GoldenBurr:
Advertise?  How am I supposed to do that without shoving it in their face?   I honestly get peeved when people come out of nowhere trying to poke me to join this or that when I just signed up for a site.   Usually it's overwhelming enough to be someplace new, having someone try and recruit me the second I walk in the door just makes me want to turn tail and run the other direction. X3

Darkstar64:
Well, it doesn't have to be like that. Try making it a little more subtle. For example, Cortex puts a link to the Knights' page in his signature. So you could make some sort of banner for your guild, and link it to this page.

Ayara012:
Yeah, a gentle kind of advertising. Even something like making sure this page is active helps. When I first joined P.U., and I looked at the  different Guilds, the ones I saw first were the big, active ones- Elemental Elites, Fruit Punch, and, of course, The Pokemon Knights! I was enticed by the very idea of getting to join a "Guild", and so I checked out the one I thought looked good-The Knights! Which, actually, was relatively new at that point. If your Guild is way down at the bottom of the page because nobodies posted, a lot of people won't see it. Making sure that your visible is essential, and I think it's a good place to start. (Especially if you're like me, and have no skills at making banners. XD)

Arctus:
Like Darkstar said, if you put something in you signature that helps quite a lot, and you can welcome all the new people to the forums, where they'll also see yor signature. But overall it just takes a bit of time.

And i think all this conversation is helping to keep this guild on the main page of PU

GrizzlyEatsKids:
I can't agree more with Ayara and Arctus, and inviting new members is a great way to build your guild.
