Couples suggestions:

Create a forum for all pet sites/avatar sites instead of being so gaia/neopets focused. I know furvilla just came out, and Dappervolk will becoming out eventually.

Maybe less focus on cheating? Since unless we're releasing original content we've got nothing of interest to offer. However, still have a forum dedicated to hacking/scripting/programing. Or maybe even just a known exploits forum?

Forum contest again, since that seemed to make things more active. Maybe member of the month again as well. I wouldn't mind trying to come up with prizes to contribute.

I'd have better suggestions if I knew what kind of demographic you guys wanted to target. Are we going with the focus on LG being a social site? Or do you guys still want to appeal to the niche hacking/scamming/ect market. I suppose both would work really well depending on how it was handled but LG's focus would definitely need to shift to another target and lose it's association with being mostly a gaia oriented site.
