Is there going to be new stock in the shop because there is only one item left ?

Yeah, you're right, I concur with much emphasis. The shop seriously needs to be restocked.
Elliot, please see if you can add anything new to the shop. We need to reinvent ourselves periodically in order to encourage our members to remain active on the forums. If we don't...well, they'll eventually forsake GC and this has been the case for many members.

Yes, that would be nice. I'd like to have the Google Hacks book someday.

I might accept 1000000 GC$ for it and not even I have that ammount of GC$, maybe intelliot can buy it of me. *(Intelliot) moderates his cash*

That would be fine if they didn't always end up getting banned. Funny and entertaining usually requires a bit of spam, and that's zero tolerance policy around here.
Eric, I just noticed you have your old account back. Congratulations! (I am unaware if you've already posted it) |

I have lots of funny e-acquaintances that I can invite here. They're much funnier than me. My humour is outdated and stale compared to their's. The problem is, they're not the least interested in Google. The only Google service they use is Gmail...They use A9 to search.

In real life I'm more funny than I am here. I try to be as serious as possible when posting on these forums, to maintain a good image. Not saying a humorous image is a bad thing, I just like to look 'smart'. Yes I know Eric, you are able to be smart and act funny at the same time, some people are just lucky  Go ahead and invite your e-friends, we need some spice around here! Googlers or not, they probably enjoy surfing forums just as you do. |

You're implying that members are active here only because of the GC$. I hope this isn't the case. We've actually considered removing the bonus and the shop entirely. Don't worry, we will warn you if ever happens (and offer other compensation)  |

No, I said that if we don't have anything left to do with the GC$, it becomes pointless. Maybe, just maybe, if we restock the shop with more items, new users will become more enticed and motivated to remain active than they were before. Otherwise, you should just remove the GC$ completely like you said.

Well, yesterday, I went ahead, assuming that I won't get banned for their spam, and invited one of them through ICQ, but he said he wasn't interested. The other groupies are pretty much his "homies", so unless he joins, they won't either.
The other problem which I failed to address earlier is that their humour is not exactly "family-oriented" or "child-friendly", which will not suit GC's serious atmosphere, so many disgruntled users will leave instead.
