some feedback:

Soup, not enough traffic really. It's a shame because I enjoyed it too. We're trying to work with post icons and thread prefixes so that people can help us organize mixed sections. We're working on this with creativity because the mix will give a traffic boost and keep it looking from like a ghost town.

Bees, the challenge is that just because it is built doesn't mean they will post. We may have to attract new members who has direct interest is writing. Enticing people to post their work of current members, but if they aren't consistent writers, that option dries up quickly

Social groups are an interesting thing. Unfortunately I (and other admins that use vbulletin) don't see the added value because it seems relegated off to the side. There isn't away to link social groups to a specific forum or thread. Only thing that is currently available is the public messages in the social groups frontpage. It doesn't make it conducive to having any group discussion that is coherent. I understand that the next iteration of vb will have better social groups interaction but still not as good as it needs to be.
