Uncle Yossarian Wants YOU!
It's me again, the incorrigible Yossarian, your humble narrator and all-around staff man.
Certain people have recently cited a need for advertising. To these people I say; okay then. In a move of unprecidented fascism and 1984-like unity, I would like everyone to pitch in and help in a titanic advertising effort that I like to call "Yossarian's Titanic Advertising Effort". This is obviously not an advertisement for the Leonardo DiCaprio film "Titanic" but just a very large advertising campaign for TRF.
Here is what we, the maniacal spin doctors that run this board, need from you, the foul-smelling, seldom-bathing TRF member:
- Pass the link. If you post on another board, post an ad or mention TRF along with a link to us (please use www.therebelfaction.com/forums for now, not www.therebelfaction.com).
- Advertising. If some of you could go out and actually search out other boards and post some ads, that probably would be good. I'll even provide a well-written ad if you want. If anyone is up for this volunteer here. Or don't. You know whatever.
- Advertising targets. If you know of a good board (or network of boards) in need of some shameless propaganda, email one of your humble staffers. Establishing some more affiliates couldn't hurt. (Boards of all sizes.)
- Banners. We all know that I can make banners, and that Kas can make banners, and that Ahnk can perform puppet acts with his penis, but how about using some of your own mAd InTeRn3T ArTizTic Sk1LLz? Post a banner here and we'll put it up. Actually I think you can upload pictures and such as attachments now... talk to Kas. Here's what we've got right now:
- Word of mouth. Of course not your actual mouth; god knows that posting on a Star Wars message board is a habit of absolute shame that I would never dream of forcing you to reveal to your real-life friends. However, you may want to mention this board to interested people over whatever messaging service you use to discuss your sick obsession with Hilary Duff.
- Content. Jaymach has recently requested to be allowed/been forced at gunpoint to host his massive and actually very useful Force information site on www.therebelfaction.com. This is good because it brings in the sort of sad, sad individual that would search for Star Wars information on the internet. I'm just kidding of course, it also gets us sad individuals that accidentally stumbled on it while looking for Lindsay Lohan photos. Seriously though, if you have or are working on a similar project, come talk to us and we'll see if we can't work something out. Kraken is also doing something like this.
- Physical violence. Just kidding. I would never dream of telling you to launch brutal campaigns of physical assault on members of other boards. Wink. Hint. Can I stop making these jokes now? Does anyone out there like me yet? Anyone? Fuck.
- More ideas. I am not very smart, but as I understand it, most of you are in MENSA or the Super Smarty Geniuses Of The Universe Club or whatever. So if you have other ideas for how advertising might be carried out, please, tell me now so I can copy the text, delete your post and then say it was my idea.
If I can be serious for a moment now, what I want to emphasize is that mindless spamming is not really what we need. "OMG MI BORD IZ SO g00D" is not going to bring anyone to TRF, or at least not anyone with half a brain whose body odor does not possess the ability to kill human beings. We're looking to acquire reasonably intelligent and well-adjusted people to join a community of talented writers.
Please use this thread as a base by which to organize and discuss your contribution to Yossarian's Titanic Advertising Effort. Go forth!
Yossarian Lives!
