That's a great way to attract new users.
Another way to help is to go to http://whoaverse.com/new and vote!

Excellent way to advertise! Just out of curiosity, have we decided on a name for the mascot?
[–] kidarkness 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
The only thing that comes to mind is universe/space-related stuff... Maybe, Nova?
[–] casualwhoaversereader 0 points 3 points 3 points (+3|-0) ago
It depends... is it an owl or a cat?
[–] Teh_Sauce_Guy 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Who?
(and I mean the name "Who?")
[–] polandsstronkest 1 point 1 point 2 points (+2|-1) ago
some type of owl. i imagined it was saying 'whoa! whoa!' instead of who! who!

Great idea; do you have a FB page set up as well?
[–] Atko [S] 0 points 5 points 5 points (+5|-0) ago (edited ago)
Yup, but twitter and FB.
@Whoaverse on twitter and Facebook page

I'd love to help seed content to either the FB or the twitter to attract followers and drive users to the site, let me know :)

Since i cant post new links/text posts (account not in good standing? What does that mean? How did it get that way? How do i fix it?), I'll toss it in here, Just wanted to suggest something that should enhance the community feeling, sitewide integrated live chat! Should be thinking of things that set us apart from reddit other than the lack of scumbag admins selling out everything they can to corporate slime...
[–] docidu 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago (edited ago)
Well, why reinvent the wheel when there is so much to do? IRC does chat right, is integratable through various tools, directly to freenode through their interface,
https://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=channel_name
or there is always mibbit, plus, using a well maintained public irc network such as freenode (will have to look into if this is ok, but experience suggests its fine) means very little additional load on your side, redilly available management tools and protections from floods and attacks, etc, and would allow mods and users to connect with a pure irc client for a more robust experience.

Please, print out the whoaverse mascot and write domain name under it and post it wherever you can (but please do not litter). Student libraries, wherever. I would love to see you take a photo of the flyer and post it here :) We might be making history :p
[–] X7715491 0 points 17 points 17 points (+17|-0) ago
LOL. I love the way you think Atko.
We must start a revolution!
[–] Atko [S] 0 points 14 points 14 points (+14|-0) ago
I have to say that I looked at your comment history and I love the way you think too :)
We can make a collection of them on imgur and tag them as whoaverse, I always loved seeing photos of people using something you created :)

Just want to say I think the site is looking great, and I can't wait to see what comes of it! Cheers!

I really dig the mascot, I always hated that fucking alien

This is to prevent bots from spamming out of the gate. You have to obtain a certain amount of points (or whatever we're calling it), I believe, before it allows you to post freely.
