Yes. This would be very hard, but it is probably one of the most important things that we need to do to boost up to level 4.

Are you trying to get us to cuddle with the new users? Because I am all for this! Absolutely Let's do it! And yes, that's acceptable. I know, but like, say hi to people that post in the introductions section, explain things to new people that are having trouble, etc. I've noticed that a lot of people introduce themselves by saying "I'm ____, and I've been watching Dan's videos for _____ months." It's as simple as seeing that post and saying, "Yeah, Dan's cool, but that's not what the moon is about," and then telling them what it is about.. Or even not telling them, but talking to them and making them feel welcome so that they care enough to stay and figure it out for themselves.

We could try to start a Just-A-Little-Anti-But-Still-Pro-Dan-Brown Rally on the Moon, try to get Dan to realize/agree with this, and inform Noobs about what the moon is really about.

I can do it... Since my free tutorials thread is going nowhere... and hardly anyone posts in it.... But I think people find my vlogging style annoying. Or so I have been told in the past. When they told me that, I was like, AYFKM?

You write script we both perform in front of camera. Now we need someone to edit. I can edit with my awesome screen capturing software I use during my pogonews segments... Or you can if you want. But if you write script and perform it, and edit... Then I will only perform... So you can write, we can perform, I can edit... What do you think?

Jon has never been in a triad... and I don't think triads are a vital aspect of the tribe.. Again, Jon isn't in a triad, but he's still fucking awesome Plus, Rob already has a project for triad help... But the 3 of us are definitely onto something.. we can discuss this on Skype. Helmet, idk if I have you as a contact, but add me if I don't. My username is Chelseeyuh.

What does AYFKM mean, I dun the stoopid. EDIT I know now.
I remember Lunar Landings, I don't know if it's still up and running, but maybe we should make a more revamped version of this, maybe like the "Big Brother" Program.

Jon has never been in a triad... and I don't think triads are a vital aspect of the tribe.. *shocked face* WHAAAAT? For real though, they are. It is truly in a member's best interest to go through the triading process. That's all I have to say on that! As for this welcome video, I say go for it! You might want to start a new thread for it in Projects (or discuss it privately over Skype, like Chels said) since it's going a bit off topic. XD If you guys haven't noticed, Dan is trying to integrate himself with the members and become more active. He's been posting mainly in the introductory board, but he's popped up here and there. I think we need to let him do his thing, and he'll be off that pedestal soon enough. He's a smart lil boy. Like I said, while Dan going undercover would allow him to voice his opinions without giving them too much weight, it would avoid the Dan fanboy/girl issue completely. Just go with the flow, guys. =)

Guys... I'm Dan.
Jk, jk. But really, The best solution to the fanboyism is just for Dan to post more. Come to think of it, is worrying how much Dan posts fanboyism? Or... "unfanboyism"?

It is truly in a member's best interest to go through the triading process. That's all I have to say on that! What I meant is, yes, they're important, and a lot of good comes from them, but you don't need to be in a triad to contribute to the tribe. A lot of new members try to get into triads without really understanding what they are. We should teach new members to get involved in the tribe and do things on their own, even if they aren't in a triad. I just don't think triads should be the focus of the tribe.

It is truly in a member's best interest to go through the triading process. AYFKM? Seriously, I would like to know 3 reasons why I should be in a triad! Here are some reasons I feel I don't need to be in a triad: 1. I know many people in the tribe, and meet new people everyday, so don't need a triad to make friends or connections. 2. I work on projects because I like the projects I work on, as opposed to triads who know they have to work on an undetermined project once the triad is formed. I would RATHER work on projects I care about, then on projects that I am forced to work on because I am in a triad. 3. Projects I actually work on are longer termed then the triad projects, such as pogonews. It will continue to bring joy to the pogotribe long after the current generation of triads. A temporary triad project for me would be more of a distraction then help 4. I have been told in the past by many people that I am unpleasant to work with. 5. I have no problem contributing to the pogotribe on my own. Now tell me three things not on my list that will convince me to be in a triad. Or is it all you CAN say? I have reason to believe the admins, who have little control over the triading process as they are not triadmins, are hiding something. It is very suspicious to me that you would assert it is in a members best interest to participate in a triad without backing it up with facts. And if you can back it up, please proceed to tell me three things not on my list that will convince me to be in a triad. It also seems that triads are going to evolve into something else, and that Dan is not truly done with them. What I mean to say is, perhaps it is part of his secret project, or perhaps he is going to interject some sort of change to the triad process in the near future, or perhaps he is going to make a request of previous triads, maybe in the summer when more people are free. In any case it appears there is something about being in a triad the admins can't tell us. I have deduced this with my many conversations with admins about triads. Because of their suspicious activity, my only question is, WHAT ARE THEY NOT TELLING US?
