Will be what, Cow? WHAT WILL THEY BE?!

@Ricer13 has Twitter this week

Happy Monday, everyone! As some of you may or may not be aware, @Daniel Janser from the Istanbul Red Wolves and @MubbleFubbles from the Stockholm Vikings are both stepping down from their roles. Fellas, thanks for your hard work! This means that we have two positions opening up. If you are interested, please say so below!

Great graphic! We love sharing this kind of stuff on Twitter, so we did!

@LastOneUp welcome back to the VHL! Just to clarify, LOU is a returning player from the email list, not Reddit. If you need any help or have any questions, feel free to reach out and ask!

Howdy, @AJW! Just wanted you to know that your graphic was posted to the VHL Twitter account!

Another thing we must consider in this discussion is the medium by which the VHL functions primarily. Allow me to elaborate. The VHL has been operating for over 15 years now. Around the time that the VHL began, blogging was still an incredibly popular medium. In fact, in 2005 it was reported that around 32 million Americans read blogs. At this time, iPod touches weren't even a thing yet. As technology has advanced quickly over the last 23 years, the way in which people are entertained, communicate, and even learn has changed. When I was a kid I would come home from school, log into AIM (as long as my mom wasn't on the phone), and would have maybe an hour to talk with a few friends through written messages. Today, people have constant contact, and most people spend their downtime scrolling through short videos that are usually 30-120 seconds in length. The number of people who listen to audiobooks and podcasts is at an all-time high. A little under a year ago it was reported by the NAEP that only 1 in 3 thirteen-year-olds picked up a book to read for fun. This also comes with the alarming fact that mathematic and reading test scores are at an all-time low in the US. And now the question that remains is this, What does any of this have to do with the VHL? I'm glad you asked. The primary content found on the VHL is written content. Everything from articles to announcements and in-between. Staff writes to one another to discuss problems and create solutions and most reports, like mine that you referenced, come with data points and charts that must be read and comprehended. The VHL, as a primarily writing-based forum, is trying to survive in an age where audio-visual is the preferred form of entertainment. Most people don't go to their blogs to write about their opinions anymore, they go to TikTok. And, if they do write something it's usually within a few hundred characters allowed on Twitter. While this may not create a solution to the perceived problem, I believe it helps us to understand why retention is hard in this field.

That's great! Well done, sir!

Good to see you return @handfullofbubba If you need any help, let us know.

Hey, can you clarify what you mean here?

What @jacobcarson877 said is correct. It's for each person. Recruiting people who actually stick around is a great way to earn good TPE

I legit almost tagged his username instead of writing the actual word. Almost...

Hey everyone! It’s been a while since we talked about the recruiting perks that we have here in the VHL. You can get a fuller explanation of that by going to this article. Anyways, in order to encourage some new members to come to the VHL, we have been approved to offer you some extra TPE as an incentive to bring in new members. Between the S87 Trade Deadline and the S88 Trade Deadline, you’ll have the opportunity to earn up to 5 uncapped TPE simply by bringing people in. If you bring in one person, you get 1 uncapped TPE. If you bring in two people, another 1 TPE. But, if you bring in a total of 3 people or more, you get 5 uncapped TPE. Meaning, for the third person you would claim 3 uncapped TPE. Here's where it gets really fun. At the link above, if you clicked it, you’d know that we have a recruit-a-friend program here in the VHL. Let’s say you get three friends to join the VHL between those trade deadlines, BOOM 5 uncapped TPE. Now, if they stick around and earn TPE, you’ll get even more. Here’s the breakdown that can be found in the article above. 100 TPE EARNED: 1 TPE for yourself 250 TPE EARNED: 4 TPE for yourself 500 TPE EARNED: 10 TPE for yourself Total 15 TPE This is a great way to increase the size of our community and earn some TPE for your own player. You can also try to “reactivate” some inactive members. They can be considered your recruit as long as they have been inactive for three seasons or six months. To make sure you get credit for the people who join, create a thread HERE and make a new topic. Title the topic your username and recruits, so for me it would be “thadthrasher’s recruits”. Inside the thread you can tag the user who you have recruited. If they are recruited within the S87-S88 TDLs then make sure to number them so we can keep track. Once they reply confirming that you did recruit them, you’ll start getting your bonus TPE. To claim the TPE you need to copy the link to where they replied “yes” to you recruiting them. Then, go to the portal, CLAIM UNCAPPED -> OTHER -> RECRUITMENT. After the initial bonus, if you want to claim TPE when they hit 100, 250, and 500 TPE you have to make the update in the forum yourself. When you do, do the same process as above to claim. Now, just a word of caution here. It is against our Code of Conduct to create multiple accounts. Doing so may result in TPE bans, forum/discord bans, or even a permanent ban. So, don’t try it. Thanks for participating and making this league better every day!

@FrostBeard needed @Ahma to tag me because he’s too scared to do it himself

Glad to have you return. If you need any help, don't be afraid to ask!
