Default Alright, How Do We Kickstart the Metal Community On This Site?

A few years ago the metal community on this site was popping, and it didn't really seem that we needed to pull teeth to get people involved. But these days any and all attempts at reviving it have been met with almost immediate failure. It's not because of a lack of dedicated members either. At times we've had as many bangers on here as back then, many of whom have shown interest in reviving the community, and yet nothing ever happens. We've tried big ****, we've tried small ****, and yet there's still very little participation (I'm just as guilty of this as anyone.)

There has to be a way to get things moving again. Any suggestions? Some kind of thread that we haven't tried yet? New ideas for old threads? Sniper teams to "encourage" people to participate?
