Tuesday topic - how do we get people to post?

OK people, give me some ideas, how can we find more people to post on this forum so it won't die? I know there are other parents out there who deal with these things!

Maybe cross link this forum to threads related to the topic that are in other forums?

Offer chocolate?

Play a forums game with another forum where people are likely to have an interest/involvement in both forums? (Special needs & this one) etc?

Offer more chocolate?

Post a topic of discussion that's of interest to others outside this forum.

Start forum games like word association.

Of course chocolate works for me!

Hmm, might be interesting to have a contest or something. Maybe against a similarly sized or similar board, like who can come up with the most (family freiendly) words that start with B or something like that? Actually could be more fun to do it with a more unrelated board. Then we could ask people from other special needs boards to help us. Maybe one of the adoptee or birth parent boards or something. Then they could ask other similar boards to thiers to come help them try to win. hmm, interesting posibilities there. Could also work with some of the other smaller forums. One of the smaller asian boards might be able to get China and some others to help them win against say the Poland board, who would try to get Russian and other EE boards to help them. Hmm. Could be fun. I will have to think some more about that.
