I think the idea is that new people would post in weekly threads, but there's no real directing users to that. Did you get directed to that community when you arrived? I can easily schedule posts if necessary.

I think newcomers won't post unless there's sign of life, and there won't be signs of life unless newcomers post.

Maybe a weekly thread posting boring stats or something could be a nice way to indicate it's not a dead community?

Edit: Or what sunshine said, I'm not familiar but that sounds like a problem.

yea you summed up my thoughts pretty well. Since the posts are so old, I wasn't sure if it's still a thing, or my questions would be just going to the void.
