Look how fast OCAU can recruit

[mtb856]

I was digging around the EOC stats and happened to look at how many people have joined OCAU in the last week, and my jaw hit the floor :eek: Note that this is from April 20th to April 13th alone! They've added almost 200 folders in the last two weeks! :eek:

[Wedo]

Our new team leaders need to take a serious look as to HOW the Aussies and the [H]orde are able to recruit and apply it to our team.

We need some serious propaganda.

[Leviathan41]

We need some serious propaganda.

Did someone say propaganda?

But seriously, that is a lot of new recruits. We need to do something, and fast. In a couple weeks my classes will be over and I will have more time to recruit and mentor. :thup:

[TollhouseFrank]

hey man... remember.... a lot of us have banded together on sub-teams.... especially on F(OC)LD... i'd estimate we have 10-15 members right there.

[Steveo989]

AAR is going nowhere :rolleyes: , also a front page advertisment hasn't happened for ever.

[Steveo989]

Also, many of our new members are joining sub teams. Take that into consideration because we are probably recruiting just as many.

[davekusa]

I think they have contests and give stuff away

[@md0Cer]

May I inquire as to why people say "we need to do something" yet no one can take a few minutes out of their week to join the Folding Mentor Project?

If people listened to some of my announcements over there, as a whole, the project would be recruiting 20-40 percent of the members we contact. The mentors, and the more that really go for it and read my announcement about followups, the more people we recruit.

Just think...30 percent of all new users who join OC and post.


BTW, there is a new branch of the mentor project aimed at recruiting entire communites who don't know about folding.

So in response to the "We need to do something" 's I seem to be hearing more of more often than not over the past 6 months, here it is "We are already doing something. Join us if you like."

[@md0Cer]

AAR is going nowhere :rolleyes: , also a front page advertisment hasn't happened for ever.

I know. :( I am struggling with getting more mentors with the FMP too.

I submitted a front page article on the FMP but unfortunatly a response hasn't happened for ever. :-/


Good luck to yall over at AAR though. :thup:

[Mr.Guvernment]

i will take a read @ that one for sure.

[tenchi86]

Yeah the mentor project is really just well junk right now. You can never tell whos going to read their assignemtns and even if everyone does thats only like 3 people(most people pretty much left). So any one willing to spare a few minutes each week take a look at that. (link is in sig). Also if we need a spy to go over and see how they do it I have some free time. :rolleyes:



Edit: man I was looking at How???'s stats and was thinking just think if we had one guy that put out that much production. Oh that would be nice.

[Mark620]

The first time I saw How???'s stats, I thought that he was a team!

hahhaha thats classic! i love that! we should have that on the frontpage!!! :attn: how cool would that be! mabe even replace/add it in place of an ad or something


PEOPLE DONT CARE AT FIRST

when i joined OC forums, i noticed the FAH part of the forum, but there was no immediate explanation of what the heck FAH was, so i didnt join up for about 6 months!!! 6 MONTHS!! It was partially being lazy, and partially not caring, so i really think we gotta do something to get people to learn what FAH is, and right away, not having to make them go to Stanford's site, or reading some stupid FAQ, we need a quick way to tell then what it is, a basic explanation in preferibly ONE SENTENCE. When i first joined, i also found a lack of easy to find and also very detailed information about the different features of FAH, that got me a lil annoyed. Just some suggestions, im hoping to really put some effort into the community here, but i dont have alot of time since im a student, but im creative as hell^^^ :cool: :santa: :santa:

[davekusa]

I started folding because of the post on the front page of overclocker.com
http://www.overclockers.com/folding3/

Last contest we ran.
http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?p=3306809#post3306809

I used to come to overclockers.com because I thought the articles were fairly cutting edge as to what was going on in the overclock comunity.
Now I think maybe they should change the website name to Laptop.com

[TollhouseFrank]

tenchi... i joined the F@H Mentor program... but still as of yet have not figured out how or where the assignments are given out.

[Seven]

Wow...um.

That's rediculous.
I had to scroll through that list.

We need some serious recruitment, and need it bad. Otherwise we're gonna get left in the dust. I think part of it is that OCAU's school borgs may have kicked in again...which is NOT good news for us.

When summer comes around, we're gonna loose production, but until then we have to keep up the fight, and press on.

Oh no they havent, so that means its even worse news for you.... :cool:

I've seen some really nice flash animations for folding at sudhian...

http://forums.sudhian.com/messageview.aspx?catid=43&threadid=75270&highlight_key=y&keyword1=fold

That's one example. If we have some talented flash guru maby he could come up with some good ones in no time at all?

Mentors, contests, front page action, and anything else we can think of doing to get people in here.

Stanford's servers couldn't handle the load if we recruited with The Nipple. It would be a flood.... :D

[tenchi86]

What I would like to see is like How?? AMD, and some other top guys make a team with like 5 people and whip everyone up. I mean I know that would inclued us but that would be awsome to see.
