Why isn't TheSite better publicised?

Well, the question is in the title. I think it would be great if more people knew about it.

    You know the marketing team is just going to sit round with a big pile of coke and spout crap till it sounds like a strategy.

    If you want we could put a link to TheSite on my forum if you want? Might help attract some new people.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru

    I so have one of those too. :D
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    And me :D

    Only problem is that the only people who ever get to see it are ones who are in my bed, as i wear it to sleep... and as if i'm in bed with someone, i'm usually nekkid, it doesn't really work. Anyway, the only person in my bed is Alistair, and seeing as i met him on this damn website, i don't think that's very useful.

    Hmm, rambleness. I should go to bed actually, seminar at 10, wooo :eek2:

    A link to TheSite has now been put on our forum.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Ta! Nice forums! Inspirational ideas for forum topics and heading too ... ;):p
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    in suzi godson's "the sex book" there were quotes from this site if I'm not mistaken. didn't that give TheSite a boost? (or is it too early for that yet?)

    ... I sure got hooked ;)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Wasnt she the woman who used to do the S is for Sex section in the Independant on Sunday?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Yes and the book came out a couple of years ago (2002), I went to uni with the researchers.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I liked that section, its a shame that she doesnt write it anymore, her replacement just isnt as good.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Well I'm a newy and I found out bout this site coz someone mailed me the pullable quiz and Ive now mailed it to others so maybe word will spread.

    You know, I think I just typed in "thesite.com" when I was bored and it got me here... I know that the Youth Enquiry Service near me has lots of stuff about it but since most people don't even know about YES, I suppose that's of little use...
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Not the faintest idea wot YES is, I prob dont have it in my parts. We have shit all here for kids. Im a leader in a youth club and they're all corupt and well in to sex, drugs and drink already and they're only 13/14yr olds.:shocking:

    look a me preaching, I seem like and old one, :yuck:

    me too, i was all like 'i bet some smarmy gits done it too.' and there was thesite
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I found a postcard pinned to the noticed board in my old bedroom a few months after I randomly came across thesite whilst online and the postcard was an advert for thesite but I'd never noticed that before... I just picked it up because I liked it and it had been on the notice board for about 6 months or a year I think!
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I found it when I looked on Yahoo for help with my Personal Statement, I think. Then I joined the forums.

    They did try to publicise it through the Duke of Edinburgh Award... but they reckoned it was evil and stuff :eek:
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I got this free booklet thing about being a student from Barclays when I opened my student bank account the other day, and there is a link to thesite in there. It should be better publicised though because it is a great place :yes:
