There's also a mod out there...I forget the name of it...the guy was advertising it on the vbseo forums...but it will actually take the full content from Yahoo groups and post it on your site. So with that mod, you get a bunch of non-members posting these questions...but if you add it in with this mod, you can definitely make it look like your site is growing rapidly. The only bad thing, that mod I'm talking about costs over 100 bucks I think :(

The bad things is that if you take things from Yahoo Groups you know that Yahoo will file DMCA faster than you can blink your eye?

With this sort of feedback I may be adding onto this mod now with a bit of a different approach for "posting automation" from the actual users you create with this, and keep it all free ;).

So here's my thoughts:

1. Create the users with this mod.

2. Save the usernames to a file

3. Input this file into a form on the backend...

Rest of it will come here I'll draw it up later today and see if this will work of my idea and everyone else's, because it's not against the law to pull from feeds, content sources of articles and etc...

I'll get back later on this one and update here what I come up with. Though thanks AzzidReign for a bit more insight on how this can grow even more!

Lovely idea, very imaginative and about time someone branched off into something a little different.

I've never understood the whole drama aspect - a website is private property and people need to come to realise that. It's like my neighbours, who complain It's my property and I'll do as I please.

But alas, this is cool. I may try it, I have 500,000 posts but only 5000 members - in my circumstance I think this could work really well.

interesting.. I can go both ways with this hack.. the good and the bad.

If you don't have .NET there at all for you deepdog let me know since you are the first install I'll build you a release to do for your forums so you can test it out and give me some feedback. I know it works personally I have done this for over 30+ forums for others already ;)

Since you are my number one installed just send to me via PM your forum URL, your e-mail address I can send it too, and will e-mail to you a release. It's fun watching a forums go from 1 - 10,000 in a matter of 2 minutes ;) even shows up as a legit member on your forums to boot!

Let me know if you need me to. If you have it we'll pass it onto the next person then! As long as they give a bit of feedback.
Blogtorank no problem, Im ok 4 now...

But I will take a raincheck my friend...

I also work on several or more forums, but my clients dont allow giving out info...

I like YO mod, Floris and there are a few more like this... :cool:

Some forums owners want quick results at times so this option works great in this case...

Owners sometimes use that PPP { payperpost } option, in some cases it works, but in most situations it sucks...

Your Mod gives the Admins more control over growing a community without shelling out mega buck-o-laa's...

Keep the ball rolling...

People who blame me will be ignored for the full 100%. I have nothing to do with this modification.

Sense of humor isn't there Floris? It's called a joke in a sense ;) not a real blame.

Can this mod add real users as well? Let's say I have 1000 users that I need to actually register so they dont have to....will this be the tool to use?

Yes you can do so. Just input the usernames, their e-mail addresses.

Username1 | Their@email.com

And etc...

So yes you can! It creates a "REAL" user on the forums. Not a fake number.

Yeah I would say adding on about 1k in intervals to the forums if it wouldn't look too obvious, I think it would really even things out some and make it look pretty beefy since your posts outweigh the members...

Yeah the whole drama thing on the net is a given (power struggles), it's something I have never understood neither. However that's why I posted it in the beginning of the posting for this hack. On a side-note I'm working on a solution for auto-posting now where if you use this hack to have them look like real posters :cool:
