POPCORN TIMEEEEE!
The last week and a half has been explosive @ Omona. You all have done a great job of making posts and encouraging others. Lets keep the trend going! This post is a helpful compilation of the things we learned from my original post.
Things that omona wants to see more of and enjoys:
-Fashion & Makeup posts ex:1, 2 & 3
-Drama discussion & recaps
-LIVE STREAMING POSTS
-Who Whore It Better
-AIRPORT PHOTOS
-Candid or paparazzi shots
-More cultural/technology/non-celebrity news
-Original content. ex: 1, 2, 3 & 4
-More articles on North Korea. ex: 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5
And as always Omona wishes for more nude posts & sex tape leaks.
& What did those poll results tell us? The following information comes from the small group of people (486) who took the time to fill out the poll. Thanks guys.
Most people who took the poll became a member of Omona in 2009 (30.9%) & most people learned about Omona in 2009 (46.5%)
How often do people who read Omona comment?
When it comes to people who do comment, (22.9%) comment rarely, (21.4%) comment periodically, (21.0%) comment every few days, and (5.8%) comment daily. So it was a very close race between people who comment but not all that often.
When it comes to the people who chose the never option, (17.9%) of the people chose the too shy or intimidated option. It was a close tie between being uninterested (5.2%) and not being able to comment because they weren't a member (5.8%).
How often do people submit posts to the community for approval?
Suprisingly (0.0%) submit daily (I swear it feels like some people post every day) while (3.2%) will submit a post a few times a week and (6.3%) will submit a post a few times a month. This was followed by people who don't submit posts because they don't know how (14.3%), people who post a few times a year (18.4%), people who are too shy to post (21.9%) and finally people who are uninterested in posting (35.9%)
How often do these people who took the poll visit?
Of the people who took the poll, (0.4%) said they visit rarely. (3.3%) of the people polled said they visit periodically. The highest percentage of votes came from the people who chose the often option (18.5%) and the daily option of (77.8%)
So it looks like the majority of people who use Omona keep coming back.
IT MUST BE ALL OUR CHARMS!
What about friendship?
When it comes to friendships within Omona (31.4%) said they had friends within the community, while (68.6%) said they did not. (43.3%) of the people polled felt it was not difficult to make friends, while (56.7%) did feel it was difficult to make friends within the community.
I think Omona wants to be friends with each other but is kinda scared. Aww :(
(63.4%) of the people polled have recommended Omona to a friend while only (36.6%) has not.
In conclusion:
People of Omona love posts, they just don't comment a lot. Mostly due to being shy or feeling they have nothing to add to what has already been said or expressed. There is also the possibility that a lot of people who view Omona read the community because they're just learning & feel more comfortable lurking. It can be difficult to jump into a conversation when you feel you aren't as knowledgeable as others.
For people that make posts...
We know you work hard to bring news to the community, but don't feel bad if your post doesn't get a ton of comments, because a lot of people are looking! And a lot of people do appreciate what you're doing. They just need a nudge, and one of the best ways to get people talking is to ask them an easy question they can answer. Ex: If a celebrity posts pictures of their dog, ask members to share pictures and stories of their own pets. Asking detailed questions that only members of that fandom would be able to answer will exclude a lot of people.
Our Google Analytics result for the month of December 2012:
In the past 9 days we've received 205k visits from 91k unique visitors. It's been a bit intense. Hopefully this small example shows you the amount of comments is in no way a reflection of how many eyes your posts reach.
The mods want to once again thank everyone who contributes! Please keep posting & always remember, LJ-CUTS, POLLS & BOLDING are your friends :D
TYFYT! We hope everyone keeps enjoying & contributing to Omona in 2013!

Guide to Posting or: How I Stopped Worrying And Submitted A Post
i REALLY love the new fashion posts. and i like the drama posts too but i always feel left out. i really wish there was like a drama preview post to let us kno about upcoming shows with like brief summary, where to watch/who's subbing etc. we should have viewing posts for the more popular dramas as well. i wish i watched korean dramas otherwise i would totally do it.
that said, even tho some of ya'll get on my damn nerves, i love omona to death. <3
that said, if anyone out there is dying for a news/discussion post for a drama, post one yourself ^^
maybe we should do a drama recommendation post? like "omona, what are your faves??" ik the ones i've been turned on to from other commenters are School 2013, White Christmas, Can We Get Married, and Queen In-Hyun's Man
When I post drama news from now on I'll try to include some basic info too like a plot summary and when it's going to start airing so people know what's coming up :)!
that's what's killing me, i dont kno where to begin! i'll pick one and give it a whirl.
haven't really watched that many dramas this year unfortunately. i'm catching up on king of dramas rn. i'm on episode 6. it is so good!
More info here: http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Level_7_Civil
It's obvious that we have enough people interested, so I think it would be cool to have more drama posts!

i think it would be great to have posts highlighting what's coming up for the seasons with brief summaries and information on where to view them (if they're being subbed, where to download, where the stream online). trailers and the like. i'm just thinking of ONTD and a lot of my decisions to watch new shows hinge on those seasonal highlight TV posts, lol. i would LOVE to have something like that for kdramas.
and posts with ratings would be cool too. it's always nice to see when shows r doing and sometimes i'm inclined to give shows i passed up a chance if the ratings r good, lol.
damn, i'm so needy! ahhahahha!
But lol, you're not needy at all!!! I'm sure that a lot of people feel the same way and it's good to know this :D!!
oh wow! i had no idea! well we can work with what we got. i cant wait to join in on drama discussions.
i rarely finish korean dramas, negl. i cant even remember the last one i finished. bad guy? i liked it but my no. 1 issue with korean dramas is the writing of the female characters. they always start out with great personalities then turn in to waifs changed by ~love~ weeping every time the douche they're after treats them like shit because they ~love~ them and dont kno how to show it.
whatevs. i think most of the time i watch for the good looking ppl and awesome wardrobes, lol.
I think that it could really help the drama community on here grow outside FFA discussion and get people more interested
I'm watching 5 dramas now and I hate that i have no one to spazz with.
Flower Boy Next Door with Park Shin Hye - So far so cute so I'm sticking to it. but the drama just started so who knows.
A Hundred Year's Legacy with Kim Eugene - This one just started this week. I didn't even know Eugene was doing another drama until I stumbled upon a poster of it on Monday.
Cheongdam-dong Alice - started watching it cause I was bored and May Queen was ending so I needed a new drama. But It's super cute and I really like it.
I Miss You with Yoon Eun Hye - deff sad at first but over a good drama. Well i really like the pairing so I get so many feels when I see them doing cute shit. The simplest things like them smiling at each other makes my heart burst with happiness.
