How Do You Rate Your Success On PON?


Recommended Posts

As I read through the many different Topics or Threads,  or what ever you care to call it, I wonder as a Writer how do you Class your Success on the Pride Of Nottingham Web Site?

By that I Mean, do you look at the Amount of  Views your Topic gets? Or Maybe the Replies?  What do you Base the Success of  your Piece on ?

Personally I set myself a Moderate Target of a Hundred Views and Three or over Replies to any of my Topics has a Success.

Do You Set Yourself A Target? Or Aren't you bothered that Much? Are you just Happy to see your thoughts up on the Screen of your Lap Top or Phone?

I Believe that My Best Viewed Post was one regarding the Departure of Jim O'Brien from the Lane, which the last time I Looked (many weeks ago) had over 1,200 Views (small Potatoes compared to some other Topics) But it bought me some satisfaction. Most Replies was my Article about Loan Players Good or Bad? Which received 20 replies. That was My First ever Contribution to PON. 

Then there's the Topics I've written months Ago and Somebody Views one of them and it comes back to My Attention and I get a Certain Kick out of that, even though there are times I'd Completely Forgotten I'd written it!!  And once your Topic has gone from Page One of the PON Site do you keep tabs on it or Do you think,  Well that's Finished time to write something else, I Must Confess occasionally I do look for my Older Ramblings, I think the Furthest I've Gone Back is around Page 8, but this is Very Rare, once it's gone from the First page I usually Forget about it. I get My Inspiration from things I read on the Internet then add My Own Thoughts and Write a Piece About it on Here, or I Add my Opinion on the Main News coming Out of the Lane. Such has the Arrival of a New Coach or the Opening of the Nest (I still think, that's a Lousy Name) Fan Zone or the Departure of a Popular Player.

One Criticism if I May, Some Topics or Threads I Think stay on the First Page for far to Long. I include my own Piece Has Everything Gone Pear Shape At Manchester City? Which was last Replied to on the 10th of October,  I would think some people who see it still sitting there may think. Same Old Same Old and Click off again, if it appears there's Nothing New to Read or Comment On.  So once a Topic as been on the Front Page as it were and Not been viewed or commented on, for a certain length of Time, it should be dropped and placed on the Second Page. But for the Most part I enjoy PON and Interacting with fellow Magpie Fans on Everything Notts, Football and other related Topics.

I admit to feeling a bit despondent when I post a topic and no one replies, it’s a bit deflating but in general I’m not bothered how many people view it or put a reaction on. I do like to see the forum busy with lots of folk posting because it makes it more interesting.

@Wheelbarrow repair man I’m not sure what you mean when you refer to the first page? It depends how you view the forum, do you go to the dashboard or unread posts? I generally tend to favour the unread posts which once I’ve read one it disappears off the list.

If you view via the dashboard then you’ll see your topic about Man City is featured which means it’s stops on the dashboard so people see it and might find it interesting. It has been there a while so I’ll unfeature it now.

I always go onto the Dashboard  I never thought about the Unread Posts, I thought that was something Different. So once I've read something it disappears from my Screen , if I read it from Unread Posts? If that's the case I'll stick with the Dashboard as I Like to Check up on New Comments and Views which may come along, as I've had a couple of Topics read  and Commented on quite a few weeks after I wrote them. How Do you  un feature something?  I'd like to know because if any Topic of mine which Bombs, I can get rid of it so it wont be taking up space on the Site.

@Wheelbarrow repair man If you read an unread topic it disappears from the list but if someone else posts in that topic it becomes unread again so you won’t miss anything.

Featuring and unfeaturing can only be done by a moderator.
