Well I notice that today the number of members signed up to Birthright.net has reached 500, quite a milestone. Welcome all, I look forward to posting new material for you all soon, and enjoying reading everything that has been posted by others. Keep up the good work.
It be nice if even 10% of the 500 were active in posting material! This site would be jam packed with info.
I am afraid, as if so often the case with Birthright mailing lists/message boards only a few are actually active in posting messages and material. Take the Birthright mailing list for example, there are over 350 people subscribed and I get about 1d4+1 messages a day.
Actually, I think these discussion boards are working quite well, there has been a lot of activity, as a few posts using the writer’s guild as well. I shall be intersted to see if it continues to be as active as the months pass, although being the official website is certainly a bonus, as is being linked through WotC.
I would have to agree that being attached to the WotC site is a big help. I would never have come to this site if it hadn’t been for that fact. Over all I have been pleased with the activity. I am not sure if I could keep up with the reading if all 500 members posted each day! 
I have trouble keeping up with all the posts at the moment, especially when I only get about a hour a day online, usually after I get home from work.
Yeah, I’m trying to catch up, but usually I only have time to read half the new topics before I go off. Aw well, I prefer not having the time to read anything, than wasting my time not reading anything
