Into The Forrst

The official blog of Forrst.

Everything you’ve ever wanted to know about earning Forrst invites but were afraid to ask

The first batch of invites have just been awarded to a handful of awesome Forrst users. You may be wondering, “I’m on Forrst! How do I earn invites?” Well, glad you asked.

Update: We’re floored by the amount of interest in Forrst! As such, we decided to do something a bit different than previously mentioned; you’ll now have a chance to unlock an invite daily, but doing so will be substantially harder. (The same rules about interaction, having a bio and all of that still apply, though.)

Every Tuesday at precisely 9:10am Eastern (well, maybe not exactly), the Forrst robots will look at each user’s overall activity on the site for the previous week. The exact formula is closely guarded in a safe somewhere in Nevada, but it’s safe to say that logging in and interacting (commenting, liking posts, and so forth) regularly will greatly help your chances of being awarded an invite for that week. Also, you’ll have to have a bio and photo to be awarded any invites.

If you do happen to be awarded an invite, you’ll receive an email notification and there will be an Invite Friends link when you’re logged in to the site (it’s next to Settings). You’re free to send this invite to another talented developer or designer you feel should be a part of the Forrst community.

As always, please direct all questions to kyle AT forrst.com.

Cheers!
