User blog:Awesomeknight/How to fix Brickimedia

From Brickipedia, the LEGO Wiki

Hear ye, hear ye!

Brickimedia barely has any new users. Most users are from when Brickipedia was finally going to become independent. And even at that, barely any of our users are active. This might be controversial, but this is why I think this place is deserted. The social functions on this site are broken. Now I know, this is not a social site, and its main function is to be an encyclopedia. But the social features are what made lego.wiki.com such a big hit! There were tons of comments on blogs, new faces all the time, etc. None of the blogs get any comments nowadays. Also with chat, more people were there. Chat barely has anyone in the present. You come on there and it's silence for hours! Most people are on Skype or something rather than here, which I do not understand at all... Our solution to this is: Fix the social system. Make blogs more easy to find. On blogs, have there be a thing for popular blogs. And the thing for all the blogs a user has made needs to be its own page. And chat needs its own visual thing showing all the users currently on. I know, we should focus on editing, but doing this would help make this site thrive again...
