What if like every 2-4 months there's an event where we try to get a certain amount of people on the forums (have to have an account and be online) and try to break the 2015 record and if they reach the desired number an EC is given in game. This would make more people sign up (some just for the ec I know) but some people may join and see the forums and how they work and they can be like "wow this is cool, a place I can leave my ideas, respond to others, and talk about the game in general, etc". I do be lmk ieve this would help forum activity pick up a bit.
