In a forum I belong to, I restarted an activity thread in 2014. For some reason, these type of activity threads weren’t taking as well as others in the forum, but I wanted to give hosting it a try.
In January, three people did the planned activity, including myself. In February, it was just me and one other person. I was feeling disheartened, and I even thought about maybe giving up, but I decided to give it another four months.
Something cool happened today. I logged into the forum to set up the March activity and found four people had signed up to be notified for the monthly activities. I was surprised and happy! I had let them know that the thread was up for March, and they signed up, including two other people. I’m glad and grateful that I didn’t give up!
