Folks, a few fellow staff members and I would like to create and promote an article to use to then spend some $ to run a twitter promotion. @Blag has already been so kind to send me money to help this cause.

What we need from each of you is a personalized summary how why fans should come to DespairFaction.Club (formerly WeAreAFI) and what YOU like so much about it.

You may leave these summaries in the replies or send them to me personally via PM. It’s up to you!

Please send them within a day or two as I’d like to kick off this campaign soon!

The article will be called, “Despair Faction forums live again”.

Haha, I know you won’t use that. I’ll write a real one tomorrow!

Getting closer… this or something very close to this will be going with the promotion to showcase what our forums look like.

Thoughts?

Crap. I forgot to make an article and post the quotes. However, perhaps I’ll just tweet out the quotes to grow our twitter.

Very cool.i like it as well.

An instagram thing I’ve noticed, if you use the tag #daveyhavok it actually brings in a lot of traffic. If you can get Davey to like a post even more (he liked my LFLA post, I nearly died).

Thanks @sayasha I made an Instagram post aimed at Davey.

I wouldn’t know what I would do if they signed up here or even gave us a shoutout. It would definitely be surreal.

We need a logo before anything.

My idea, if only I could draw… a burning black heart (similar to Davey’s heart tattoo with the letters DF (maybe). Although it might look better as just a burning black heart. The DF logo is a blackheart with wings, skull, etc.
