@Seanny123 Marketing experts say: create content and share the heck out of it. Make people see your content, and make sure the content is appealing
The problem here is, we don't seem to follow through. We are looking at one another hoping for something to happen
First of all, the mods should add the new close vote reason (this takes care of the content issue)
i.e. the quality of the content
@honi In my opinion, we should focus on neuroscience first. We have some very knowledgeable people in that field and neuroscienctific method stack was started on Area51 cogsci.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2136/… .

Q: Which subfields should we target when trying to attract new users?

Robin KramerIn the chat some of us discussed an approach to attract new users for CogSci. @Honi suggested the following: If you want multiple fields to use the CogSci site, you still need a critical mass from each field, otherwise you won't get quality answers to those quality questions.

@RobinKramer you're preaching to the choir here
you and I have almost always been on the same page when it comes to the future of the site
 
@Seanny123 Then let's form a front and come to action :)

I mean, we were a front last time weren't we?
Can we be batter front?
Can I help you make a better front?

Hi @Ooker!
 
@Seanny123 That is a very good question. One issue is that people tend not to read the chat (entirely). That's why i posted the meta question above
As we speak, I am also formulating a new approach to : cogsci.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2102/…
If we could bring that under their attention that would already help I believe

Ok, I will try to contact the people involved with the Neuroscience stack proposal.
I would like the assurance that if a good faith effort to bring those people into CogSci doesn't work out, the mods here will be willing to tell the site administrators that Neuroscience deserves its own space.

@honi Sounds fair. But wait a bit, that meta post is not finalized yet.
We need a more concrete date imho.

Ok, let me know when you want it
