I think it's gonna be pretty okay from here on out though- the three kids I got in there now are active and friendly and seem to be sicking around! :D So it'll probably be able to become more of a chatty place if they stay and/or more like them come by. Kind of an Intro To Discussion thing.
Idk what the problem was before... inconsistency, probably. Too many short welcomes and one-off posters, not enough promotion, not enough people to welcome... we don't have to do the giant multi-quote posts anymore, have you seen? It's fabulous!
