Beginner tips - and great software to inflate user activity!

I found one very interesting software that generates content for your beginner forum! Its built for vb and is easy to install! After installation you can setup tags and system will automatically copy certein discussions from yahoo answers and paste into your forum with the new usernames. This mod is good for two things, inflating user activity and filling up an empty forum!

check how it works at flunkme.com / you can view, most of the content is generated through the API. What is important that yahoo provides this for free and its perfectly legal! Quality of the posts is superb! this goes ahead of paid posting by long leap.

Check out the second link in my signature! and good luck!

Interesting. Does it create the user accounts for you any everything? What if the username is already taken?

Can you config it so that it doesn't cut off the title like that?

yes it does create usernames, it uses yahoo usersnames to register new ones at ur forum! if the user is already taken it will register with 01, or if its user registered through ico system than it will use same user to post...

Ahhh, gotcha. Is there an approval process for the posts? Some of those questions based on the keywords i typed in yahoo answers were hrm.. lame.

I have some misgivings about it creating usernames willy nilly. It would take away from the username base for legit users.

Still an interesting idea.

i bought ICO content.....its good.....added me 50 users and over 100 posts straight away....

its not to make your forum look good, its to make it look active in the beginning, so members dont turn away due to lack of posts
