$100 New Thread Contest!!!

[Rob]

The one thing AF could really use is some great new content! It is fantastic that we have long time members active in decades-old mega threads and staff still chiming in to every support request imaginable, but we are missing the unique, engaging, NEW topics that were once our hallmark.

In an effort to jumpstart quality content, I'm going to give a $100 Amazon Gift Card to the AF member who creates the thread with the MOST views from now until the end of February. The contest will run through the first week of March to allow threads posted at the end of February a fair share to collect views.

ALL threads from ANYWHERE in the forum are eligible. News, Reviews, Help, Accessories... heck, even the Apple Forum is fair game!

This should add a little fun to the forum while we work on ramping up the new software. Good luck and have fun!

... even the Apple Forum is fair game!

You mean the "Apple Devices" section? I don't see a "post new thread" button there.

You mean the "Apple Devices" section? I don't see a "post new thread" button there.

Um, uh oh. @Rob, you see this?

 

[Unforgiven]

FWIW, I can't even move a thread to that forum.

You mean the "Apple Devices" section? I don't see a "post new thread" button there.

Accidentally set it as a "Category" because I planned to make iPhone, iPad, etc... sub-forums but seems like a catch-all would be a better start.

It should work now:

Apple Devices

Thanks for the heads up!

 

[Windroid]

It should work now

I just tested it, I was able to make a thread. It seems to be working fine.

 

[Steven58]

Too bad I missed out on this. I could have used the cash. (kidding)

 

[The_Chief]

Me too and I'm not kidding... I could have used the cash!

 

[Steven58]

Thank God I don't need the money. I have a new mouth to feed!!!!! (So far her culinary preferences are found in nursing. LOL.

 

[NightAngel79]

Did someone actually win?

 

[treb1797]

I think Rob won. The only new thread that has any traffic is the GIF thread in The Lounge. Congrats Rob

 

[olbriar]

The man is shrewd. There is a reason he owns the place and we just hang out here.

 

[Steven58]

I can win my own contest too! I just take out my wallet and transfer $100.00 from one pocket to another! (Steven runs) (remember Steven runs?)

 

[Rob]

I lost track of this for a few reasons... but I was indeed (finally) able to determine a winner.

It was not me.

It was @Windroid with this thread (please DM me!):

Who here uses Apple Devices?

Who here uses Apple products, especially iPhones and iPads? As for me: I have an iPhone and some AirTags, alongside my two Android tablets.

androidforums.com

It got 173 views in the contest period and has 445 views since it was created.

I haven't been able to coordinate with @Morgan on moving AF forward, have personally been a bit consumed by AI and some other projects, and am just not sure what direction we should take here.

Accepting all suggestions. It seems like small, continued improvements that I can do myself is where we're at with things.

 

[The_Chief]

So, there IS hope we can start an Android thread at iPhone Forums and make $100!

 

[Steven58]

I paid myself 100.01. I did it to self-comfort. I hate losing.
