would really make my day if he hung around here a bit. I know he works in the medical field so he could also be overwhelmed at the moment. Fingers are crossed. Let's see how many people we can get over here and just see how we like the flow of the place. I feel like a number of people from the Blueboard would migrate over here. Did anyone put a post in the beer forum there with the link to this place or does that sound dicey? I really don't think many nonbrewers go in there so the chance of unwanted elements coming over here are small. If I see accounts that I either don't recognize or that cause problems... I just delete their accounts. I'm not putting up with any nonsense.

I think it would be good to see how many of the Blueboard beer forum types are willing to come over; lots of good knowledge and experience there that I'd be glad to see here.
A post in the brewing forum there would probably be ok, but a post in the PH would probably only cause trouble. There are some personalities in the PH over at the blueboard that I wouldn't be sad to never see or hear from again.
If Chils manages to come by, maybe we can get Seagis to make an appearance (not sure if he's a brewer or not)?  |

If Chils manages to come by, maybe we can get Seagis to make an appearance (not sure if he's a brewer or not)? Generally, I agree. I would never consider a post in the PH. Even in the beer forum... it COULD happen that someone wanders in there and sees the post. Then they go back to the PH and post the link there and every ass-monkey that we would prefer NOT be here... would come over here to screw around. I'm not predicting anything but I could EASILY see it. Remember that people tend to be bored and looking for something to do right now. |

If we concentrate our interests, crafts and hobbies to beer, culinary, and other stuff, that will keep most of the PH from having interest. Our group in the beer is very communal and accepting. Personally I never understood how a forum could be called what it's called with very few members actually brewing. I try the AHA, but that place is difficult to navigate and replete with silly questions. Newb's should always be welcome so long they're willing to read and think. There are no dumb questions, well.... that's not really true haha.

Agreed; no sense in creating additional hassle. That said, there are several in the beer forum I'd like to have over here: drez, zymot, dj, lefty, jayb, schwanz, and several more I can't think of at the moment. |

I really have no issues with anyone in the beer forum and I would like to see as many people over here as possible. I would even ask some people from other boards (who I know and who are good brewers and good people) to come and hang out here too. Jayb is one guy I would like to get over here... he's local to me, has been to my house and is a good all-around dude so if anyone can send him a PM over there, sweet. |

So with Drez and Lefty here, I'm thinking that we need Jayb and Chils (still waiting for Chils to respond) and possibly others. Brother Poptop, did all of this happen with a PM or a post in the beer forum? If it's a post then all we have to do is wait for everyone to see it and that includes any people who are on the fringes like stain or zymot. I have no idea what percentage of traffic on the Blueboard was "BEER" but I know it was low. It might be about to shrivel up and fall off. |
