Suggestions:
1) Completely overhaul the dossiers. Don't make them a myspace clone, BUT why not give them a new look, expand them a bit, let's face it, they have been unchanged for years, They look boring. Let's have a new, snazzy dossier system with a choice in themese. eg, Starfleet, Klingon, Staw Wars, whatever. the techies will have a better idea of what is possible.
2) Examine the existing chatrooms. What reason, beyond sentiment, is there in having the D'D and Rotarran? Can't we use those two rooms for something else? They're dead ducks, rarely used and we could be putting them to good use to bring more people in.
3) What happened to the old publicity team? The 'marketing department'? I assume we are making efforts to make sure OTF is well represented on the net - or are we?
I could say more but has anyone else got any suggestions? I'm sure the EC would appreciate the OTF members pumping out ideas, and discussing them

When you compare the two, you can't help but compare the popularity of them both. Over the last 10 years, demand appears to have changed. People would rather a complete social networking site over a chat room. Perhaps it is therefore time to addapt and ask some difficult questions whilst doing so. For instance, is a themed chat room what people want? Personally, I think that this question can be answered by our own membership. no one seems to be bothered which room they are in anymore, as long as there is someone in there.
There seem to be so many features that have been added moving OTF in the dirrection of sites such as myspace. It will take some hard choices if OTF is to grow again though

Points a finger at d'deridex and roterran
Battlestar Galactica ... Dr Who ... Stargate ...
3 good choices for those rooms!!! They would bring in added people to otf ... all that would be required is a bnew face lift, research for the intro page, rank's and armory psot discussions.... it all sounds complicated... however it isnt as bad as it sounds, and otf has enough people with the capability to do somthing with them.
Mini My-space - like dossiers... awesome =) ... have some sort of basic level of customization would be awesome...

Will post somthing in more detail when ive had time to think =)

I blog in livejournal, it's layout just suits me more as there is much more focus on the blog itself.

I'm a livejournal aholic,
I have a myspace at the prompting of my daughter and jump on it some.
I don't have the time to devote to chatting for extended periods of time anymore.
Simply sitting in a chatroom, with virtual strangers doesn't do anything for me nowadays.
I stay in touch with "friends" and let the rest of the world do it's thing.
It's more fun to leave messages for friends and so on...but changing OTF to make it more myspaceesque..ummm, what's the point when we all have myspace/xanga/livejournal/blogger and so on

I don't Myspace for some reason... I think it's evil, but that's me  However, I do LJ and I like to try and keep that as separate from OTF as possible because I need somewhere not OTF (if that makes sense).

Pat, I absolutely don't think we should copy myspace. But there is an opportunity to revamp the dossiers. Some innovative ideas and coding would do the job.

And here are my two cents...
The funny thing about the whole thread is, that many OTFers pray, that MySpace is evil, and now you want to copy it. I don't like that idea.
In fact, the Outpost is such a place for creative minds, that I'm sure, we'd have better things in mind, IF we want to improve our dossiers or whatever. Let's be innovative, because it can't hurt to improve the OTF a bit. But I don't want us to be copycats.
And... we shouldn't change the Rotarran and D'Deridex. I love them.
'nuff said

I think everyone is assuming a little too much about this thread. Rather than copying MySpace, I think that we should start looking at why sites such as myspace are growing at such a rate, whereas the growth of OTF, as a whole is slowing down.
As has been mentioned, there maybe some aspects of these sites that would be beneficial to OTF, there may be other aspects that should be excluded at all costs. It is up to the community to decide what falls where though...

I agree with Babel and Logan. I think that we should look into revamping the dossiers and the unused chatrooms.
Of course we wouldn't want to become a MySpace clone but with a little creativity we could spruce up the dossiers. They are a bit dull after all and that is one area that hasn't been touched in years. It could add some fresh appeal to the old gal so to speak.
As for the D'D and Rott, they are just there for sentimental value, and of course the occassional place to go strictly because no one else is in there lol. I think it would do good to look at some popular new ideas, Battlestar Galactica and Stargate are immensely popular and would likely bring in new folks if we revamped them. Sometimes you have to let go of the past and look to the future.

I didn't know we were at war. Cool! I suggest we combine the best of all our resources to form a strike force of warp speed Jedi and compliment their numbers with a few wizards.

Abe, a couple interesting ideas about dossiers. You've gotten me thinking. *l*
As far as our two ST auxiliary rooms, I have to chuckle. You say use them for something else as though we're using up some sort of finite resource by having them active and are somehow held at five rooms, but that simply isn't the case. We could toss in a Matrix, PotC, and Babylon 5 room tomorrow and it wouldn't make a considerable difference at least so far as that goes. -- New directions are fine to discuss for OTF, but you should all stop picking on TF's red-headed cousins. =P
Getting back to the title of the thread for a second before I go through the rest of the ideas here, I'd like to mention something I said on the EC list a while back: We're not going to do social networking better than MySpace. Just like we're not going to build a messenger service because there are already so many out there (even though I've considered the virtues of it many, many times), we shouldn't be trying to re create the draws of MySpace at OTF. Whatever new features we add should be added because they provide a unique service to our members. I have some ideas along those lines as well, but I'm afraid it's too early to bring them out into the open.
I have to agree with what David (XZ) said back in post #4. OTF is a themed site, and perhaps we should do a bit of work to build on that for a while. What sort of cool, snazzy Star Trek, Star Wars, or LotR resources can we add to our montage that might add to the charm of OTF? I've met some resistance getting support for projects that only included one genre, but if anyone has a cool idea for your favourite whatever that you think would be a nice addition to OTF and have the drive to see it to creation, feel free to shoot me an e-mail.
The main thing I've taken from this thread is that my former bosses rock. We should form a committee or something. =D
Lastly, I'd like to take a moment to point out that I only speak for myself, not the Council. Just because I don't think something is a good idea doesn't mean you've been pwned. ;o)
So thanks everyone for the ideas, and keep 'em coming!
*goes to draft a few proposals for the EC*

I personally think the dossiers are fine, I just don't like the fact it has the American spelling of colour.
Say we go with Stargate and Battlestar Galactica, for a short period of time you are going to get a small boost in numbers.
Using Minas Tirith as a base that you are have a total of 109 active Fantasy affiliated chatters registered and still active since April 4, 2004.
I'm thinking this could be attributed to "dead genre"
Although I am in favour of Changing Rot and D'D
do we think that its going to boost numbers substancially in the long run?
taking a step away from my negative point of view.
I'd like to think that if we go for Tv series that are currently being shown on TV you are going to get an influx of numbers and using some calculations i did a few months ago, you are looking at a 1 in 11 chance of a person returning to become a regular chatter for a 1 month period and a 1 in 273 chance of becomming a one entrance a day member regular face.
I may be completely wrong but thats the good thing about odds and statistics, if your maths are good you are generally right.
But of course nothing is gonna be done if all we do is discuss this on the Forum IMHO.
Unless the Leadership see something in terms of work or a proposal there is not going to be much of a change.
but, lets not run before we can walk, if we are gonna change a chatroom i'd suggest we change one and once thats established we do the other.
I personally would like to see a Babylon 5 one thats my fave Sci-fi show. But if were were going to change one i'd go with Stargate, i'm sure we'll be able to find people willing to Help with the assistance of its creation, including yours truely.
yeah i'm offering services for once in my life =(
Man, Fat
P.s. I'd like to point out i'm a bit of a gambler and i like to work out odds when i'm bored.

Herro!
I think this thread has spun off it's axis somewhat, but that's always fun. So I'll respond to a few dingers.
- I have MySpace, it rawks! I also have FaceBook too, but it has some limitations and I'm not too familiar with it yet. I'm also studying social networks at Uni and using MySpace as a case-study of a virtual network. Some interesting findings! I agree with Eagle though, we'll never be able to out-do these social networking sites (Iain isn't that good) but we can work to improve on what level of internal networking we already have. Logan makes another good point - we should keep an eye on what is popular on the internet. Most of it might not be compatible with us, some of it we might be able to use.
- The Dossier, as far as I'm concerned, is very important in that it gives us all the chance to construct ourselves and transmit some perception of identity. Along the same lines as David's 'people like to show off' assertion, but I think it's more of a case that people inherantly want to be known and to tell stories about themselves. This is what the online profile does. In the virtual world, I strongly believe that this element is crucial when we don't have clothes, facial expressions, football jerseys, badges, cars or shoes to examine people through. We're in the process of making some minor changes to the dossier content including more emphasis on departmental assignments, but an overhaul in display interface could also be considered. If you're interested, have some ideas and some way of putting those ideas into action, go for it! I'd be interested to see anything people come up with.
- New Chatrooms. This has been a topic that has been thrown around for many years. Maybe it is about time we seriously consider a new chat. Of course this would require the addition of a new genre OR a reconceptualisation of how we structure our top-end administration. I'm not against the addition of a new chat, and I think it is important that we time it properly. Opening a new chatroom that is still on air, for example. Anyway, this issue is now before the EC so we will try and hammer out a definitive answer on this and some of the other points raised here in due time.
- FMs statistics. FTW, \o/. Did I say that right?
- Marketing is one of our sore spots, I suppose. I was talking to Andrew about it the other night. If someone out there thinks they'd make a good Marketing director and has a considerable ammount of time, energy and vision to put into advertising our community for no remuneration, let us know! 
Some good points made here. I'm glad we have the forums to send these kind of ideas out there. I can't speak for the rest of the EC, but I'll try to take some of these ideas onboard and think about some practical applications. If you have some specific ideas, feel free to articulate them in an email and we can open some direct dialogue.
Cheers!

Somthing FM said got me thinking ...
Themed chats are too linear, and if they fail, its a lot of work wasted.
I think the lessons of minas tirith should be learned... DOT ... DOT ... DOT ...
Firstly: A chatroom based on a single Theme Limites the chat.
Secondly: People are spread out too much within the chats (i.e. when new people come to the site, they tend to stick to the same themed chatroom constantly, as i can name 5 people off the top of my head, who refuse to enter another chat other then the gerne they registered with)
Thirdly: OTF is a Sci-Fi and Fantasy based community.
With those in mind, heres my proposal... DOT ... DOT ... DOT ... Rarther then renovate the 2 senimental chatrooms, why not make them into a "Sci-Fi" room, and the other into a "Fantasy" room, With the user on log-on having a selection of different "themes" to choose from on log-on? i.e. for Sci-Fi: Stargate - Battlestar - Dr Who - bablyon 5 - Andromedia ...etc and for Fantasy - Buffy Vampire Slayer - Angel etc....
Just my 2 cents ...

To Continue on from what Mark was saying; What really needs to be done is we need to find out what the people of OTF want. I'd suggest a poll of some kind to find out what the members want.
I mean for too long has the Exec really kinda been hidden in their own little world and we the little boys and girls on the street rarely have a chance to offer our 2 cents about what we think should happen.
On the Marketing side of things, the question that needs to be asked is, if Marketing is going to be set up again, what is its main focus going to be, whats is the Leaderships plan for it to be used as, what is goals are.
Rather than having a defunct team just called "marketing" that does nothing but find things for them to do, but as Like all marketing people i've worked with, they always tell me that 90% of the time they are strategising and 10% of the time they are working on the plans they have made.
Preperation is the biggest and most important thing in any Marketing team be it for OTF or otherwise.
Thats my bit about Marketing done.
with regards to brady's comments about should another genre be set up you'd need a type leadership akin to the agents etc.
Just to be slap dash, couldn't you very easisly transfer "ajunt staff" from the other 3 to the new one, they should have the skills of leadership etc from their time working in their respective teams. hence making the them prime candidates. So with that I'd like to think i've solved the Leadership problem =)
yours,

you could'nt have the true myspace , utube feeling here with the PD's ... its the utter and total freedom and disregard for other people and their feelings that makes myspace and utube successful... it would'nt work in otf with the prime directives..
follow what is popular or get left behind???
that used to be called "jumping on the bandwagon" in my day..
I don't think that OTF's should try to clone other sites that
A. Fully fledged bussinesses with a near infinite source of finance
B. already established as field leaders in their area..
it don't sound like fun, more like suicide...
bassically OTF would make a poor clone, and poor alternative to myspace and youtube...
I'm not suggesting that OTF remains the same as it is, but I am suggesting it don't try to take on the market leaders... cuz it would get ate up and pooped out the other end..

This is a great topic, I think it's wonderful we actually have a forum to discuss how to improve OTF.
So it got me thinking, what do I want to see changed most in OTF? Boils down to two things: new members and higher user interactions (ie you can do more in OTF than just chat)
New members:
Are important because
1)they help share the cost of OTF by purchasing member accounts
2)I like meeting new people!
3)When you have a larger population the amount of contributions/interactions/things we love about OTF just has to grow
OTF has always prided itself on "not being another yahoo chat" yet at the same time we have to realise that OTFers are declining. I don't think it's so much a growing disinterest in OTF from old members but part of an OTF cycle- you chat for a while, suddenly you actually, y'know, have a job and you don't have so much time to play online anymore.
I have a two-fold comment on that:
i) As everyone has said already we do need to actively recruit more members
ii)There does seem to be a demand for functions that don't require different users to be online at the same time. What makes myspace etc so endearing is the ability to leave messages, leave stories, pictures etc etc. We can do the same in OTF but you need to know HTML. And I think that's a big barrier for new members. Myspace etc you just click a button and type and it's all displayed. I think more old members would be more actively involved again in the site if we had more such "type and save" functions.
So possible solutions?
Marketing
1)I was on Comm's marketing team a looooong time ago and let me tell you it was no fun posting about OTF on different sites every week.  Unfortunately however it's a necessary evil. What would be interesting would be getting OTFers' input on how they found the site in the first place. Where have we been getting the best response?
2)How do we recruit people OUTSIDE the ST/SW/LOTR genre? I initially came to OTF because of Trek but OTF is more than that these days. I like XZ's idea of having a separate chat with choosable themes which would encompass a lot more shows. That would indeed be a big draw.
Also, where are we with partnering with other sites? A lot of OTFers enjoy fanfic, related games etc etc whom we could potentially partner with or do joint marketing with. Obviously we don't want ugly ads everywhere but we could have a site listing out some of OTFers' favorite fanfic sites for ST/SW etc and ask for a reciprocal banner on their websites.
More buttons
Dossier change! Highly-welcomed. Again, ease of use. I can muck around with my dossier but I'm too lazy to sit around and play with HTML for a couple of hours. And I actually know how to use HTML. Some useful things we could incorporate:
1)A code that allows easy uploading of photos. Maybe have an OTF account at photobucket and have a code so that you can press a button, upload a pic from yoru desktop onto photobucket than have it displayed in your dossier without you having to do anything
2)Blogs. I lurrrve blogs. A feature to link to personal blogs or favorite blogs or even having quotes from them?
3)Decoration. I like having a Trek theme, SW theme etc. Dossiers used to be more customizable but people were really doing ridiculous things to them so it got stopped. Bring it back! Have a button to change dossier background perhaps but make the background either a)from a select list of options or b)linked to an online image with say a size limit.
3.5)This goes for the same with forums. I personally find them confusing and I know I'd contribute more if they were more delinated eg different links for general chatter, ST talk and so on.
4)Webspace. How do we make them more customizable for members? Less freespace more tripod if you know what I mean. I don't want to start a coding project but it'd be nice if we could put up links so people know what they can do. An OTF blog feature? Why not.
My five bucks guys

I believe we should turn the D'Deridex in to a Stargate chatroom, and I would pour my heart into turning this chatroom into something stargate.
I like Kayana used to be in public relations where we went to a variety of sites and dropped otf's url.
We could also make one main chatroom, with a theme selector.
Select Theme: Startrek, Starwars, Fantasy, Stargate. And have another room for those who do not want to say participate in say a trivia and want somewhere else to chill.
And about the dossiers, we need to spruce these up. Maybe change the layout / style.

I like the idea of a theme selector.

I'm still down with making a Bleach room!
And fully customizable (sp?) dossiers ftw! \o/
