Grex Coop Item 21: Encourage people to come back to grex!
Entered by cross on Fri Jun 8 01:09:25 UTC 2007:

Please encourage old users to come back to grex!

Many in the grex community have social ties with grexers who have become idle,
or otherwise left the community.  Please encourage them to come back! 
Wouldn't it be cool if some of those old school grexers started logging in
again?  Talk to your friends, and encourage them to come back!

There are a number of grexers I'd love to see come back though I don't have
any contact with them to ask them back.  I wonder if some kind of
'recruitment/retention' campaign could get more people active in the system
[former grexers as well as new ones] could work somehow.  Maybe go through
some of the profiles [or something] of former people and see if there's any
other contact info/email addresses/whatever and then the recruitment committee
can send out an update about grex and an invite to come back and check us out.
This is probably a bit idealistic but heck, if we could devise some kind of
plan, I'd be willing to help with it.

I think that's a pretty good idea, actually.  A lot of these users have
.forward files and other such things.

Perhaps we can steal a page from the credit card/banking industry playbook.

"We have noticed there has been no action in your account for six months.
Therefore, we will begin assessing a $10 inactivity fee every month."

Regarding #6; Then by all means send md some email and ask md to come back.

Maybe link this to Agora?

How many of the earlier grexers still live in the AA area? Perhaps we 
can find out addresses and send them a letter/invitation, encouraging 
them to pay us another visit?

I know Valerie's still in the area; I know that there was some reason 
she stopped coming here [though I don't know why]. I miss her and would 
love to her participating again.

I come back from time to time.  I guess I'm a little late for this
thread.

Don't feel bad.  Only me and a few others were waiting for your response.
