Title: Making SF more popular!
Post by: SGVaibhav on January 17, 2010, 02:27:55 pm
Everyone doing IG knows FEP
and the number of FEP users for AS and A2 are also increasing.

put a link to SF, somewhere near IGCSE and AS and A level.
because like only 10% of FEP users know that SF exists, others dont even know that something called SF exists, so place a link to SF, near IGCSE and AS and A level.

that will do it ..

but people dont see that much...
they dont know about our community much, until they actually see the SF homepage.

U dont get it. Nobody cares about SF really. Most ppl go to FEP, take the exam papers and then run off. They dont want to know about SF.

How do I know ? because i used to actively encourage ppl to sign up to SF.... they just looked at me and called me a loser.

Things are good the way they are... in april - may we'll see a spike in activity on SF BUT only of temporary members.

After the exams no one wants to know about SF or FEP until the next exams.

ITS sad but true... a fact of life.

yeah, before i saw a link to SF, but it never loaded for me, sounded annoying.
once it opened for me, and i saw some posts and stuff, that time, i saw astarmathsandfphysics (something like that with a f)
later i went in again, i saw astar had so many posts, and everyone used to ask astar for help, and he used to help, and i used to enjoy that  :D (his siggy was something - god only helps those who want to help themselves)
then i came in later during the IGs, when evilzhurg was there
i used to monitor the forum everyday, it was like i was a stealth member and i knew everyone.
then i saw sweetsh register and she was posting regularly.
then i registered, then emi registered, then sanity and so on ...

u might not know some nicks mentioned here, because they might not be active memebers now.

lol i told me SF story :D

the forum must be useful. I dont think you can force people to join something to download stuff. Blackpapers did and they were awful. If we want people to join the forum we must have new feature - like notes sections, personal statement sections etc

there r so many notes already, that u get lost searching thru them. i had tough times during exams, to search for links someone had posted, still did not manage to find them :o. hidden treasure :D.

i heard so many rumour that black papers, have all IGCSE papers, and they discuss it too and stuff.
