Oh, and I'm still wondering about the pledge meter. I think it would be a great tool for motivation. Read my replies below if you haven't already. I want to know what Dusman thinks...
I've been thinking, we need something on RonPaulForums that keeps everyone updated on the money bomb's progress. I know we have an updating pledge banner, but that doesn't show us how far away we are from completing our goal. I think it would be a great idea to create a horizontal pledge meter, similar to the SuperVoterBomb money meter that was at the top of the forum for the last couple of weeks. It would show our overall progress and how close we are to reaching our 65,000 pledge goal. It would also create urgency and show people how far away we are from our goal. Would this be simple to create? I think it would help to rally the forum around the pledge goal and get them promoting the website. Not everybody reads these promotion threads, so we need to put this goal right in front of their faces so they're constantly made aware that there's work to be done. Right now everyone seems to be too relaxed and assured of victory. The pledge meter would show them how far away we are from our goal and wake them up to this reality. It doesn't cost any money to fill the pledge meter either, only their time. It might also be a good idea to have some text on the side of the meter that says something like "Learn How to Promote Here" and it would link to my promotion thread. When could something like this be finished?
What do you think about the pledge meter idea Dusman? I think it would really help to rally everyone around the pledge goal, just as it did for the SuperVoterBomb. Not many people even seem to realize we have a pledge goal. I've seen people on here posting about the money bomb that were clueless. This would make everyone aware of the goal and encourage them to promote the website to fill the meter up.
