Okay! I think it's about time to *start* promoting the forum as a coordinated action. We obviously have the link to the forum on the LW yahoo group. I've put it on my forum (but there's like three fans there lol). I've put it on a few other forums where I know there are Australians, both as a link, and just in my signature.
We need to encourage any level of fan to join- people who have never heard of them, people who are mildy interested, fans, and obsessives.
And, we need a variety of locations for them to come from- it'd be interesting if there were any international fans.
We also need to understand that not all fans like to join forums, and not all who join will post. Pity, but it's the facts. And, LW hasn't got a huge fanbase of people who would want to talk about them all day like we tend to. Most LW fans tend to just enjoy them when they're around. Which means we have to work harder to find fans to join up.
So, it'd be GREAT if you'd pass the link to the forum around. The link to use is
colandfrank.proboards56.com/
Passing it on to fans that you know personally, people that you know online who happen to like it, people from overseas who might like it... making up a poster ad for the forums and putting it up in your uni or library... whatever. Signatures are also a good way to promote.
Obviously we can't spam places with our link, that doesn't give a good impression. But, if forums and yahoo groups have got a links section, they'll often let you put things up if they're related somehow. For example, in groups for comedy shows in general. etc
So, lets get the word out!
